I've been back in Christchurch and they do have to travel the Waratahs, but I'll put the Crusaders, but a little bit dependent on what that squad's going to be.

I think the Waratahs, if it is a little bit of an experienced team that we saw against the force, then they'll be licking their lips in Christchurch for that first game.

Yeah, I think the Hurricanes.

But in saying that, the Bromies have had some great success against New Zealand teams this year.

So if they turn up like they have played against New Zealand teams, then they're definitely a shot.

But I think one thing that is a big thing, it'll be dry.

And the Hurricanes, when it's dry, they are a tough team to be able to defend against because of the way that they are attacking.

So, yeah, I just think the Hurricanes, again, weren't that far off.

A couple of moments that Jipper said, they probably beat the Chiefs.

So I think they'll continue their attack and the defensive pressure that they do bring consistently throughout the year.

I think it'll just be a little bit too much under the roof against the Brumbies.

Blues v Reds, what do you think, Brennan?

The Blues.

Look, I think, you know, the Reds have a style that at any time can beat anybody in the competition.

The physicality side of it is always a big thing with them, and the way they have shown it in glimpses with their attack, they're able to be able to cause an upset.

But, look, I just think where the Blues are at, and I think the evolution of their game, you know, when it gets tough, they've got the ability to be able to go to their line-out more, their set-piece,

they're able to go back to that kind of dna that won them that championship a few years ago being able to pick and go through the middle you know going through the front door with teams and then also their back attack has shown evolution around being able to get with when they need to so i just think they've got um a lot of ways that they can beat the reds um and yeah i think they'll be a little bit disappointed with the way they they finish that game on the weekend or give them a great um i guess training week so that they probably should have got a better result so i'll be picking the blues over the reds

Nothing more needs to be said.

Chiefs versus the Druar, Bruno.

You're going to be picking the Chiefs.
