Table leaders the Bulls, Brumbies, defending champions Chiefs, Crusaders, Reds and Cheetahs have secured their playoff spots.

Meanwhile, only the Bulls, Brumbies, Chiefs and Crusaders have a chance of finishing in the top two, meaning they will have a home semifinal and a bye in the playoffs which is next weekend.

On Saturday the Blues host the Chiefs at 7:35pm and the Waratahs face the Reds at 9:40pm.
