I like the fact that advertisers have tried to change the name of Loftus Versveld stacks of times and none of them have stuck. It’s been Minolta Loftus and Securicor Loftus but everyone still refers to it as Loftus. Jade stadium could take a few hints, after they’ve changed their name more times than Frank Abignale. AMI. Catchy.
Been trying to talk up the Brumbies to myself. A bunch of indicators are going for them, having conceded a full 100 points less than the Bulls; having beaten 3 Saffer teams this season to Bulls 1 for Aussie teams. Even to the point that maybe if that penalty try hadn’t been allowed last week they might have been in the game. Ultimately, I think the Bulls are playing at home and they have at least won the last two games and are gaining confidence. And with the Brumbies one eye on the game and one eye on the plane, Bulls to win by 3.
Force have an injury list the likes of Rollerball. Only Giteau as Jonathan E remain to fight off the Hurricanes at home. Force managed a coup last year to pip them on the line by 1 point but the Canes were a different beast then.
Looking back at the Hurricanes games, they either loose by 7 or win by 28. I can’t see this going that high, so Hurricanes by 14.
