Super 14 week one: review

Highlanders - Brumbies was a good match to see, but a bad game to play. 2 points are not enough for the Highlanders.

Lions - Cheetahs did not show much, really.

Crusaders - Chiefs was another good match to see. The Chiefs are much improved and they can be real contenders this year. The Crusaders were Crusaders-standard.

Western Force - Blues game could deceive you. The Blues have got everything to prove yet, the Force is not a force.

Hurricanes - Waratahs was the same story of last year. Either team lacks just exactly what the other team possesses: either glamour or defense.

Bulls - Reds was a pity. The Reds have got quality.

Stormers - Sharks showed us that the West Province needs something more than just Schalk Burger.

Welcome, ladies and gentlemen to the Super14. Shall we call it the last Super14?
