After looking at the fixtures for week 7, there are a few key games that could start to shape the contenders from the pretenders for a finals berth.
:Force: v Stormers
A win here will continue our surge up the table. Enough said.
Hurricanes v Crusaders
The Crusaders are in ominous form and look to take all before them this year. A Crusaders win will aid the , as it will give us some breathing space from the Hurricanes
Sharks v Reds
It might not seem to be a key game, but if the Sharks drop this game, the will continue to climb the table, provided we beat the stormers.
Blues v Bulls
If the Blues drop this game and the win, we will go ahead of the blues.
If the Crusaders, Reds, Bulls and win, we will be 2nd after this week.
If the Crusaders, Sharks, Blues,,Cheetahs and highlanders win, we will remain in 4th spot, but it will increse the gap to the chasing teams - Hurricanes 5pts behind, Brumbies 8pts behind, Waratahs 10pts behind, Chiefs 10pts behind, Stormers 10pts behind.
All of these assumptions have assumed wins only with no BP awarded.
