Super 14 weekend


In brief: Blues lost at home to the Force. The Hurricanes destroyed the Brumbies. The Chiefs were defeated by the Stormers at home and the Crusaders looked wonderful in their 55-7 defeat of the Cheetahs.

Blues: pretty bad. They look impressive, John Afoa is a monster, John Afoa could be playing at 6, Keven Mealamu and Tony Woodcock also kick asses... but how much they do need Nick Evans. Leading 17-7 at halftime, the loss of Evans was key to see the Blues conceeding 20 unanswered points to the Force in the second half.

Chiefs: They should turn on the light as soon as possible. They are better than they are showing.

Hurricanes: It's four in a row now, but the hardest part of it comes now. They rest the next week just to meet the Crusaders on week 7. It's going to test their recently acquired regularity.

Crusaders: They are the best.
