Here are my player ratings from Round 15 of Super Rugby. Submit your own, keeping the figures for mediocre scores aside for reasons of brevity and so that the focus is on the best and worst performers.

Scores should be between anyone over 7 and anyone below 4, i.e. for very good and poor performances. Half scores are allowed i.e. 7.5, 3.5 and so on.

Please submit your own scores for a whole team. The minimum is one team, there is no obligation to score all the games. I average the scores per team by the number submitted. I will compile every ones submitted teams scores and produce Wallaby form teams later in the week. There will be one team of the round and three accumulative teams.

Reds – Sharks
The Sharks dominated the Reds at the breakdown and won the collisions. The set pieces were fairly equal in my reading of the game. The Reds’ backs were superior and kept them in the game.

In an interesting tussle, the Sharks were smarter while the Reds were stronger in the scrums.

J. Slipper 7.5/10
J. Hanson 9/10
L. Gill 7.5/10
W. Genia 7.5/10
C. Kuridrani 8/10
S. Kerevi 8.5/10
C. Feauai-Sautia 7.5/10
J. O’Connor 3.5/10

Waratahs – Crusaders
The Waratahs outmuscled and dominated the Crusaders. The final scoreline flattered the Crusaders. The Waratahs had a dominant scrum and surprisingly matched them in the lineout. The backs chimed in well with the forwards.

B. Robinson 8/10
S. Kepu 8.5/10
W. Skelton 8/10
D. Denis 7.5/10
W. Palu 7.5/10
N. Phipps 7.5/10
B. Foley 8/10
R. Horne 9/10
I. Folau 8/10

Force – Highlanders

This was a low quality game. It was error strewn and played with little rugby intelligence. The Force kicked away far too much good possession. The Highlanders never really got out of second gear and just did enough to win.

D. Haylett-Petty 7.5/10

Stormers – Rebels
The Stormers dominated the Rebels at the breakdown and set pieces and won the collisions. The Stormers rush defence was very good. The Rebels kicked behind the rushing defence which worked. The smaller Rebels forwards like McMahon and Jones were found out in contact and it would be worse in Tests.

P. Alo-Emile 3/10
C. Ah-Nau 3/10
P. Leafa 3/10
D. Shipperley 8/10
