Well done to Rick Page for sneaking the Yellow Cap (7 from 7 with 6 margin points!) in the Front Row Grunt SuperBru pool, but it’s still Brendan Wainwright who maintains a pretty tight grip on that top position on the log … My 6 from 7 moves me up 40 places to 281 out of 568 troops …

    1. Thought that might catch your eye. They took 50 from Gym, and got beaten by Drodsty … Even a blind squirrel gets an acorn every now and then 🙂

    2.Chiefs 27. 77
    3.Brumbies 21. 65 (they would be 6th in a real log!)

    1. Thanks Gerhard … Would this be using only their games against foreign teams?

      1. Hi Tank,
        No, sorry, I should’ve explained.
        3 for a win, 1 for a draw, 0 for a loss. No bonus points. If there’s a tie then points (goal) difference matters. Just like the Premiership. Therefore Stormers 10 wins = 30 points, etc.
