Who would you pick in your team of the round?
The Super Rugby Round 12 Form XV Team of the Week is here with statistics from fantasy rugby website www.testrugby.com based on their statistical definitions. Round 12 will be noted as a round with some amazing individual performances with players scoring higher than usual points. Another interesting fact is that there are plenty of bargain priced players, so you don't have to break the bank to get value for money purchases.
Colin Slade made the Team of the Round ahead of Beauden Barrett and some other well performed first five eighths including Christian Lealiifano.
Slade was nearly the best performed player of the round according to www.testrugby.com statistics with one try, one assist, two linebreaks, five go-forwards, eight tackles, one lineout, eight catches and five goals. It made a big difference having Slade kicking goals. Could he start for the All Blacks ahead of Barrett?
Barrett also rated highly according to www.testrugby.com statistical definitions with one try, four linebreaks, five go-forwards, one turnover, seven tackles, one catch and four goals, although Barrett looks to have sustained an injury, so don't rush out to buy him yet!
The best player in Super Rugby Round 12 was young Blues loose forward Akira Ioane.
Players like Jaco Kriel, Akira Ioane, George Moala, Waisake Naholo and Dane Haylett-Petty are bargains.
