'Not good enough': Super Rugby marred by one-sided playoffs | Ryan Bridge TODAY
NZ Herald ·
FFS, playoffs used to mean something. Now it's just a popularity contest for the Blues.
Maybe if the other teams actually showed up during the season it wouldn't be so one-sided? Just saying...
harder. Blues had an easy run and still nearly blew it.
Ryan Bridge on his high horse again. Rugby's been a mess for years, mate.
Would help if we stopped losing all our talent overseas. But nah, let's just blame the format.
I dunno, I still enjoy watching the games. Could be worse, could be like European rugby where the same team wins every year.

stuffed. If you don't understand the impact of player drain you're not watching properly.
Super Rugby is dead. Too many pointless games, no one cares until the finals. Wake me up in August for the All Blacks.
even the All Blacks are struggling. The whole system is cooked.
It's not the playoffs, it's the coaching. Same old boring game plans. Bring back the old Super 12 format IMO.
100%. Bring back the old format with proper crowds, none of this franchise mess.
it's not the playoffs. It's the lack of competition. Too many easy teams now.
it's a mix of both. But greedy administrators don't help.
Yeah nah this is just the same old story. Chiefs choke, Crusaders dominate. Sad reality.
