SR Final - Blues v Chiefs
-
@MajorRage
Give him the right game plan. Don’t ask him to stand wide then complain that he isn’t involved in the middle of the field
But back to the final.. that pack was brutal. Poor DMac barely got any ball
@Duluth Paddy T has the same issue. He has the talent as well but it’s not been seen (as often as I’d expect) at the top tier.
Akira and him really could have been era defining All Blacks of the latest era IMHO.
They both gave masterclasses of their talent today.

@Kirwan Did it in the first game against the Drua in Whangarei too, and now in the last game. The man can play anywhere!
-
@Tim Bleeds blue that man. Been there through thick and thin.

Form doesn't mean fuck all in a one-off final. Chiefs have the sting from last year, Blues have the weight of expectation which comes with the favourites tag.
Chiefs 13+
Mana too strong

@Bones said in SR Final - Blues v Chiefs:
Riccitelli, Akira, Plummer, Lam, Funaki to have huge games, making it even stupider come Monday...
It's the blues to lose really.
Agree, I think the Blues will be a step too far for the Chiefs. The Blues will erase their 21 year title draught tonight and will do what the Canes were too dumb to do last week and go straight through the middle of the Chiefs. Blues 1-12 though for me.
Will be interesting to see if Finau can put a few big shots on the Blues forwards.

I hope Laidlaw watched and took note. Blues stick to the plan and win the chocolates

Yesss!!!
Wow what a performance!
Sir Vern.
Best Blues performance since 2003.
Absolutely stoked.
Hard to single out one Blue cos they had so many top performances.
Akira with the game of his career. A big departing fuck you to Razor
Christie - I was wrong. Even with some limitations in his game he was terrific tonight.
Plummer has to be an AB. So should a number of other Blues.
Tuips with a leadership display like no other.
How good was Lam!?
Commiserations Chiefs fans. The conditions didn't suit your game. You'll be back.
Absolutely stoked.

Man - I know you’re stoked , and I’m genuinely stoked for you - but you really thought Christie played well???
I thought he was incredibly laboured the whole game, despite the forward dominance he enjoyed, and that you guys played well in spite of him not because of him. His pass is just so painfully slow, he’s very predictable, and I really can’t see what he offers.

So Bonesetta being a canes fan, a couple of years ago we decided to nominate the other 3 kiwi teams to her mum, dad and brother.
Brother is well on the bandwagon after this morning and wants a blues champions 24 flag for his bar. Any ideas where I could get?
