Julian Savea’s best game for about 2 years.

@act-crusader Cane is out of form. Should've started Karpik.

Nope. An out of form Cane makes tackles, people forget how average Karpik was in the first half last week.

@no-quarter I thought the Canes forwards were on top in that first half. Really upped their aggression in the tackle.
I didn’t think they would be able to keep it up but they have done well.
Lousi would be a fantastic rugby player if he didn’t run so upright.

I'm pretty pissed but I remember a stat in the first 40 that had the Chiefs 70-30 ahead in territory and possesion. Weber stinking up the joint certainly kept us in it at that point.
But fair call, the Canes forwards have punched above their weight against a pack that includes two of the worlds best. They can be very proud.
Neither of these teams are good enough to go all the way though. Saders are a class above this year.

Too little too late bugger.
Oh well roll on 2019 SR -
Lose the game, win the fight

Some interesting revisionism kicking in here about Canes forward dominance in the first half. The Chiefs were somehow level with a few minutes left to go in the first half, and it sure as fuck wasn't the Chiefs backs who were playing well in the first half....
-
Fuck that was classy from Alaimalo.
@no-quarter Yep it was. Hopefully he will be one of the players that will learn a lot and take that through to next season

PerenaraIn that order, been great for the Canes tonight.
Laumape makes the odd silly decision but fark me he has some upside. Can be brutal.

Boshier deserves that. But for that silly intercept.....

Well done chiefs. Enjoyed the game. Surprised you fellas didn't win but I think you know what positions you need to work on to be champions.
Canes, Canes, Canes. Hmmm. Crusaders next week due to the stupid Super Rules even though that Canes v Saders should be a final match.
