Wanna get a thread started. Last year's threads were great.

We're going to have a tipping comp Mr J. I'm sure you'll want to be in it???

I'm thinking the Saffie teams are all improving and therefore one of their super12 teams might represent value. But which one? Obviously not the Cats. I'd rate Stormers, Sharks, Bulls pretty close but in that order - although for no better reason than last years results.

Thoughts, opinions?

I think the S.African teams will continue to improve, but I just can't see them actually winning it. I reckon it will probably be between the big three again. Could be good value in picking a S.A team to make the finals though.

i did some pre-season ratings (not yet final):

Brumbies - 110
Crusaders - 77
Blues - 47
Sharks - 39
Waratahs - 37
Stormers - 34
Chiefs - 29
Bulls - 29
Reds - 10
Highlanders - 4
Hurricanes - 1.6
Cats - -1.6

Don't ask me what they mean, just putting together a new theory of mine, but will have even better and more detailed ratings soon!

i dont think Mr J likes giving away his tips

too good for us
