高地人在季后赛任务中面对歌利亚任务

在超级橄榄球第 12 轮中，十字军的季后赛希望面临着对仅落后他们 6 分的高地人队的重大挑战。积分榜榜首的蓝军将与飓风队发生冲突，而红军和叛军之间的澳洲德比则对季后赛产生影响。酋长队希望巩固他们对莫阿纳·帕西菲卡队的地位，而布鲁比队则希望扩大他们对瓦拉塔队的领先优势。原力队迎战德鲁阿队，后者寻求加强他们的季后赛席位。

The Crusaders’ quest for a play-off berth is in dire straits but they do come up against a team who occupies the final play-off berth and is only six points off them this weekend in the form of the Highlanders.

十字军对附加赛席位的追求陷入了困境，但他们确实遇到了一支占据附加赛最后席位的球队，本周末他们只落后他们六分，那就是高地人队。

Other crucial Round 12 Super Rugby fixtures see the Blues and Hurricanes square off in a top-of-the-table clash, while the Reds and Rebels square off in a mid-table Aussie derby.

超级橄榄球第 12 轮的其他重要比赛包括蓝军和飓风队在积分榜榜首的比赛中对决，而红军和叛军则在中游的澳大利亚德比中对决。

Friday 10 May

Moana Pasifika 14/1 | Draw 40/1 | Chiefs 1/100 (09:05)

Handicap
Moana Pasifika (+27.5) 9/10 | Chiefs (-27.5) 9/10

First up, we’ve got a fixture that could have a massive bearing on both the home play-off berths as well as who grabs the last few play-off places with the fourth-placed Chiefs taking on ninth-placed Moana Pasifika in Auckland.

5 月 10 日星期五Moana Pasifika 14/1 |抽奖 40/1 |酋长队 1/100 (09:05)让分盘 Moana Pasifika (+27.5) 9/10 |酋长队 (-27.5) 9/10首先，我们有一场比赛，可能会对主场附加赛席位以及谁能在第四名酋长队的比赛中获得最后几个附加赛席位产生重大影响奥克兰的 Moana Pasifika 排名第九。

The pseudo-hosts – they only had one true home game this year at that came last weekend when they played the Highlanders in Tonga – for Saturday are three points adrift of the final play-off berth and have a tough fixture list to contend with following this tie as they play the Hurricanes, Waratahs and Crusaders in the final three rounds of the regular season.

伪东道主——他们今年只有一场真正的主场比赛，那是上周末在汤加对阵高地人队——周六距离最后的附加赛席位还差三分，接下来的赛程很艰难。这场比赛他们将在常规赛最后三轮比赛中对阵飓风队、瓦拉塔队和十字军队。

Moana Pasifika gave a decent account of themselves against Kiwi opposition this past weekend going down 17-28 to the Highlanders in atrocious conditions. While they did stretch the Highlanders in open play, their woes at lineout time routinely scuppered their momentum.

Moana Pasifika 在上周末对阵新西兰队的比赛中表现出色，在恶劣的条件下以 17-28 输给了高地人队。虽然他们在空战中确实给高地人队带来了压力，但他们在争边球时的困境却经常削弱他们的势头。

While Moana Pasifika lost their seventh game of the season this past weekend, the Chiefs registered their seventh win as they tore apart the Force 56-7 in one of the most one-sided fixtures we have seen this term.

虽然莫阿纳·帕西菲卡队上周末输掉了本赛季的第七场比赛，但酋长队以 56-7 击败原力队，取得了第七场胜利，这是我们本赛季见过的最一边倒的比赛之一。

In terms of team news for Saturday’s encounter, the Chiefs have opted to rest All Black start Damien McKenzie with young prospect Josh Jacomb filling McKenzie’s boots at pivot, while Moana Pasifika have freshened things up by handing debuts to centre Lalomilo Lalomilo and reserve scrumhalf Siaosi Nginingini.

