Two strong sides, really looking forward to this. Could be a defining game for either side.
going to be a cracker I reckon, can't wait
With those team listings I would say that the 'on paper' favourite is the Blues.
not in a derby game in the Tron. OUr record there is woeful. You don't get to claim underdog status that easily, not after you shoulda won last time eh
It's weird as I naturally think the Blues should be favourites but the home game factor does help us. Is this the first leg of home and away between these two this season?
I hope it's a decent game and the Waikato get up

As much as I wanted to see Evans at 12, I can understand the patient approach. He's just played twice last week including his first ever start, he's only 20 years old and only played 2 games of NPC. There's two tough away derbies coming up for Blues - it's probably a good time to spell him and bring him back for the games vs the Aussie teams.

I can understand going for the Nock and shitty Riccitelli on the bench too. I'll be disappointed if they aren't getting passed by Funaki and Vikena in the second half of the season though

Tele'a probably a bit lucky to stay on the bench.

@kiwimurph I bet he starts or at least is in the 23 against the Saders!

@taniwharugby he's gone ok? Solid enough without being too spectacular, a cpl of try assists in the last cpl games mightve juuust kept him in the frame

I've enjoyed his defence more than anything, a wrecking ball at times. Hasn't had many opportunities and plays like it sometimes, trying to do too much. At least he's having better luck with injuries this year.
-
ready to the second game. I think the Chiefs will win because the Blues still do not know how to win the big matches.

@broughie they are much smarter than the canes!
@taniwharugby top 6 inches are important. Canes, especially a couple of players, make too many mistakes.

Milo-Harris on the bench
A warmup injury to Fin means @lisati_miloharris will make his Blues debut off the bench 🔥 Sam Nock starts. -

Christie out, Nock starting. Chiefs should be favourites now
That would have changed my tip had I known 24 hours ago.
