Super Rugby Pacific 2024: Round 2 Predictions

Hutch | Commercial Director

Wed 28 Feb 2024

My Grand Slam Points in Round 1 were rather pleasing, picking all 6 games correctly along with around 10,000 other people. It has left me in Top 3% on the Global Leaderboard, and now the challenge is to stay there and avoid the red arrows!

Here are my Super Rugby predictions for Round 2.

Highlanders v Blues: Blues by 9

Rebels v Force: Force by 2

Moana Pasifika v Fijian Drua: Fijian Drua by 8

Crusaders v Waratahs: Crusaders by 18

Chiefs v Brumbies: Chiefs by 11

Hurricanes v Reds: Hurricanes by 16

The Rebels v Force game is likely to divide people the most, and I'm going against the only team with home advantage this weekend.

Otherwise, it's all the New Zealand teams against Australian opposition, plus wins for the Blues and the Drua.

How do these compare to your own picks?

Highlanders, Rebels and Moana for me with small margins. Hurricanes, I pick a higher margin.

It’s strange - the Drua are strong upfront but I think that they are especially going to miss Caleb Muntz at flyhalf this year; I have Moana by a small margin. 100% agreement on the rest and the margins look spot on too!
