Final: Chiefs v Crusaders

gt12

This is a good game.

Some rough calls but both teams are playing pretty well

Two excellent tries

Machpants

Yeah that was the right call, penalty earned by Williams, then cane earns one. But back to the first offence as no advantage

kev

Crusaders lineout work top notch.

KiwiMurph

A much better final than last year

gt12

Crusaders lineout work top notch.

I think half of the ones down the back aren’t straight, but we aren’t putting a man up enough

Dan54

A Bloody good one this game!! Proper feel of final!

kev

Will they review ALB tackle post game or is that it?

Tordah

@kev maybe he can claim some Irish heritage and say it was an absorbing tackle, should be good then

Bones

What the fuck was ALB up to?

How the fuck does Stevenson have defensive shortcomings but yeah cool Jordan is fine?

Vaai sucks as a tight forward.

pakman

Apart from maul, Chch haven’t shown much. But with BOK there worth potentially ten points a half.

@kev I assume like all YC, the citing commissioner can still review it?

Old Samurai Jack

Honestly baffled why SS isn't in the ABs (properly)

pakman

Stevenson try was classic Chiefs.

Bones

Oh and yeah Mounga has not improved on defence.

Mattasaurus

Oh and yeah Mounga has not improved on defence.

Yeah he has, markedly improved from where he was... not perfect but certainly improved

Machpants

@kev I assume like all YC, the citing commissioner can still review it?

Hopefully they review the TMO, too. Should be punished, too.

and despite the whinging, I think BOK had been ok

ploughboy

Turinui critical of Stevenson's defence marshalling on the Mo'unga try

Turinui critical of Stevenson's defence marshalling on the Mo'unga try

He was fooled by the dummy, but either way it was a try. He had too commit, imo

gt12

For the chiefs, its simple, territory and discipline.

Edit: especially we need to cut out the piggy-back penalties
