2nd draw of the season for men in hoops

WP are the only unbeaten team..just.

 

2 draws, 2 victories by a single point.

 

I think it was the wrong choice going for poles this weekend. They had the lions on the ropes in the final ten minutes.

score the try - 5 point haul from the match(win plus 4th try bonus).

get the penalty kick - 2 point haul(draw)

don't score the try/penalty - 1 point haul(losing bonus point).

 

so basically it was an easy penalty for 1 log point or a try for 4 log points.

 

edit: just saw the highlights of the game..nice call on the penalty try+yellow card!

I'm not saying we can't present a sixth franchise. It's the guys down under who don't want it because of travel, time of view for SA games, and the fact that not every team gets to play each other. The competition structure is already crowded. I think you made similar comments in an earlier post?

Looks like we got our way afterall. Six SA sides from 2016.

 

how is it going to look?

Talking about selective, lets look at the stats and delve a bit in before making sweeping statements.

 

Stormers lost 7 out of 16 games. Bulls lost 5 out of 17.

 

Stormers were one of the teams to beat the eventual champions the Chiefs.

The Bulls were one of the lucky teams who didn't have to play them. (Stormers got to miss out on playing the teams who ended up 13th and 14th on the log).

 

Doesn't look so cut and dried now.

Don't forget that the stormers(and sharks) played most of the season with 10/15 players out injured. Bulls got to play next year with a similar shortage of players(except injured players are more likely to come back than ones with french contracts).
