    I've been looking over the Chiefs side that pipped Crusaders at the death two weeks earlier:

    As of current ability, form & age (Ross > Moody), Taylor < Taukei'aho, Newell < Ta'avao, Strange < Vaa'i, Retallick = Whitelock, Boshier < Blackadder, Cane > Christie, Matera < Gus Sowakula, Roe > Drummond, Gatland < Mo'unga, Nanai-Seturo < Fainga'anuku, Tupaea > Havili, Lienert-Brown > Ennor, Stevenson < Reece, Narawa < Jordan.

    Replacements: Bradley Slater > Shilo Klein, Ollie Norris > Abraham Pole, George Dyer > journeyman Bower.

    Naitoa Ah Kuoi > Dom Gardiner, Tom Florence < Cullen Grace, Bryn Hall < Cortez Ratima, Fergus Burke < Rameka Poihipi, George Bridge < Rivez Reihana.

    My opinion is that in total 16/23 of that Chiefs team are superior players than their Crusader opposites.

    Your opinion is shot when you have Slater better than anyone.

    Have to say Crucial, I reckon Slater is a better hooker than you giving him credit for, well I personally reckon he not bad. He's not a test player or anything, but he not bad.

    Yeah, but I fought hard for underdog status earlier in the thread and I’m not going to give it up easily 😉

        @crazy-horse Chiefs fans obviously have a real fear of being the favourites. They won the last one. Let's be honest, if the Chiefs don't win this comfortably, it will be a choke.:grinning_face_with_big_eyes:

          It's not a fear. It just makes the win all that sweeter.

              Don't forget Chiefs lack of familiarity with the ground conditions. Ancient memory for them only.

                    As a walking GOD he will still be able to out-dance Clayton McMillan's NZ 1990s male side shuffle dance.

                    There's already been a huge upset this weekend, their wont be two, the Crusaders by a bajillion. I'm not sure I'll even bother watching as it will be such a missmatch.

                          he has a bad back and can't breakdance ATM,So another factor against us.

                          As a walking GOD he will still be able to out-dance Clayton McMillan's NZ 1990s male side shuffle dance.

                          There's already been a huge upset this weekend, their wont be two, the Crusaders by a bajillion. I'm not sure I'll even bother watching as it will be such a missmatch.

                          Now you are trying tooooo Hard.

                          covid hit Crusaders,Home ground advantage feral Chiefs fans in the stands,A Crusaders team apparently stacked with AB'S who shouldn't be ABs The worlds worst Winger.
                          Crusaders will be lucky to hold the Chiefs to 60 points if we lose by less than 30 its a win us.:downcast_face_with_sweat:

                                          Couple of sliding doors moments so far.

                                          If they’d gone either way, either team would be away.
