On this week’s show, Gareth can’t stop smiling and Ra can’t stop crying, as the in-form Hurricanes finally get their revenge for last year’s semi final. The Blues put the Force to sword at the Garden of Eden, with some superb kicking skills from Angus Ta’avao. The Drua keep their home advantage well in tact, as the Reds get caught out in holiday mode in Fiji. The Brumbies cement their place as the top Aussie team, with a pasting of the Tahs in Canberra, and the hapless Highlanders lose yet another battle to an ever improving Moana Pasifika.

Lest We Forget
The table-topping Chiefs pull off a scintillating performance without their major general, DMac. It turns out that Red is definitely better than Blue in a lacklustre showing from the reining champions. The Savea brothers pull on the same uniform and do battle together for the first time since they shipped out from Wellington, the sickeningly slick Crusaders outclass the hapless Highlanders in Dunedin, and the Brumbies have an unwanted visit to the proctologist as Billy and the Hurricanes muster up a season changing victory.

The Resurrection
This special Easter round saw this season’s first draw between the Force and the Canes, after an anticlimactic ‘super point’, the Chiefs came back from the deep shame of last week and asserted their typical second half dominance to spank the men from the deep south, the Drua invoked ‘Sega na leqa’ and once again took victory at their hallowed Churchill Park, and the Blues failed at the death to get past a fired up and very mouthy and disgustingly clinical Crusaders forward pack.

Full Moon Party
This week’s full moon sees Super Rugby get a little off kilter as the lads both suffer disappointing losses. An off night for D-Mac sees a major blowout in Sydney for the top-of-the-table Chiefs, a struggle for the Hurricanes in windy Wellington against a 13-man Crusaders outfit, several more bins destroyed in the second win on the trot for the reigning champions, and a Highlanders win that’s about as rare as hen’s teeth. Oh, and the Brumbies beat the Reds… Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

A Real Mixed Bag
This week the boys discuss yet another scintillating second half performance from Moana Pasifika as they time their run into playoff contention. The Chiefs have snatched back their claim to the top of the table, the Hurricanes gift the Blues their second win of the season, and the Crusaders pull a swifty and try to impersonate the Fijian rugby team.
