The Chiefs are in 4th place but have 28 points, just 3 behind the Hurricanes.
The Sharks are doing well tying with the 3rd best team the Bulls?
The Brumbies are the only solid OZ team but the Warratahs are sure to get better soon.
Our backline play is just not up to standard. Same story each year but the penny never drops. Instead of skill training it is creatine and gym. Once our backs get over 100kg (or equivalent Height to weight ratio ) they lose their stepping ability, as well as thinking ability, passing ability and any other skills.

2. Chiefs                    28

3. Brumbies               24

4. Highlanders           20

5. Crusaders              19

6. Bulls                       19

Yeah, it is crazy the way teams get ranked taking into account the conferences, e.g. Bulls are ranked 3rd but on points earned they should be 6th. Chiefs should be the second ranked team and not in the wild card, etc. Looks like the administrators stacked the deck to ensure at least one team from each conference gets in the finals.
It may mean that teams that really earned their place in the finals will play a few weak teams. Tying to keep the fans of each country happy I guess. In some countries we would call that institutionalized corruption.
