Although the Final 8 are pretty much signed, sealed and delivered, I anticipate that there might be a few upsets this week.
Possibly the only easy game will be Souths against the Knights, who, the way they are playing, could have been a worry for any side in the Top 8.
But that’s not my pick this week. I’m going for an out of form Warriors to beat an out of form Tigers. Both sides have had ample opportunities for a finals spot but their effort leaves a lot to be desired.
The Warriors home crowd, if they turn up, will help get New Zealand across the line in the land of the long white cloud.
