Super Rugby Round 6 2012

Well folks, round 6 of the Super Rugby comp. just whizzed by and my team, the Hurricanes took a thumping from the Cheetahs from SA. Its was looking all rosey @ 32-10 to the Hurricanes during the first 1/2, but i guess someone forgot to tell them that they have to play/tackle for 80 minutes to win a game. And as u can see from the vid above they lost. However, the season is long and hard and far from over. Also, some people write off the Cheetahs but they play a great brand of free flowing rugby, pushing the Crusaders close the wk b4 and will probably do so to quite a few other teams. And lastly, b/c its a long injury prone season, the coaching staff elected to 'rest' a few experienced players for this game and i guess in hindsight that may have been a tad foolish.
As for the other kiwi teams....well the Auckland blues are having a rough time with injuries but really, their catchment of players is huge and there is the player draft also, but 1 win from 5 games isn't good. The Chiefs are looking really good and so are the Highlanders who don't seem to be suffering from injuries, both having good squads to back up the top 15 and also, lets give a hand to their coaching staff. And then theres the Canterbury Crusaders, who u can never rule out.

The Cane's will have to win this weekend to get their season back on track, but the Sharks will be tough.
