All this weeks fixtures are a repeat of 2 weeks ago. No one ever accused NZR of having an imagination.

@kiwimurph Saders missing Ennor and Moody though. Could be quite telling.
Good to see the Chiefs spreading it around with a big opportunity for several fringe players. Hope we can see Wrampling soon and on the wing. -

I love having rugby to watch, don’t get me wrong, but this is shit. We literally just played these guys.
With nothing but NZ derbies, this competition sucks.

It's ok, you've got your Aussie sports NRL and AFL to watch. You don't need to pretend to be a rugby fan, we'll get by without you.

Less chances for the Chiefs to scrum after knock ons.

Ok one reserve
Crusaders 6 + 2

Looking forward to this. Bit miffed that the Cheifs get a home crowd whilst our home dump was almost empty.
The Chiefs haven't played at home since May last year against the Brumbies. All the other NZ teams have at least done that since then, even if in front of no crowd.

Not sure that you need to be a mindreader to expect Ennor to shell a catch running onto the ball. Averages at least one per game.
Moody doesn't have the safest hands in contact either. -
@mariner4life let’s add 3 new teams and let the Saffa teams go north to shake things up and “reinvigorate” the comp, just so we can have yet another NPC match with a few slightly better players.
Super rugby yay….

I rarely bet against a Crusaders win. But this looks a fairly even match up. What's Brewis like. Maybe the Crusaders backs won't have a dominating forward pack this game
Chiefs will be looking to dominate up front first and foremost. They know they can do it.
It will be interesting to see how Robertson counters the Chiefs tactic of keeping the ball away from Jordan and the back three (or at least not giving them time with it).
