4/4 away wins and the Bulls to swap with the Cheetahs and move into 5th and the Sharks to overtake the Lions (until they face WP ;P). Maybe I'm being overly bold? How **** are the Kings? SARU should put the Pumas into Super Rugby rather. If the Lions can get their best players back from injury and lean heavily on the Pumas (for depth) and maybe get their (Pumas) coaching team involved they could be dangerous at home next year in SR.

Always nice to have the log available and we are nearing halfway;

It's not going to get any easier from here on out. All the teams now play the other teams who were in a different pool.

The Blue Bulls must play the Cheetahs, Sharks, Pumas and Griquas after this week's game.
 
Bulls were really helped by the losses of the Sharks and Cheetahs the past 2 weeks.

BMH put a bunch of names on the dartboard for the backline I'd say. Glad to see the Esterhuizen to flank experiment is stone dead. Heimar out for a few weeks, so good chance for the lad to step up. Also glad the Jordaan-Sithole midfield experiment is over.
 
How about this weekend??

Bulls winning comfortably, but again without a bonus point.
Cheetahs and Sharks drawing 30-all in a very entertaining game.
Griquas showing once again how tuff it is to beat them in Kimberley, to give the Pumas only their 2nd loss so far.
And then the Lions beating WP 35-32...

Armand van der Merwe was amazing. The little burly hooker of the Lions played one hell of a game!

And Stormer, did you manage to catch Boots & All last thursday?? John Mitchell asked a question you and I have been asking a while now: "Why hasn't any of the big unions snatched up Marnus Schoeman". John Mitchell was full of praise for the Griqua fetcher, and said he hopes to see him feature during next year's Super Rugby Tournament.
