To be able to get on that plane if you need your fifth half back with how the ranks are at the moment.

Yeah, it does.

I think the top three are going to be sorted.

I just think anything below the three is going to be a little bit of movement.

I think if the Crusaders win, then I think the Brumbies and the Reds will pretty much stay where they are.

They might go fifth or sixth, swapping fifth or sixth.

Because at the moment, you've got the Hurricanes 55, Chiefs 46.

The Crusaders, the Blues 38, Crusaders 36, and then 33 for the Brumbies and 32 for the Reds.

So I think there's only going to be a little bit of movement depending if the Crusaders lose, which is a massive possibility depending on the squad that the Hurricanes do pick.

But yeah, there is a bit of movement, I guess, with the derbies that are happening in New Zealand.

But yeah, I think the real only movements, I think, Ross, will just be in the kind of 4, 5, 6, because I think the Blues have got enough points.

And yeah, the Hurricanes and the Chiefs have been able to get a lot more wins during the year.

I think even if they do get a bonus point I think they end up on 37 points and then yeah you have to think that both both the Reds playing the Drury at home and Moana at home that they'd be thinking bonus points so yeah there's a possibility that they do finish they do finish six but then you know the Hurricanes probably don't want that to happen if you're being brutally honest you probably wanted the the Crusaders to get two points somehow or been able to be

beating the, you know, getting, well, they can't because they're obviously playing them on the weekend.

So they're obviously going to try and beat them.

So they're probably just wanting the Chiefs, sorry, to beat the Blues.

Just gives them an opportunity as well.

So, but yeah.

It's funny, I think like TJ said, with how close the competition is, these derby games probably make it a little bit harder for the New Zealand teams to be able to finish where they want to.

But yeah, it gives itself a pretty jam-packed action weekend coming up for New Zealand fans.
