South Africans dominated the Super Rugby Team of Round 14 with 7 players making it into the team this week.  The Stormers showed they can win on the road with a few injuries when their midfield can boast two great performers in De Jongh and Sadie while Fourie and De Villiers are out.  The Bulls and Cheetahs are also finishing strongly with players like Morne Steyn and Adrian Strauss firing.  The Lions are also well represented in this squad with two players.  No one from the ugly draw between the Force and Brumbies made this team thankfully, while two Waratahs outside backs were the only Australians.  This sums up the quality of the Australian conference!  Liam Messam continues his good form for the Chiefs, while Luke Romano had a huge game for the Crusaders.  What a dilemma to have for the Cantabs with bargain priced Romano having competition from Brad Thorn and Sam Whitelock returning from injury and Chris Jack also in the squad over the coming weeks!  Alby Matthewson was a surprise inclusion for an inside back.

Remember, the best Australian team and two of the New Zealand teams weren't playing in Round 14.
