Super Rugby Round 11 Team of the Round has been named. Who would you pick in this team and who was the best player in Super Rugby Round 11?
Super 15 Rugby Round 11 Team of the Round has a real Hurricanes flavour with four players making the Super Rugby Round 11 Team of the Round, while the Stormers, Cheetahs and Reds also contributed more than one player to the team which is calculated using statistics from fantasy rugby website www.testrugby.com .
Hurricanes outside backs seem to be hot property in Super Rugby 2014, with Julian Savea being one of the best outside backs in 2014, while Cory Jane and Andre Taylor really thrived in Super Rugby Round 11 courtesy of a hat-trick to Jane and a strong Hurricanes performance under departing coach Mark Hammett. Cory Jane is one of several experienced All Blacks who are starting to hit their straps in Super Rugby 2014.
About half of fantasy managers would have been hurt by the late withdrawal of top hooker Bismarck du Plessis and with a shortage of trades due to multiple teams having byes in recent weeks and several injuries, then there will be plenty of people sweating on his fitness.
There will also be some players at their cheapest coming off the bye from the Lions, Crusaders and Rebels. This means players like Kieran Read, Scott Higganbotham, Sam Whitelock and Jason Woodward are options, while the Force have the bye in Super Rugby Round 12. Managers need to be careful to look ahead at the draw so they get at least four or five games out of each of their players.
There were also some bargain priced players who made the Super Rugby Round 11 Team of the Round including Bulls lock Paul Willemse and Stormers loose forward Nizaam Carr.
There was a real mix of players from different countries to make the Super Rugby Round 11 Team of the Round which is in some ways surprising given that only one South African team won in the round, yet they had the most players.
