SA teams had a bad start to the season last year, but got stronger as the season went on.
This year SA teams have started off much better, despite losses over the last 2 weeks or so - mostly away games.

SA have all 4 teams in the top 8.
As more home games happen, SA teams should start to move up the rankings. 

Leinster is strong, and Ulster are consistently good. Cardiff is solid

Munster has had a bad start to the season. As has Edinburgh, who is usually one of the best teams.

The other team are not strong teams

That table is out of date.
Here is the current table.

https://all.rugby/tournament/urc/table
SA teams of Champions Cup to think about this year so they will be a bit more taxed when it comes to resources.

I'm just hoping Connacht can go on a run now that absolutely horrendous open fixture list of Ulster, Stormers, Bulls, away and then Munster, Leinster at home is out of the way.

Still going be tough for them, I really think they got shafted with the conference system of having to play the 3 Irish provinces twice and then even if they make top 7-8 could loose out of Champions cup if the Scottish/Italian and Welsh Shield winners finish below them
