The final game of the round gave the Reds an (undeserved IMHO) narrow victory over the Force. The Reds need to pull up their socks and the Force have shown that they will be a force this year (sorry) :roll:

The round finished thus:

Thanks Diver Pete for putting the final scores up for the round, I will still crying over the lost chance by the Force. Bit of a recovery from last years drubbing but still a loss. Non too happy here that iinet seemed to have taken Super Rugby off their Freezone. Anywhere else we can watch these games other than Fox??

We have heard that the Hurricanes (Wellington) v Crusaders (Christchurch) game scheduled for Wellington this weekend will not be played.

It is not being postponed and the teams will share the points - presumably 2 points each.

KevinHedley · **Posted:** Thu Feb 24, 2011 11:40:08 am

Here is the official statement from the Super 15 website:

SANZAR CEO Greg Peters has announced that the Crusaders will withdraw from their Super Rugby match against the Hurricanes in Wellington on Saturday, following the devastating earthquake that struck Christchurch yesterday.

SANZAR rugby nations New Zealand, South Africa and Australia stand behind the Crusaders and their decision to withdraw from the round two match against the Hurricanes in Wellington on Saturday 26 February.

Crusaders Chief Executive Hamish Riach said the decision not to travel to Wellington this weekend, was reached following discussions between the Crusaders coaches, senior players and Crusaders' Board.

"After all that has happened here in Christchurch and with so many lives affected by this event, we have decided it would not be appropriate to play a game of rugby against the Hurricanes on Saturday.

Our thoughts are with our families, friends and wider Crusaders' community and rugby is not a priority at the moment.

"All of the Crusaders players, team management, staff and board members have been directly affected by this terrible tragedy and it's our desire to stay here and support our families and community at this time," Riach said.

Peters said that the decision had the full backing of all three SANZAR countries.

"This decision had to be steered by the Crusaders Board, management and team. Our thoughts are very much with all of those affected by the earthquake," Peters said.

NZRU Chief Executive Steve Tew said that New Zealand rugby stood firmly behind the Crusaders and the Canterbury rugby region.

"New Zealand is dealing with an enormous human tragedy and our sympathies and thoughts are very much with the people of Christchurch at this time.

We will continue to work to see how we can best support our friends and colleagues in the Crusaders and the Canterbury community over the coming weeks and months," Tew said.

Hurricanes Chairman Paul Collins said: "We fully support the Crusaders' decision not to play this fixture and we wish to extend our sympathies to everyone who has been affected by this tragedy.

Our focus now will be on finding ways in which the Hurricanes franchise can support the people of Christchurch through this terrible time.

"Obviously there are a number of logistical issues we have to work through with our commercial partners, members and supporters who were planning to come to the game on Saturday and we will be working hard to resolve these as soon as possible."

Peters said that SANZAR executive committee involving all three countries had agreed to declare the Hurricanes v Crusaders match a draw and the competition points would be shared evenly between the two franchises (two points each), as consistent with similar situations in other international tournaments.

Both franchises had been consulted and were in agreement with this decision.

To save everyone changing their tips for the match to a draw, all participants will be awarded the point for the Wellington v Crusaders match in round 2. Should also be noted that future Crusaders games are likely to be moved elsewhere as the surface of AMI stadium will take at least 3 months to repair. Hopefully they will get it up for the World Cup later in the year

prof2000, your tips were late so I cant accept your Friday night effort. You were given the two lowest placed sides (Chiefs and Rebels), which was the complete opposite to what you tipped and you still split them anyway.

Lakatoi 4 · **Posted:** Sat Mar 05, 2011 09:34:12 am

The Waratahs played well but missed Barnes badly and the ref missed a few knock on's at crucial stages which didn't help.

Still I'm not taking anything away from the Crusaders win, they played extremely well. If they continue like that they will win the competition hands down.

Damn!

0 for 2 so far this weekend! :evil:

A cracking game between the Lions and the Blues at Coca-Coala park with 9 tries being scored!

The Blues ran out winners 41 to 32.
