Props... will be interesting for the Canes to try and combat the Bulls combination of Matfield and Botha, this area again goes to the Bulls (best of luck to the Canes though). Loose Forwards: Collins, Masoe and So’oialo vs Spies, Wannenburg and Cronje. I'm going for the Canes on this one, the Canes loose forwards could be the dominant factor... Half's: du Preez vs Weepu... going to be interesting... my vote based on recent form is for Weepu. The Backline... this is where it will be interesting, the Canes have a fast passed backline and the Bulls have good defence... if the Canes can cut out the errors from the past couple of weeks there could be a lot of fireworks in this game. Easily the game of Round 6. [/QUOTE]
