Back when there was Fox Sports World, I did watch a lot of Super Rugby (what was then Super 12). Especially Highlanders. I'm no expert, but I'd give it a whack.

Fucking Lions. The first week I've ever picked against them because I was tired of giving away a point, and they squeak out a win against the undefeated Eagles.

These last two weeks have been brutal. I think I'm gonna jump on Tazzy's plan of picking best uniforms. I can't do any worse!

Lol maybe I'm just weird, but I went down that list, looked at w-l records, who the home team was and made my picks.
