It's all to play for in the Guinness PRO14

27th February 2018


There is plenty for Cardiff Blues to play for as the race for the Guinness PRO14 play-offs intensifies.

With five rounds of regular season action remaining, the Blues are currently in position to qualify for the European Champions Cup, due to the ineligibility, and are just six points adrift of the South African outfit.

At the beginning of the current block of four PRO14 fixtures, Wales Capital Region were 20 points adrift but victories over the Cheetahs, Munster and Zebre has put them right back in the hunt.

However, Friday's clash against Benetton Rugby has been postponed due to the adverse weather conditions.

The Blues are also set to welcome Ulster to the Arms Park in three weeks, before they travel to face play-off rivals the Cheetahs and Southern Kings in a two-match tour of South Africa.

The regular season finishes with the annual Judgement Day clash against the Ospreys.

Can Cardiff Blues do enough to catch the Bloemfontein-based Cheetahs?
