SupeRugby Round 4 Recap:

This round of PreJudgement's went a little better than my first attempt. The Crusaders, Stormers and Hurricanes showing me up and the Blues , Force draw the games I got wrong, which left only 2 other games for me to get right. A little more practice is clearly needed.
A brief look at this weekends SupeRugby:

• The Crusaders destroyed the Brumbies after an early score by Matt Giteau which was followed by a yellow card. The Crusaders ran in 6 tries in total and proved that they can now finish teams off. Winger Sean Maitland scored four of those six tries. I believe warning has been sent by the Canterbury team.
• Newbies to SupeRugby the Melbourne Rebels nearly earned their second win of the season against the favored Sharks team from Durban. Both teams secured a four try bonus point but it was one more successful conversion by Patrick Lambie that secured the away teams second away win of the season.
• Yet another try-less game at Newlands ends in a Stormers win. Peter Grant did the business for the home team with six penalties to the two from Robbie Robinson.
• The Hurricanes secured their first win of the season with a narrow 3 point win over the Chiefs. A major surge by the Hurricanes in the second half gave them the lead which they held onto for the win.
• An 81st minute penalty by Blues replacement flyhalf, Stephan Brett, allowed both sides to share the points after the Force lead from the 39th minute. With a try a piece the rest of the game was dominated off the kicking tee.
• The Loins earned their first win of the season against another SA team, the Cheetahs. Both teams were without a win before kick off and I am sure both saw this as an opportunity to really get the season going. The Lions ran out deserved 25-20 winners.

The Sharks and Waratahs are in the top two spots on the table with the Rebels and Cheetahs propping up the bottom.
