with this being a saffa site with so many locals ( and no im not talking about u redsneck u try hard) here, i was wondering who our neutral brus would be wanting to support???
everyone likes an underdog, and the brumbies have a similar albeit a more diluted travel scgedule compared to the sharks a year ago, so they can also garner the sympathy vote, but would the saffa peeps really want australia to have more super rugby titles then them???
so i ask u, who are u cheering for this weekend????
who ar the saffas backing this weekend??? o_O
Of course its the underdog .... who did ya support last week ?
Go Jake !
@blobok,
for me it didnt really matter, coslike last year, i said the winner of the chiefs crusaders match was going to win the spXV, :oD
forgot about the jake white factor though, thats sure to get a lot of saffas rooting for the brumbies.
Chiefs are the safe bet , but I think many thought the Bulls at home would be a safe bet. Jake White is the only part of the Brumbies that may endear them to some. Not me. Go Chiefs, based on their style.
JW and The Brumbies
England to go 3-0 up in the ashes
India to destroy Zimbabwe and win series 5-0
Chicago White Sock to beat Detroit
Chad le Clos to bag another gold
Kings to beat the Lions by more than 7
Arrows to beat Ajax
Stars to beat Wits
SA to beat SL in first T20
Adamek to knock out Guinn in round 7
Chiefs to beat the Brumbies by 5 points
I need sleep, gonna be a busy weekend
I'm not South African of course but I pick the Chiefs :) No surprise there.
Sasuke San: are you keeping track of these picks, if not I can do it. So far it is 5 for the Chiefs and 2 for the Brumbies.
I'm English and I'm going for the Chiefs.
So far its 9 for the Chiefs & 2 for the Brumbies. I will keep the list of who selected what team just to make it interesting.
I thought it was more a question of who you would like to see win .
You wouldn't be too far off track with that assumption Blob
Hey Blob
You don't seem to be that much of a serious guy, so why you look so down in your profile pic?
Bad mewd today?
I could pawsibly assist you in cheering you up, I can offer some hearty canned food for cold beers, but it's one cold beer purr can, I am sure that's mewsic to your ears.
Pulling for the Brumbies to see the upset. Even picked them on SuperBru, but that was just for the fun of it.
Hope its a good game
Well
I see my predictions are coming true already, I see India just went 4-0 up
Joh.....It was a big gamble, but it paid off
Mooi man !!
LOL - Blob.... I think you got the question.
I'm Canadian. Can I play this game?
I will be cheering fo the Brumbies.
But I would put my money on the Chiefs to win. How about another 37-6 smashing.....What. A.Joke.
Chiefs should win but I am hoping for a Brumbies win.
My interest stopped being anything more than accedamic when the Stormers and the Cheetahs nose dived. The Chiefs are the more complete team playing the more exciting game, so they would be the more deserving side for the win. Everyone loves the underdog though, so its a win win for the neutrals. Chiefs by 17 at least.
Its been said already. Chiefs really should win but we have the Jake factor. Can he somehow conjour up a win.
Chiefs should have a tough game but never be in doubt of winning or in a situation where they could lose. If Brumbies were to win, they would need to do something really special and rarely ever seen.
They have had a tough 3 weeks. Its never easy playing two big saffa packs in a row and throw some travel to the republic in there and that makes for a bunch of soft, bruised boys. Cheetahs and Bulls have bothed pushed Brumbies to the edge and I doubt the Chiefs will lose to them at home after all the Brumbies travels.
This Super rugby tournament is proving to be a flop. We are seeing way too many "soft" grand finals. This conference system is bullshit. They should revert back to every team plays every team and top 4 contest the semi's and final. We are seeing teams have to travel too much to scrape through to the final and setting up very one sided finals due to this.
If this is to remain the case, the grand final and semi's should be seprated by 2 weeks to allow travel fatigue to ease and make for a better spectacle and more fair game. Last two years, the final has been very 1 sided and thats not how it should be. At the moment, I would rather see the Chiefs play any one of the NZL teams over the Brumbies as they are better rested and we would see a better game.
Who knows though. Maybe the Brumbies can lift once more or "save the best for last" but I doubt it.
Moz & a few others are sitting on the fence, lol
I can't argue with the logic (the team that plays the best rugby, etc.) but I have a simple table here and need to put an x for your name & the team you think will win. So far I have 10 picks.
The rest of you force those great ruby brains to make a choice, lol It's all in good fun!
Fucking one sided game.
Here are the picks so far for the final, those picking the Brumbies could make the rest of us look like arrogant idiots, don't miss this chance, lol

Only 11 hours and 4 minutes to tell us who you pick to win the final of the S15 for 2013!
Would've liked to see my name in that snazzy graph!
Chiefs, home advantage and travelling from West to East is going to be too much for Brumbies.
Chiefs by 20
Would be great for rugby to see the underdog Brumbies win but unfortunately i have to agree with Spoony. Chiefs should get a few 'flat' (forward) passes and knockons in the ruck unnotced by Craig Joubert............ so yes Chiefs by 20.
Who do you pick to win the Final, here are who thinks what so far. Only 2 hours & eight minutes to kick off.
If your name is not in the table post your pick now, lol
