Three of those teams are in action on Friday night; Ulster traveling to Edinburgh, Ospreys hosting Welsh rivals Newport Gwent Dragons, and Scarlets in Italy to face Zebre. Edinburgh can do their Scottish neighbours, Warriors, a favour if they can defeat Ulster however their record against the Ulstermen is not great. Meanwhile Ospreys and Scarlets must both be looking to come away with maximum points from opponents who are sitting at the wrong end of the table in their bids to reach the Play-Offs. The leaders, Glasgow Warriors, are not in action until Saturday, and are the only one of the potential Play-Off teams to face another side from the top half of the table when the visit Leinster at the RDS. Munster will also be looking for maximum points in the All-Irish clash against Connacht if they are to make a final push for the knockout stages. With just two points separating the top three teams in the table, whilst it is even closer for the final Play Off spot, there is definitely all to play for still as the RaboDirect PRO12 enters its closing stages.

  • Phonetic Guide
    Phonetic Guide Fiji Introduction Fijian uses the Roman alphabet, as do English and most European languages, but some of the letters represent sounds in ways that are unexpected for English speakers. The following letters present no problems, as they represent the same sounds as they do in English spelling: f, h, l, m, n, s, w, and y. The vowels are a little different from English – and how different they are, depends on what kind of English you speak. But if you are a speaker of German, Italian or Spanish, you should have no problems at all, because the five vowels (a, e, i, o, u) are pronounced almost exactly the same. The pronunciation is roughly as follows: a as in 'spa' e as in 'pet' i as in 'machine' o as in 'sore' u as in 'too' Two vowels together retain their original pronunciation (unlike in English), so that lai is pronounced like 'lie', cei like 'they', kau like 'cow', and so on. There are some differences in the pronunciation of consonants that English speakers need to bear in mind: b, d have a preceding nasal consonant, so b sounds like 'mb' and d like 'nd' k, p, t are as in English, but without the puff of breath that usually follows. Also, t often sounds like 'ch' before the vowel i, so oti is often pronounced as if it were oji ('ochi'). r is rolled, as in Scottish English, Spanish, etc. v is pronounced by placing the lips together (not with the lower lip against the upper teeth as in English).
