[QUOTE="Xapi, post: 847528, member: 56815"] I think there's a chance that both these teams end up in the playoffs, but there's also a big chance that they end up fighting for one spot. If that is true, then this the sort of match that Sharks can't afford to lose. So I agree a bit with Cruz Del Sur, if Sharks win, specially if they get no bonus and the Jags get a losing bonus, the end result is practically a stalemate, and the Jaguares will have the chance to even the odds back in Buenos Aires. However, the Jags are well rested, and should be the ones with less pressure for a result, so if they can pull off the (mild) upset of an away win, they'll be in a great position to qualify to the playoffs, while the Sharks will be looking at the prospect of making a few upsets of their own (Stormers, Jags @ Buenos Aires), or a whole bunch of bonus points over the Jags, to make the cut.
