Super Rugby Round 13 was the toughest to pick with most punters struggling to come out of the round with their pride still intact.  The Reds showed above that they are by far the best Australian team in the competition, while the best halves of the round were two absolute bargains that not many people own in Elton Jantjies and Lachie Munro.  Jantjies was influential in one of the upsets with the Lions taking down the Brumbies.  Lachie Munro surprisingly came off the bench to be the surprise of the round.  The Reds contributed the most with three players in the team of round 13.  There are no Crusaders in this team of the round, while the Chiefs are now contributing players.  It is great to see two outside backs from the Bulls in the team for a change!
