The 2023 Super Rugby Pacific finals series is upon us. We have found our top 4 teams out of 12, after
14 regular season games.

Malo NRL fans round 21 is upon us and with Origin over, the Telstra Premiership is back on centre stage. 7 rounds to go and I must admit, the make up of the top 4 is still undecided as teams still have enough time to bring it home or at the same time ki’o their ofuvae (shit their pants) and come up
