[QUOTE="smartcooky, post: 798682, member: 20605"] The problem in making predictions is that one point could be the difference between winning your group and not, which has consequence far beyond just one place. Look at what happened last week. The Crusaders were in top spot on both the NZ table and the overall log, on the same number of points as the Chiefs who were in fifth. The Crusaders win without a bonus point, the Chiefs win with a bonus point so they zoom up to first, while the Crusaders slide back four places back to fifth, past three teams.... two of which lost, [B]and one of which was the team they beat!!!!! [/B] This is just one illustration of how ludicrous the current set up is, and how difficult it is going to be to make predictions. [/QUOTE]
