Super Rugby 2014: Weekend Teams – Round 13 (Final Revision)

Published 8 May 2014 | By grootblousmile

Super RugbyIt is Round 13 of Super Rugby 2014 this weekend! We have 7 games in Round 13, with 2 games on Friday, 4 games on Saturday and 1 game on Sunday.

The Waratahs have a bye weekend.

In June / July 2014 the Antipodian teams will catch up in played games with the South African counterparts, when the South African sides sit out for 1 Round.

The Combined Log will therefore be skewed for the majority of the competition and one has to question why individual countries are allowed to start such a long competition ahead of it’s rivals. In 2013 the Australian sides started a week early, but at least they had the excuse that they needed an extra week in the middle of the year to prepare for the British & Irish Lions series, which they lost.

    Looks really nice seeing ‘Carol’ on the top of the Super Rugby 2104 log

    Who will have a go at toppling me this week??

    I am ready for you! Afraid

    Well, I think this is possibly the least obvious round since the tournament started on superbru.

    There have been so many ups and downs, there are no real winners that stand out!!

    Really glad I do not have to put money on this! 🙂

    Where is everyone?

    Don’t tell me you are all actually working!! 😉

    Has Puma got rid of the builders yet and moved into his new penthouse suite in the balmy Umshlanga village?

    What is the news?

    5 & 6 @ MacroBull:
    MoooosaBull,

    Thanks for the “Heads UP”!

    I did the Article at 00:40 this morning, so the mind was tired!

    Difficult choices on Superbru, but my picks are in.

    ALL team sheets now complete!

    Hondo on 8 May 2014 at 1:13 pm

    Bulls – Stormers: bulls by 7 to 10, the Bulls can rely on Joubert to assist them while in need
    Cheetahs – Force, Peyper is there to help the Cheetahs, expect a close result
    Sharks at Brumbies: go with the Brumbies, a Kiwi Ref will keep it tight for the Sharks
    Lions at the Highlanders; the Lions back line selection suggests they are prepared for a soccer game rather?

    @ Hondo:

    Why the wink?

    Are you trying to pull the wool over our eyes? 😉

  • 13

    robzim on 8 May 2014 at 3:30 pm

    @ Blue Bird:

    The reason for the wink is his not so subtle reference to the “the race issue” .

    But he is right as far as his picks are concerned imo.
