@chris don't forget the Highlanders
If they do the job against the Canes then yep for sure they are a chance too.

Surely Sowakula covers lock? He's done it before and he's taller than Parker.
How you feeling here @Yeetyaah being a staunch Chiefs fan you in with a chance ? I reckon you are a rough chance in this game at home.

@kiwimurph I wouldn’t count out the Canes either if they manage to pip the Landers tomorrow night.

@canes4life My worry with the Canes is they might have dug themselves too much of a hole with 3 games dropped already and still have to play Blues away and Crusaders again after this weekend. All without a first five.
@kiwimurph yeah your probably right. Last week was a must win and they might have too much to bite off from here. I guess the important thing is they build combinations and get some confidence going into the Aus comp and into next year.

@chris haha I already said above that I'm not confident looking at that team.
I could see an upset.

@chris you'd be the only one. I mean we have confidence and momentum (hopefully) after the win but when I see Parker covering lock and Tupaea still starting in the midfield it's hard to look past it.

I am pretty confused how Ofa got off his ban though. Reckless dive ending in a shoulder to the face. He's been banned before for the same thing so I dunno how he got off it.

See below
It is understood the Blues presented detailed video evidence showing Tu’ungafasi had entered through the correct channel, had lowered his body, was never off his feet and his first contact had been arm on shoulder. -

@chris Same tbh. A real banana skin game for the blues here coming off a loss where as the Chiefs are flying high off a win. We lose this and could be in a bit of bother.

Completely forgot Lord was injured too. So we are down to playing loose forwards in the second row, and not particularly tall ones at that.
Surely we can call up Pierce as an injury replacement if the Blues aren't using him.

Fully contracted players cannot be called up by other franchises.

@stargazer
Wasn't serious, just pointing out that Pierce is carrying tackle bags and we have 3 injured locks.
