The Crusaders can secure the Super Rugby Aotearoa but we can still enjoy the games.

I’m testing my Super Rugby picks against the TAB in my series DrivingMaul v The Bookie. Check out how I did in Round 8.
Hurricanes v Chiefs – Hurricanes by 5
The Chiefs are having a shocking season so you can’t pick anyone but the Canes in this one. The Canes haven’t lost a game since Jordie has returned from injury. However the Canes haven’t been winning by many which is why I think it’ll finish within a score.
Crusaders v Highlanders – Crusaders by 12
The Crusaders have only lost one game this season and they have the added incentive that a win here will mean they have won the tournament. The Landers on the other hand have only beaten the Chiefs since lockdown.

Whilst most games have been within a score however 4 out of the Saders 5 wins have been in double figures.
Bye – Blues
The Blues will be watching the Sunday game and hoping that the Highlanders can do them a favour. They’ll know
Record So Far
8 from 14 or 57% so far, I’m having a poor Super Rugby Aotearoa.
