I've having a very hard time picking a winner but am leaning towards the Lions. The Crusaders are the better team and played a far tougher schedule this year but are travelling half way across the world to play at altitude. When the Hurricanes did the same last week they got off to a fast start but then collapsed getting out scored 34-5 in the 2nd half.
I am pulling for the Lions.

Had a mate that was involved in the youth coaching set up. After years of being the whipping boys of SA rugby, they deserve this win.

Also, I think it will be better for Super Rugby to have someone other than a NZ team, especially Crusaders win.
