Round three of the Super Rugby season is something of the past, and we have had yet another weekend with an upset or two. This is starting to become a trend, so do we start spotting the upset or stick to our guns.
Starting with our SuperBru results from our 150 strong pool, we have Xtal taking the yellow cap this week. Tackler moved from sixth spot into the lead, a healthy 0.75 points in front of closest rival RuckingFun. Here is the top 10:
1. Tackler – 20.25
2. RuckingFun – 19.50
3. Frikkie se broer – 19.00
AMG133 – 19.00
5. PostmanPat – 19.00
6. Jackal – 19.00
7. Culling Song – 19.00
8. greg – 19.00
9. Lyndy_in_Mtl – 19.00
10. Villie – 18.50
Over on our sister site, JustRugby.net, the race to be the Last Man Standing is hotting up, with only 14 users left. The big upset of the weekend was the people who selected the Bulls to beat the Highlanders, and we all know how that ended.
AddicteD, Greg’s Lions, Lion Kings and Sals Malachites all went for the Bulls and are no longer with us. Bump and Bean’s Sharks failed to make a pick and is also a casualty.
The Fantasy league race is also hotting up nicely with a clear leader after three weeks in AddicteD, who seems to have made good selections first up. Can he keep up the good form or will the rest of the group slowly catch up? Here is the top 10:
1.AddicteD – 1309
2.Amasharkies – 1183
3.Goggabies – 1163.5
4.Hertford’s Highlanders – 1148.25
5.mbaysharks – 1145
6.Retro junkies – 1124.5
7.Team Jardin – 1105.25
8.PumaPagels – 1101
9.Cape Town Steelers – 1099.5
10.MysticSharks – 1099.25
Good luck for the weekend ahead, it is going to be interesting to see how people fair with some tough games coming up.

@Hertford Highlander (Comment 13) :
I will have to wait until the Sharks are on a bye to catch up with Jarson.. but I should climb quite a bit this weekend…
@Richard Ferguson (Comment 18) : 😉
@Jarson (AddicteD) (Comment 2) : I don’t know WTF happened there!?!?!?!?

@Clayton(PJLD) (Comment 3) : Why on earth are you drunk so early in the morning?
@KSA Shark © (Comment 20) : 😈
@Hertford Highlander (Comment 19) : Howzit HH. Congrats on your team! They really made my day on Saturday and I think they have a good chance of leaving SA with 2 wins which would be fantastic for them!
@Hertford Highlander (Comment 22) : What about the old Veteran Tony Brown. He’s still looks like he’s got the goods and saw out the game against the bulls very well. Think he got those skills while he was at the Sharks? 😉
@Hertford Highlander (Comment 22) : Congrats with your team doing so well. They did more damage to me though, not only LMS but on FL aswell 😈
@Pokkel (Comment 25) :
Cheers Pokkel… have been buzzing since Sunday.
We never beat the Stormers however they are not playing the greatest Rugby at the minute are they….must be there for the taking ! 😎
Have the Saders once we return home ! 😯
@Richard Ferguson (Comment 18) : Looking at the average scores per round and his lead at the top, I’m thinking his tactic of going for players from a good team may just be working and he won’t be caught as long as the Sharks keep winning.
Anybody into the NRL? I’ve got a pool going. Name: AddicteD Code: daftgins. 😛 😎
@KSA Shark © (Comment 29) : And once again my team selections are the topic of the day 😈
@Jarson (AddicteD) (Comment 31) : The higher the tree the more wind it catches. 🙂
@KSA Shark © (Comment 32) :
I can handle the wind, I’m quite tough.
@Jarson (AddicteD) (Comment 33) : Howcome you got blown away by the Highlanders? 😈 😛 😉
Oh and while on the subject of LMS. Without mentioning any teams. It is good to see picks for both teams in an upcoming game this weekend. 😎
😛
eish… I’m flipping nowhere 🙁
@KSA Shark © (Comment 20) :
I was also thinking that my team was going to do okay..
Going backwards..
@KSA Shark © (Comment 34) : I cant win all the competitions, that wont be fair 😉
@KSA Shark © (Comment 35) :
It is going to be a very interesting weekend this..
Being my first time of playing FL, I’m curios, what’s the chance of catching up on the top 10 throughout the season, or is it sort of a lost cause? Its still fun playing though!
9 th ? I must have done something right for a change!
@Crock (Comment 40) : Nothing is impossible, somethings are improbable 😈