周六比赛的球队新闻方面，酋长队选择让全黑队先发达米安·麦肯齐休息，年轻的新秀乔什·雅各科姆将接替麦肯齐的中枢位置，而莫阿纳·帕西菲卡则让中锋拉洛米洛·拉洛米洛和替补后卫西奥西·恩吉宁尼首次亮相，让比赛焕然一新。 。

Verdict: Chiefs (-27.5) 9/10

结论：酋长队 (-27.5) 9/10

While Moana Pasifika will be relieved not to see Damien McKenzie on the team sheet after the way he tore their defence up in Round 4, I still reckon they will struggle against this stacked Cheifs outfit.

虽然莫阿纳·帕西菲卡（Moana Pasifika）会因为达米安·麦肯齐（Damien McKenzie）在第四轮撕碎防守后没有出现在球队名单上而感到欣慰，但我仍然认为他们将在与这支酋长队的比赛中挣扎。

Reds 1/8 | Draw 33/1 | Rebels 5/1 (11:35)

Handicap
Reds (-14.5) 9/10 | Rebels (+14.5) 9/10

We cross the Tasman for an Aussie derby with the fifth-placed Reds taking on the sixth-placed Rebels. A win for either side would all but assure them a quarter-final berth, so there is a hell of a lot riding on this one.

红军 1/8 |抽奖 33/1 |叛军 5/1 (11:35)让分红军 (-14.5) 9/10 |叛军 (+14.5) 9/10 我们穿过塔斯曼河，进行一场澳大利亚德比，排名第五的红军对阵排名第六的叛军。任何一方的胜利都几乎可以确保他们进入四分之一决赛，所以这场比赛有很多赌注。

The Reds made it two solid showings against two Kiwi sides as they followed up their ‘Golden Point’ defeat at the hands of the Blues with a 33-28 win over the Crusaders. While this isn’t exactly a vintage ‘Saders outfit, the Reds were still good value for the win with their attacking looking extremely dangerous on turnover ball. And while their defence was leaky at times, they did front up in the final six minutes when the Crusaders were throwing everything at them.

红军在对阵两支新西兰球队的比赛中取得了两场稳定的表现，他们在“金点”输给蓝军之后以 33-28 战胜了十字军。虽然这不完全是萨德的经典造型，但红军对于这场胜利来说仍然很有价值，他们的进攻在失误球上看起来极其危险。虽然他们的防守有时会出现漏洞，但在最后六分钟，当十字军向他们投入一切时，他们确实挺身而出。

While the Reds managed to get a win against Kiwi opposition in Round 11, the Rebels had no such luck as they went down 11-38 to the Blues in Melbourne. It was their second successive big loss to New Zealand opposition as they had gone down 39-0 to the Crusaders the week prior.

虽然红军在第 11 轮中成功击败了新西兰对手，但叛军却没有这样的运气，他们在墨尔本以 11-38 输给了蓝军。这是他们连续第二次惨败给新西兰对手，上周他们以 39-0 输给了十字军。

The visitors for Friday’s clash have named the same starting forward pack for the fixture but tweaked the backline somewhat with Nick Jooste and Filipo Daugunu getting starts in the centres. On the Reds side of things, they’ve got some real firepower on the bench with James O’Connor set to make his long-awaited return along with Wallaby nine Tate McDermott.

周五比赛的客队在比赛中指定了相同的首发前锋，但对后防线进行了一些调整，尼克·乔斯特和菲利波·道古努在中锋首发。在红军方面，他们在替补席上拥有一些真正的火力，詹姆斯·奥康纳将与小袋鼠九号泰特·麦克德莫特一起回归期待已久的比赛。

Verdict: Reds (-14.5) 9/10

结论：红军 (-14.5) 9/10

I reckon that bench is going to cause the Rebels all sorts of problems in the final quarter of this fixture and I can see the hosts running away with the game late in the second stanza.

我认为替补席将在本场比赛的最后一节给叛军带来各种各样的问题，我可以看到主队在第二节后期失去比赛。

Saturday 11 May

Blues 6/10 | Draw 20/1 | Hurricanes 14/10 (06:35)

Handicap
Blues (-3.5) 9/10 | Hurricanes (+3.5) 9/10

It’s the clash of the weekend next up with the second-placed Blues playing host to the log-leading Hurricanes in what should be an absolutely belting derby clash. Only a single log point separates these two sides, who have only lost a game apiece this term.

