With just five rounds left before the playoffs of this year’s Super Rugby its time to take a look at who are still contenders and who are the also rans.

At Sport 360 we’ve summed up all 15 teams prospects for the finals and given our prediction on where they will finish, starting with the Australian Conference.

AUSTRALIAN CONFERENCE

Brumbies

Current position: 14th

Prediction: 15th

Grade: D

Already the big disappointment of 2018, the Brumbies have not improved and if anything have gotten worse. Dan McKellar’s team is in a straight shoot out for the wooden spoon with the improving Sunwolves and it may come down to who wins when the Brumbies host the Wolves on June 3.

Rebels

Current position: 9th

Prediction: 9th

Grade: B+

The Rebels started the season superbly winning four of the first five games to make them shock leaders – but since then the wheels have come off. They loss their next five before notching up a crucial come from behind win against the Brumbies in week 13. Will just miss out on the playoffs.

Reds

Current position: 12^th

Prediction: 13^th

Grade: C

Another up and down season with superb results against the Bulls (at home) and the Jaguares (away) followed by shellackings against the Sunwolves and Brumbies. The Reds are a work in progress and are short on depth and experience but Brad Thorn may have them buzzing by next season.

Sunwolves

Current position: 15^th

Prediction: 14^th

Grade: C+

History making back to back wins over the last fortnight with the second coming after the siren against the Stormers via a superb Hayden Parker drop goal. Jamie Joseph has finally got the Wolves growling and they may yet cause a few more upsets before the playoffs.

Waratahs

Current position: 6^th (1^st in Australian conference)

Prediction: Quarter-finals

Grade: B

Finally started to show some form over the last few weeks. The Tahs should have beaten the Crusaders two weeks ago in Christchurch and they finally broke the Kiwi-Ozzie hoodoo against the Highlanders on Saturday. Definitely playoff bound and may even reach the final four with home advantage in the quarter finals.
