    Really looking forward to this.

    Just hope they get their act together on broadcasting rights and we don't get the SRA shambles we almost had in the UK.

    @machpants typical - Blues get Brumbies and Reds away.

    Before SRA you might recall that beating Australian opposition wasn't an issue. The Blue's problem was they couldn't beat any NZ teams. Now that they're capable of the latter, one can only assume the former will be a doddle.

    Nice thought.

    Blues fans won't have as much faith as you.
    You never know though, the Black craps aren't. We have decent cricket teams in all three formats, so anything is possible even for the Blues.

    Am I a fluffybunny with all sorts of kiwi rugby bias when I think we'll all smoke the Aussie teams?

    Definite hyperbole from me but the errors in Aus rugby seemed to come thick and fast whenever I watched. I thought the skill levels in Oz were pretty average, but time will tell i guess.

    Never feels right writing off Aussie sports teams but I certainly won't be tipping them.

    damn ain't that the truth. We have come such a long way. Long way to go, but we are no longer the cellar dwellers of previous years. I expect us to do well - but a BBBT coached Reds side at home will be tough. Looking forward to teh comp to be fair

    @taniwharugby we kinda do though. We're going to smoke 3 of the 5 teams, and drop a game or two to the other two.

    Rotation of the starting 23 for the NZ teams will be interesting, I think the team who wins this comp will be the one with the best depth and smartest use of their squad.

    I think there is an air of unpredictability to this SR TT that will throw a few results, especially any team that has to travel to Perth. Squads have changed a fair bit since 2019 and that Super rugby campaign for many teams was managed with the RWC that was to follow.

    In isolation both comps have served up some awesome rugby and some upset results.

    Wooden Spoon SRA means they were never counted in!
