The Force beat a weak Stormers team in Cape Town, while NSW lost to the Sharks in Durban, Queenland went down to the Crusaders in Christchurch and - as last week’s tickets winner, Mark Decker from BOS, predicted - the Brumbies lost to the Blues in Canberra.
In round 3 of the Investec Super 14, the NSW Waratahs will face the Cheetahs in Bloemfontein while the Force will travel to the high veldt to face the Bulls in Pretoria and will have to improve their woeful lineout if they are to have any chance of beating the Bulls.
The only match being played in Australia will be the Queensland Reds-ACT Brumbies game in Brisbane. This should be an interesting contest – the Reds are youthful and energetic with a powerful forward pack, while the Brumbies are experienced and wily and have a talented backline.
The Super 14’s Australian sponsor, specialist banking group Investec, is offering you the chance to win tickets to this game.
