ITM Cup Semi Finalists

mr selfdestruct · 3rd September 2010, 08:49

My prediction is:

Canterbury
Taranaki
Waikato
Southland

4 points 1st, 3 points 2nd, 2 points 3rd, 1 point 4th - GO!

Rince · 3rd September 2010, 09:22

In no order:
Cunterbary
Southland
Wellington
'Naki.

fixed_truth · 3rd September 2010, 10:25

'In order'

1. Southland
2. Wellington
3. Cantebury
4. Waikato

PhX · 3rd September 2010, 12:44

watu
northland
otago
tasman

mr selfdestruct · 3rd September 2010, 15:45

Hey Phx, not statistically possible for Otago

PhX · 9th September 2010, 12:34

mr selfdestruct · 20th September 2010, 09:34

Surely Wellington are no chance, bye bye Gear and Savea.

fixed_truth · 20th September 2010, 13:18

Getting closer to deciding top 7 also. Looks like Hawke's Bay is not making the cut & maybe BOP too.

xor · 20th September 2010, 15:11

lol, Auckland is in there

mr selfdestruct · 20th September 2010, 15:33

Log jam to get in the Top 8, heap of teams with 4 wins from 8 games. Come on the Bay, squeeze in there lads!

mr selfdestruct · 18th October 2010, 09:37

So much for that idea.... bloody typical though isn't it? All Blacks coming back to rescue the big 4

So most likely it's going to be

Canterbury
Auckland
Wellington
Waikato

Gonna be a massive log jam for 4th because potentially Bay, Waikato and the Naki could end up on 41 points. Waikato has a far superior points differential though so if that happened they would get through, they just need a single bonus point against Canterbury.

I'd like to see Southland finish their season by knocking over Wellington though because then that would most likely put Waikato in 3rd and the Bay in 4th

Win. Closest.

Can't believe BOP only needed a single Bonus Point to make the semi finals, GRRRRRRRR!!

GG Wellington. Fist to chest proud of y'all tonight.

You played well in an away game against a Canterbury team far better than you on paper. There's a lot of depth there that will take us through to 2015 at least.

Slade, you were average. I retract my previous anus licking of your playing ability. That said, you can do what a first five needs to do first and foremost, kick the ball well. By contrast Wgtn had So'aanga (spelling soz) who can run well, kick goals well, but can't punt the ball to fucking save himself.

Vito had a good game, but so he fucking should have given the ABs dumping. Having a lacklustre game after that signal would have ended his career.

Why oh why did we ever let go of Fruen?

GG Canterbury. As cheesy as it sounds 'rugby was the winner at the end of the day'. 90 points in a semi final is just a showcase of how southern hemisphere rugby should be played.

Bit miffed the ref didn't call the try that went down right in front of him and at one point the only thing stopping me calling him a cunt was my mother was in the room (where he missed a arm in a ruck but got a call from the sideline cause his back was turned).

given it's par for welly to make it to the semis only to get beaten by chch this was one of the better losses to watch.

Southland's inability to score bonus points fuckd them. Oh and finishing with four losses in a row including a home-ground loss to a shitty second string Wellington.
