I think the Chiefs have played their final today. Blues to win it.

I think quite convincingly

Good result to ensure the final is played at New Zealand's national stadium.

Chiefs snatched away the Blues home final advantage at the last, and then ended up giving it back...

We're good like that

Canes shouldn't have started Shields.

Where about half the support next week will be travelling Chiefs fans.

@sparky Cry more.

Boy, the Chiefs played a much smarter game than the Canes, and if they get front foot ball can be a nightmare to play.

Seriously though, whoever can up with the game plan to kick away all their ball was dumb as a rock.

Lots of injuries in both teams too.

[mariner4life]

Let them have their cry. This was their year. And it's ended where it always does.

[antipodean]

@mariner4life you'd think they could cast their minds back a little bit to the Blues steamrolling their way into a final...

[mariner4life]

For all our backline flair, and athletic attacking players, we won that with linespeed and ruck pressure. Every Hurricanes player was constantly under pressure.

But, the Canes worked out how to beat it, play straight and hard. JBarrett for first carrynthen everyone else off that was hard to stop, but a Chiefs defender just kept getting off the line and in their face.

After most of our existence being defined by being flakey, that's fun to watch.

This year went a lot better than I expected at the start. Really proud of the squad's efforts.

Looking forward to what the squad will achieve next season with Ardie Savea and Cam Roigard back.

All I ask is for the final is for Angus Gardner to NOT be the referee next week.

I agree

Doleman then

Be BOK as Canes aren't in ti I guess.

Geez that was great game, and as a Canes man, I not gutted or anything, I didn't think Canes played badly, Chiefs were bloody good !!!

Even when my team loses I love this game!

The consensus at the start of year is that we would finish 4th or 5th of the NZ sides. We did a lot better than that.

This is still mostly a young Hurricanes squad and will probably peak in two or three years time.

Joey Wheeler. I am envious you don't know who he is.

Absolute gronk of the highest order.

[foobaNZ]

Moorby fluffing that try was a massive turning point I felt. Reminded me of the Savea 2015 final drop.

Our handling was poor all night but that took the cake.

Huge shift by Sititi. Thought IWL was very good on a losing team too.
