Although the inaugural Newshub Super Rugby Tipping Competition is in the books (Congrats Ross Karl), our punters were deadly eager to express their thoughts on how the final will play out.
The Crusaders have been on the money all season, aside from one or two slip-ups, but the Jaguares have been the form side of the last two months, knocking over everyone in their path.
But can they travel to Christchurch and cause a Super Rugby boilover?
===================================================
Ross Karl: Crusaders -12
Why the Crusaders you say? Because they are the Crusaders! They know how to win the big games and on paper, the Jaguares can't play at that intensity for 88 minutes, especially away from home.
Kristina Eddy: Crusaders -12
I've been a firm believer since the beginning that this is the year of the Crusaders three-peat.
While thoroughly deserving of their place in the final, the Jaguares will just fall short at the final hurdle, following a lengthy trip to NZ and the unfortunate fact they're up against the Crusaders.
John Day: Crusaders -12
I think there are plenty of similarities between the Jaguares and the Hurricanes, that's why I'm expecting another close encounter for the Saders.
The Jags have a helluva backline that could match any team in the competition, and if the Crusaders tackle at 69 per cent as they did against the Canes, the Argentines will make them pay.
But it's up front where the two-time defending champions have a massive advantage.
The Jags have an average scrum and the Crusaders will target and dominate the set-piece allowing Richie Mo'unga to work his magic, unleashing speedsters like Reece, Bridge and Ennor to do their thing.
Ollie Ritchie: Crusaders 13+
They've been tested this year, but the Crusaders have showed why the deserve the three peat.
Clinical in crunch games, big game players like Sam Whitelock who know exactly the limitations a referee will allow at the breakdown, and a sharp backline who will pounce on any mistake the opposition makes.
Andrew Gourdie: Crusaders -12
A fascinating fixture this. The emotionally charged Jaguares, making history by getting to the final, taking on the clinical Crusaders.
Normally I would think this is a comfortable 13+ for the home side, but they've shown signs that they're struggling to hit top gear as the season reaches its climax.
Sam Whitelock's veteran play got them out of jail last week, and I'm sure Hurricanes fans will look forward to seeing him pull those moves in a black jersey later this year.
No Crotty, no Barrett, and this could be a tough assignment for the home side.
