Those are my picks as well (although I hope the Waratahs win).
Could you either way. Force will be tough for the Brumbies. First home game in 4 years. They and the crowd will make it tough going.
 
I love how super rugby just lives up to all stereotypes,
Tons of tries (three in the first 14mins)
Absolutely terrible refereeing (Reds' second try was as forward a pass as you'll see, but the TMO said it was fine)
 
Mad there's no official broadcaster over here.

Very Australian scrums.

Would you... Would you prefer good scrums and no tries?
 
Where did a I say that?

I said it lived up to stereotypes, not that that's bad.
 
Sorry was conflating your comment with the scrum one above, a little

The optimist in me hopes that this is not "the end" as far as Sanzaar on UK TV goes. But it's not looking great.

Pure commercial arguments aside, I can't understand it.

Haha, fair

I enjoyed it for what it was - drubbings like that don't have the same impact when you're not invested in either side, but there were some nice tries and it was good to see JOC playing well

I was surprised by Kearney. Pretty solid performance from a 35 year old.
 
Indeed. No broadcast TV deal in the UK or Ireland for either SR series. Oh well. See you next season, SR.
