Final - Crusaders v Chiefs
-
Forecast looks to be wet with a bit of a Southwester..
I am neutral in this match , but really looking forward to it. Especially the Dmac v Reihana match upThe two big factors that I think will decide the game are discipline and the set piece.
Crusaders scrum may prove to be the difference, but will be close.
I think the Chiefs need to get up early and take the local crowd out of it a bit., get the sneaky cow bells ringing and take all points on offer.
-
would be great if they could get the cowbells in sync on thier phones/bluetooth, otherwise it will just be hundreds/thousands playing it on thier phones so will just be noise

Christchurch people, any pre-match bar recommendations?
Loft bar would be the ideal spot if you can get a table mate. I suggest booking in

Thought being a Burnside man you might have suggested the little brown jug......

I would think Sam Whitelock would be the one 'standing out' of those 5......

@ACT-Crusader bloody expensive calling over a top coach from Japan.

Was Tony Morland bought in to talk about their heroic effort in the 2009 final?

Two more Super Rugby titles than Carter...
Probably not a bad thing having a journeyman or two speak amongst the legends given the current Crusaders team. Not a dig, just an acknowledgment that the current crop aren't (yet) of the same ilk as some of the champion teams of past.

They are flushed with cash in the Tron. Tough for the red n blacks to compete with that….
-
Given the contrast in play between Bryn and Drummond and how we went with the latter on the pitch, Bryn was pretty pivotal to our success
-
lol was waiting for that.
I think we all knew I was referring to ABs greats and a player like Mounga… then you throw in a Bryn Hall amongst them. Apologies, I thought that was obvious enough….

Why not throw Bryn Hall in he was there like the others I said ex Players not legends, I was letting
Crusaders supporters know who was there. -