5 月 11 日星期六布鲁斯 6/10 |抽奖 20/1 |飓风 14/10 (06:35)让分蓝调 (-3.5) 9/10 |飓风队 (+3.5) 9/10 接下来是周末的比赛，排名第二的蓝军将主场迎战排名第一的飓风队，这应该是一场绝对精彩的德比比赛。这两支球队之间只有一个对数分，本赛季他们只输了一场比赛。

The hosts head into this one off the back of yet another polished display as they claimed the full five-point haul in Melbourne, beating the Rebels 11-38. All Blacks winger Mark Telea was once again lethal with ball-in-hand as he bagged a brace while the rest of the Blues tries came from close-range carries.

主队在另一场精彩的比赛中以 11-38 击败叛军，在墨尔本全取五分。全黑队边锋马克·特利亚再次以持球致命，他梅开二度，而蓝军的其余尝试则来自近距离传球。

Speaking of All Blacks, veteran Kiwi scrum-half TJ Perrana rounded out the scoring in a big win for the ‘Canes with the log-leaders responding brilliantly to their Round 10 eight-point defeat to the Brumbies with a 41-12 bonus point win over the Waratahs. While Perranara had the final say, it was the Hurricanes’ young guns who stole the show with starting nine Richard Judd and fullback Ruben Love both having blinders.

说到全黑队，新西兰老将 TJ Perrana 为“Canes”队赢得了一场大胜，他们以 41-12 的加分胜利，以 41-12 的加分胜利，以出色的方式回应了第 10 轮 8 分输给 Brumbies 队的情况。越过瓦拉塔。虽然佩拉纳拉拥有最终决定权，但飓风队的年轻球员抢尽了风头，先发九号理查德·贾德和后卫鲁本·洛夫都戴着眼罩。

Moving onto team news now, and the visitors have channelled their inner Springbok, opting for a 6-2 split on the bench. There’s also a slew of changes to the side with Xavier Numia, Caleb Delany, Brad Shields, TJ Perenara, Kini Naholo, Jordie Barrett all returning to the run on XV. On the Blues side of things, All Blacks centre Rieko Ioane is out due to concussion which means AJ Lam gets a start at 13, while Zarn Sullivan returns from injury and moves straight into the fullback berth.

现在转到球队新闻，客队已经释放了他们内心的跳羚，选择在替补席上打出 6-2 的比分。球队阵容也发生了一系列变化，Xavier Numia、Caleb Delany、Brad Shields、TJ Perenara、Kini Naholo、Jordie Barrett 都在 XV 中回归。在蓝军方面，全黑队中锋 Rieko Ioane 因脑震荡缺席，这意味着 AJ Lam 将在第 13 场首发，而扎恩·沙利文 (Zarn Sullivan) 则从伤病中恢复并直接进入后卫位置。

Verdict: Hurricanes (+3.5) 9/10

结论：飓风 (+3.5) 9/10

I think the Hurricanes’ 6-2 option is smart and will mitigate the Blues’ dominance around the ruck. I reckon this one will be a tight old affair and while the handicap is slim, I’ll be taking the ‘Canes on the plus.

我认为飓风队 6-2 的选择是明智的，将削弱蓝军在比赛中的统治地位。我认为这将是一场紧张的老比赛，虽然障碍很小，但我将采取“加号手杖”。

Highlanders 24/10 | Draw 20/1 | Crusaders 7/20 (09:05)

Handicap
Highlanders (+7.5) 9/10 | Crusaders (-7.5) 9/10

We’ve got our second Kiwi derby of the day next up as the Highlanders and Crusaders lock horns, and with both sides desperate to sneak into the quarter-finals mix, this one could get spicy. Of the two sides, the Highlanders are in a more commanding position on the log as they lie in seventh place but they are only six points ahead of the Crusaders who sit in tenth.

