The Mighty Stormers are coming for you....be afraid, be VERY afraid...

Oi, shitting bool, look like mighty chief got caught in bad wind...bad wind called hurricane. Door open for jarpie tribe to go top of table, hahahe...

Mighty Chief smoke too much pipe, start to choke. Jarpie tribes look with much interest and amusement, lol.

On a serious note though, I really enjoyed the game especially the first half. A great display of positive play with both teams having a go. The final decision looked like a definite lottery as there was no clear evidence that the ball was grounded on/over the line....Canes were quite lucky there. The way things have worked out, I can't see the Stormers not winning especially if they get Etzebeth and Vermeulen back.

You won't see Sitting Bull until his teams next win......which is next year.

...haha....Eggon face getting cocky now.....Mighty Chiefs still in pole position last time sitting bull looked......first team to qualify.....NZ champs....still King of the Road despite hitting speed bumps....friday the 13th unlucky for some but chequered flag just around the corner so buckle up now mockingbirds...watch out now....Mighty Chiefs had final tune up and will run you over.....ready to scrape yarpies out of the grill...haha

There is a huge problem that could upset the Mighty Chiefs and that is that they could end up second on the combined log.   That could spell problems for them.  They may end up having to play the Crusaders in the second semi-final.   That could end thir run of luck, because they were cheated out of a win over the Hurricanes by a dodgy dcision by the TV referee - who like the public could not see the ball being grounded in the final try - all that to give the Hurricanes a chance to get into the play-offs.   Beware of the New Zealand referees - they are a dodgy lot.  Very poor.

That bit of shennanigans could cost New Zealand teams having to travel extensively and it would be problematic.  I think the Sharks could end up no 5 or 6 on the log and they could have to travel to Australia to play the Brumbies.  Bad one that - if they beat the Brumbies - they will have to travel back to SA to play the Stormers the next week.   Travelling like that is indeed a handicap.   If they manage to beat the Stormers - they will have another trip to New Zealand - cannot be done successfully.

However - depending what happens today - we may yet end up having two SA teams in the final.   Worse news for all New Zealand.   Play will start soon on th first of the games today and I am off to watch rugby all day long.

.....Mighty Chiefs battle hardened for challenges ahead...happy hunting
