Islanders v Stompers 
The Islanders have a big pack. Stompers don’t.
Stompers have no brains or confidence
Islanders by 12

Farce v Lions 
This one was harder to pick. My heart says Lions but my head says they’ll fnd it hard to back up their win last weeek, espcially with the personnel they have lost. Farce by 9

Blues v Reds 
The Blues are running back into form, whilst the Reds have lost 19 in a row on the road. This will be 20. Blues by 23

Horrorcanes v Brumbies 
The Horrorcanes look to be peaking at the right time, whilst the Brumbies are riding on the emotion of Shawn MacKay’s death. I’m picking the Horrorcanes by 13

Cheaters v Crusaders 
The Cheaters can’t beat NZ or Australian opposition. Simple as that. Crusaders by 16

Bulls v Chiefs 
My beloved Bulls are back at Loftus, and will give me something to cheer about. They should match and dominate the Cheifs upfront and then look to dominate the Chiefs back who will be on the back foot for once. Could be a cracker of a game, Go Bulls Go! Bulls by 12.
