Final: Chiefs v Crusaders
-
Trying to be balanced here. By any fair minded measure if Saders awarded the last try in first half the Narawa try from lineout ought to have stood.
Does anyone here seriously want to argue that the Saders would have come back from 15-27 down?
The jesters are welcome to wear their phony crowns, but I celebrate the Chiefs as the best Super Pacific team of 2023.

Think Barrett spoke very well and I feel his performance tonight will probably have him staring in the black #6 in a few weeks With BR and SW in the engine room.
@Mattasaurus they all played well. BBBR got a bit lippy with Ref though.

And by the way, I don't think it was a red card, I sick of people trying to get red cards, I look at why they shouldn't be.
@Dan54 not sure people want red cards, just consistency, which there is a huge lack of.

How good was Tamaiti Williams? Incredible.
I’ll be interested to see what the AB coaches do with him and what size he ultimately settles with.
I thought he had a very good game but that last 5-7 minutes before being subbed he looked to be really sucking in the big ones and laboured a little.

@ACT-Crusader was up a level in intensity that game, more akin to a test that he likely hasnt experienced, let alone for 65 mins, reckon he'd be a good un for the final quarter in black.

Understandable that he flagged in the last few minutes given he played 70 minutes at 144kg and at that pace/intensity.

@taniwharugby definitely. A good test for the young fella. I’m quietly excited about what he might bring to the test arena.

Told you the Crusaders were safe with Ben O’Thief in charge.
So many non calls.
Chiefs had their chances and blew it. It's not on BOK.
Disagree. When the Chiefs get penalised for something that the Crusaders just did it’s not a good look.
It goes both ways. ALB should have been off for 20 not 10.

Can’t believe I’m going to post this butttt ….
Absolutely butt fucked by the referee.
Gold watch for BOK.

Not just BOK. Where were TMO/touchies when there was massive forward pass in first half?
Scooter’s opening remarks were class and told the story.

@KiwiMurph should have been off for the rest of the game

Yeah sorry I meant 20 minute red card. Poihipi would have come on.

Not much lost there.
