Well I will say I would be surprised if Rebels win this, and that allowing for how buggered I think the Crusaders will be after last week. I am afraid to say I don't really rate the Rebels and haven't all year.

About 99.9% of Gaggers would agree with you. Despite the exhaustion, the Rebels won't even get close. Hardest thing for tipping this game is getting the margin correct.

Good to see Leota back. Don't think he'll be able to stop the massacre though. Our scrum will be monstered and our backs are looking particularly subpar too. Jolly good.

This is shaping up to be a massacre. Looking at the two lineups, the Cantabs only need to play to their potential for 20 minutes to be well ahead on the scoreboard. What happens if they go berko for the full 80.

Mounga has had a subdued season and will be looking to finally cut loose some jinky capers on some poor buggers.

On behalf of the Blues organisation, and the computations of home advantage in the playoffs, I stand behind the brave and true Melbourne Rebels as they attempt to destroy the heart of The Death Star armed with little more than 1 half-smashed light sabre found lying unloved and unkempt in a box in a garage in St Kilda.

Technical Conclusion: well, that was a thing wasn't it.

Not sure who the other team in blue are but their brave and sturdy lads seem to have something about them.....