高地人 24/10 |抽奖 20/1 |十字军 7/20 (09:05)让分高地人 (+7.5) 9/10 |十字军 (-7.5) 9/10 接下来我们将迎来今天的第二场新西兰德比，高地人和十字军将展开角逐，双方都渴望闯入四分之一决赛，这场比赛可能会变得激烈。两支球队中，高地人队在积分榜上处于更有利的位置，他们排在第七位，但他们只比第十名的十字军领先六分。

The Crusaders’ short-lived renaissance ended last weekend as they were unable to back up their 39-0 Round 10 win over the Rebels as they went down 28-33 at home to the Reds. They once again played in fits at starts, allowing the Reds to build up an early lead before hitting back. They then did the same in the second stanza but couldn’t overturn the Reds’ lead, having to settle for a losing bonus point from the fixture.

十字军短暂的复兴于上周末结束，他们在第10轮比赛中未能以39-0战胜叛军，最终在主场以28-33输给了红军。他们再次在开局打得不稳定，让红军在反击之前就建立了领先优势。然后他们在第二节也做了同样的事情，但无法扭转红军的领先优势，不得不接受从比赛中失去的奖励分。

While the ‘Saders lost their eighth fixture of the campaign, the Highlanders were enjoying a much-needed rest week. They had been in decent enough touch before their week off, edging the Force 7-6 in Round 9 and then beating Moana Pasifika 17-28 in Tonga.

虽然萨德队输掉了本赛季的第八场比赛，但高地人队正在享受急需的休息周。在休息一周之前，他们的表现一直不错，在第9轮中以7-6击败了Force，然后在汤加以17-28击败了Moana Pasifika。

Even with an extra week off, Highlanders captain Billy Harmon has yet to recover from a cut hand he sustained against Moana Pasifika and he is out for this one along with Connor Garden-Bachop who is following head injury protocols.

即使多休息一周，高地人队队长比利·哈蒙（Billy Harmon）在对阵莫阿纳·帕西菲卡（Moana Pasifika）时手部割伤的情况仍未恢复，他和康纳·加登·巴乔普（Connor Garden-Bachop）将缺席本场比赛，后者正在遵循头部受伤协议。

While the visitors are missing some key men, the Crusaders welcome a couple back with All Blacks Tamati Williams and Cody Taylor both returning this weekend.

虽然客队缺少一些关键球员，但十字军欢迎一些球员的回归，全黑队的塔马蒂·威廉姆斯和科迪·泰勒都将在本周末回归。

Verdict: Crusaders 7/20

结论：十字军 7/20

With some big guns returning I reckon we could see the Crusaders put in a proper shift this weekend.

随着一些大炮的回归，我认为我们可以看到十字军在本周末进行适当的转变。

Waratahs 11/4 | Draw 25/1 | Brumbies 2/7 (11:35)

Handicap
Waratahs (+9.5) 9/10 | Brumbies (-9.5) 9/10

It’s over to Australia for our penultimate Round 12 game which will see the 11th-placed Waratahs take on the third-placed Brumbies. The hosts have yet to beat any side apart from the Crusaders this term and they face an uphill battle in changing that here. The Brumbies ran out 40-16 victors, in a dominant performance, when the two sides met earlier this term.

战神 11/4 |抽奖 25/1 | Brumbies 2/7 (11:35)让分Waratahs (+9.5) 9/10 | Brumbies (-9.5) 9/10第 12 轮倒数第二场比赛即将在澳大利亚举行，排名第 11 的 Waratahs 将对阵排名第三的 Brumbies。主队本赛季还没有击败过除十字军之外的任何一支球队，他们在改变这一状况方面面临着一场艰苦的战斗。本赛季早些时候两队交手时，布鲁比队以 40 比 16 获胜，表现占据主导地位。

The ‘Tahs will be glad to see the back of Kiwi opposition after the last fortnight, with games against the Hurricanes and Chiefs a rude insight into how big the gulf is between the boys duking it out at the top of the table and the men from New South Wales. While they did have moments in their Round 10 game against the Chiefs – which they lost 22-38 – the same cannot be said of their clash with the Hurricanes last weekend, which saw them thoroughly outclassed in a one-sided fixture that ended 41-12 in favour of the men from Wellington.

