In any case, Chiefs have not scored their 4 tries and the door is open to the Stormpoppies!!!
July 13th, 2012 at 11:19 SAST
Now we have to see if the Stormpoppies are able to score 4 tries.
July 13th, 2012 at 11:19 SAST

And the Stompies breathe a massive sigh of relief as now they don’t have to score 4 tries against the weakest team in the comp!
July 13th, 2012 at 11:22 SAST
So, Chiefs get 1 Log point for the loss within 7… now 2 Log points ahead of the Stormers
July 13th, 2012 at 11:23 SAST

turk @ 111
ja, now they’re just gonna go for the win and then tell us they did what they had to do. still a bit worried about our ability to score or create try scoring oppertunities though

cheers pieta

Canes have moved into 4th spot, temporarily, on 57 Log points…. now the Sharks & Bulls have to win. Reds game going to decide whether they need bonus points
July 13th, 2012 at 11:29 SAST
Looks like 58 Log points will get you in the Play-off’s…. except for the Reds…. they might need to build on points difference too
