[QUOTE="The TRUTH, post: 96863"] So who's your pick Dumbo? dont rate the Brumbies this year? The only teams i dont give a chance of making the finals this year are the Lions,Cheetahs,Stormers and Highlanders.The rest should really be eyeing a spot in the finals this year it's that damn close! Good call on Kahui, he's definately one to watch.The Chiefs team actually looks very good this year but as you mentioned they have Lavea.... so they're screwed!. I picked the Brumbies because i think they have one of the most well balanced teams in the comp with a good mix of youth and experiance.They are gonna need to finish top two though because i dont fancy their chances of knocking off the Crusaders and to a lesser extent the Hurricanes away from home. It's also the final year for Gregan,Larkham,Paul? and maybe Mortlock... so they'll be giving it their all to finish off their Super Rugby careers with one more ***le. FR: 1.Hendo 2.Paul 3.Shep Thats a pretty good front row with the best prop(Shep) and hooker(JP) in OZ atm but they'll need to stay injury free in this area with the lack of quality replacements they have. SR: 4.Campbell 5:Chisolm 2 young talented locks there who should be capable of competing with most SR's in the comp. They also have good cover in Adam Wallace-Harrison. BR: 6.Heenan 7.Smith 8.AWH replacements: Hoiles Tawake Salvi Awesome back-row there with heaps of depth. I'm expecting another huge year from Heenan who should be partnering Smith and Rocky in the Wallaby back-row this year. Halves: 9.Gregan 10.Larkham replacements: Phibbs Burgess Huxley Lealiifano All class.... good replacements aswell Centre/Outside-backs: 11.Rathbone 12.Fairbanks 13.Mortlock 14.Gerrard 15.Huxley replacements: A.Ashley-Cooper A.Faingaa Fainifo Playford A good mix of established internationals and future stars, plenty of meat pies in that backline.
