Round 6 of the 2026 Super Rugby Pacific season is complete and in this blog we recap the results and our bets before turning our attention to Round 7.
ROUND 6 RESULTS
Posted 22 March
It was a weekend of fine margins especially the points plays
Highlanders 7–50 Hurricanes – The Hurricanes money was spot on. I was on under 55.5 and that final conversion killed the bet.
Brumbies 33–24 Chiefs – Brumbies started +3.5 and had been well backed. I was on under 57.5 and eked out a narrow win. My smaller Chiefs 1-12 play was well beaten.
Fijian Drua 6–21 Reds – I went under 58.5 here and it cruised in as the Reds pulled off a minor upset.
Moana Pasifika 21–50 Crusaders – I was on Pasifika +25.5 and 3 points down at the break this looked a winner only for them to capitulate as only Pasifika can.
Waratahs 20–35 Blues – I liked the Blues -6.5 but took the under 55.5 instead and it scraped home by the narrowest of margins.
LEAGUE TABLE UPDATE
After six rounds the Hurricanes remain top of the Super Rugby Pacific standings with 20 points from five matches.

I will be back tonight with my handicap projections for Round 7.
