Five teams in the running for the three remaining spots, the Evil Empire having taken one already, duck for cover!
Actually thinking about it, if Waikato and the Bay both get bonus point wins and Wellington wins then Southland may not make the finals. Waikato, Hawke's Bay, and Southland would be all on 41 points so it would go to point differences.
Makes for an interesting evening. If the Bay get a five point win they are pretty much in the finals regardless of the Auckland v Waikato result [/b]
I'm getting confused as hell so what happens if Wellington lose? I thought we were sweet for the finals but after taking a look at the points table nothings guaranteed.
Whatever happens it's been a massive season for all teams involved it's pretty sad to think this might be the last weekend that some teams play at the top best wishes to them all thou.[/b]

I don't really know. I don't think the people at North Harbour really get in behind their team. It is also quite a posh area, I think there are lots of sailors around there. That is probably the best answer I can give.Why are North Harbour doing so bad, is it fans turning to league or something. I thought they were a stronghold.[/b]
Same old story we get ditched by our All Blacks and now face the hangover just like Canterbury hopefully we can sort it out before next weekend because Southland are gonna be hard to beat being the best defensive team this season.We should have won by more last night. We controlled that game but just couldn't put them away. It was a bit more nervous then I liked. Anyway, we get to play Southland which is good. They are probably on a bit of a hangover from the Ranfurly Shield and we beat them comfortably earlier this season.[/b]
