is there an example this season where someone received a red, but then had it mitigated down by the citing commission/received a yellow, then had it upgraded to a red?
Hunter Paisami for Reds earlier this year. Yellow - off field review - stayed yellow. Cited - multiple week ban
That fucking TMO deserved a few weeks off too

Force have a pretty tough run home: Chiefs (a), Blues (a), Brumbies (h), Drua (a), Waratahs (h). Can see them dropping all five of those games - but they most likely win one or two.
I think the Waratahs, Force, Hurricanes and Blues all have pretty even chances of making the finals. The Force and Canes have tougher runs home (but have better PD at the moment).

Looking more and more likely that there will be four Aussie teams in the playoffs - and that is absolutely a good thing for the competition.
Maybe I am on my own here, but fuck the 'competition'. I want the Kiwi sides to dominate.
-
@Crazy-Horse yes generally I prefer that too, although I am intrigued by the Force doing well this year. Kiwi outcasts
Moli, Ekuasi, Tomkinson & Prinsep. 1 of the best rising players in the game Tizzano mixed in with cult figures Harry Potter, Robertson and Dolly -

@frugby One of the Hurricanes or the Blues might still edge out the Waratahs.
On evidence of the way the Blues and Canes are playing I just don’t see it. The way the comp is going, I think the Tahs/Force get two more wins each, and that might be enough.
-
This is quite interesting - the Brumbies and Hurricanes have introduced a new trophy between the two sides to be played annually over ANZAC weekend. Named the Captain Shout Cup (named after Alfred Shout) this will go on the line for the first time when the two teams clash on Saturday night in Canberra. I hope this means we can finally host the Brumbies in NZ after playing what feels like our last 5 or so games in Canberra.

I still think mid 30s will get you into the playoffs. It's going to be a shit fight for 5th and 6th in my view.

No points for us this weekend then

It's a graveyard for us so highly doubt it.