塔赫队将很高兴在过去两周后看到新西兰对手的回归，通过对阵飓风队和酋长队的比赛，我们可以粗略地看到在积分榜榜首的男孩们与来自其他球队的男子之间的鸿沟有多大。新南威尔士州。虽然他们在第 10 轮对阵酋长队的比赛中确实有过一些表现——他们以 22-38 输掉了比赛，但上周末与飓风队的比赛却不能这么说，这场比赛让他们在一场一边倒的比赛中彻底落后，最终以 41-41 结束。 12 有利于惠灵顿男子。

While their opponents for Saturday have endured a tough old fortnight, the Brumbies have fared rather better inflicting the Hurricanes’ first loss of the season in Round 10 before backing that up with a hard-fought 28-20 win over a Drua side that was well and truly up for last weekend’s clash.

虽然他们周六的对手经历了艰难的两周，但布伦比队的表现要好得多，他们在第 10 轮中给飓风队带来了本赛季的首场失利，然后以 28-20 的一场苦战战胜了实力强劲的德鲁亚队。并真正为上周末的冲突做好了准备。

As has been the case the entire season, the ‘Tahs have more injury worries with young hooker Julian Heaven out for the rest of season after picking up an injury against the Drua. On the Brumbies side of things, there’s a change at fly-half with Jack Debrezenzi getting his first start of the season in the ten jumper.

与整个赛季的情况一样，塔赫队有更多的伤病担忧，年轻的妓女朱利安·天堂在对阵德鲁亚队的比赛中受伤后将缺席本赛季剩余的比赛。在布鲁比队方面，半场发生了变化，杰克·德布雷森齐 (Jack Debrezenzi) 在十次跳投中首次首发。

Verdict: Brumbies (-9.5) 9/10

结论：布鲁比 (-9.5) 9/10

The ‘Tahs tight five stocks are down to bare bones and I can see the Brumbies heavies taking them to task at scrum and lineout time. My money is on the men from Canberra registering a big win in New South Wales this Saturday.

'Tahs 紧逼的五只股票已经只剩下骨头了，我可以看到 Brumbies 的重量级人物在争球和争边球时间里对他们进行任务。我押注于堪培拉队本周六在新南威尔士州取得重大胜利。

Force 9/10 | Draw 20/1 | Drua 92/100 (13:55)

Our final game of the weekend sees the hapless Force take on a Drua side looking to entrench themselves in the play-off spots. For the Force, their play-off aspirations are all but mathematically over with the men from Perth only able to muster up two victories thus far, while the Drua are well in the mix having on double the amount as the Force.

力量 9/10 |抽奖 20/1 | Drua 92/100 (13:55) 我们周末的最后一场比赛将看到倒霉的 Force 队迎战希望巩固自己在附加赛席位的 Drua 队。对于原力队来说，从数学上来说，他们的附加赛愿望几乎已经结束，来自珀斯的球队到目前为止只取得了两场胜利，而德鲁阿队的胜场数是原力队的两倍。

Speaking of the Force’s losses, last week saw them suffer one of the heaviest defeats of the season as they went down 56-7 to the Chiefs in Waikato. It was a real gut punch for the Force, who had put up a real fight in a 7-6 defeat to the Highlanders a week prior and beaten the Crusaders the round before that.

说到球队的失利，上周他们在怀卡托以 56-7 输给酋长队，遭遇了本赛季最惨重的失败之一。这对原力队来说是一次真正的打击，一周前他们曾进行过真正的战斗，以 7-6 输给了高地人队，并在之前的一轮中击败了十字军。

Like their opponent, the Drua also head into it one off the back of a defeat. Unlike their opponents, however, the Drua can take a lot of positives from last weekend’s 28-20 defeat to the Brumbies in Canberra with the Drua coming back from 21-3 down at half-time to just miss out on a losing bonus point.

和他们的对手一样，德鲁阿队也在一场失败后迎头赶上。然而，与他们的对手不同的是，德鲁亚队可以从上周末在堪培拉以 28-20 输给布鲁比队的比赛中获得很多积极的东西，德鲁亚队在半场以 21-3 落后的情况下逆转，只是错过了一个失利的奖励分。

Verdict: Drua 92/100

结论：德鲁亚 92/100

I think the Force will struggle to keep the Drua’s exciting backs quiet in this one.

我认为原力将很难让德鲁阿令人兴奋的背部安静下来。
