Super Rugby Predictions: The Finals!

The three matches last weekend were all fairly easy to predict, and actually the two finals this weekend both have a clear favourite.

It's the last chance to move up your leaderboards to take a pool win and bragging rights into the Super Rugby Trans-Tasman tournament starting next week, but the chances of an underdog win are slim.

Here are my Super Rugby predictions for this weekend.

Crusaders v Chiefs It's disappointing to have Super Rugby so split like this, but then watching back to back finals seems like a great way to spend a Saturday. This first game should be a cracker, because whilst it's a final and things can often get tense, I expect both teams to play and make it an exhibition. It seems futile to try to analyse how the match will go, because we know the Crusaders will win any final in Christchurch, so let's just sit back and enjoy the spectacle. Crusaders by 7

Reds v Brumbies We're then onto Australia, where it's likely to be another home win. The Reds have been the form team all season, recording two victories over the Brumbies along the way, and they'll have the confidence to win this final. The lineups are interesting, with the Reds picking captain Luke Wright on the bench, along with potential match-winners like Seru Uru and Filipo Daugunu, who should come on to play the finisher role and close out the match.
