    Great work to get the captain's name wrong.

    Blues champions. Yeah the boys.

    Nice to have some silverware. Carlos comes back and they win a title - boom.

    Canes played that final smartly. Blues not surprsingly finished the stronger.

    Didnt seem to be the injury toll of last year for any of the teams.

    Credit to Sam Nock for stepping up in the final. Great tackle at the end.

    So the Blues to beat the Landers in the first round?

    No pressure for the NEW favourites. 🙂

    Now the jumpers are pissing me off - why the fuck are the Canes playing in blue? Idiots.

    Makes about as much sense as the Green Highlanders jersey.

    Makes much LESS sense really.

    Name Super teams with green jerseys?
    Clan (alternate), umm ...

    Name Super teams with blue jerseys?
    Blues, Clan, Tahds, Rabble, Brumbles, Bulls, Stormers, ...

    Add the reds to that list now too. Even they had more blue than red and they are named after the bloody colour.

    The guy sitting by himself on the park bench looks an ideal candidate to start for the team at first five. Certainly rather ponderous in sizing up his options and definitely not looking for support before taking somewhat belated action. Wonder if they managed to sign him up to a contract in the aftermath.

    Are we sure that wasn't Rob Thompson?

    On trackside radio on Saturday morning, Nisbo tipped the Blues to win and took the $7 himself.

    Pretty tidy tip

    Also had Blues to win as an outright bet.

    Played totals for much of the tournament and found them pretty low to be honest - 26.5 to 28.5point range most of the time. Did pretty well generally taking overs for any game where it was an NZ team vs anyone else and then unders for NZ vs NZ games

    The Brisbane Global Rugby Tens has been canned for 2019 because of the likely high restriction of players' availability ahead of the Rugby World Cup in Japan next year.
