    Actually looking at the points difference. Tahs or Canes if they win could be playing at Orlando. Unless Tahs win with a bonus they go to Newlands. If Canes win without a bonus they come to Orlando.

    Going to be interesting. Especially if the kiwi sides come. They lost all their games here they will want to make amends. Going to be a huge battle.

    That Tahs and Bulls game too was one of the best games in the Tourney. Could we see that again from the Tahs today and in the semi?

    Going to get a stong coffee.
