      @Machpants good defence but the ruck speed for the Chiefs is painfully slow.

      That was the key to Chch in first 60. Chiefs didn’t adjust.

        Yes, but Chch offside a lot and overplayed when some kicks were better option.

          Chiefs lost that in first half.

          I’d put a lot of that down to less physicality and, given Chch seemed to be playing two 7s, inefficient cleaning.

          Which suggests absence of Vaa’i and Finau was big factor.

          Noticeable that when Taranaki front row came on and Ah Khoi went to lock this improved a lot.

          Take away the late intercept and Chiefs might well have run Chch down.

          Ref, repeated offsides and no DMac all factors, but not decisive, IMO.

            Hamilton just can’t beat us when it counts. I hope Hamilton plays us in the Quarterfinals.

              Yeah I thought Hamilton were poor due to the Crusaders pressure and defence or they just are not the team they were last year.
              Hamilton just got outplayed.

                See, I always put his referring to the Crusaders as Christchurch as being on par with people who don't call the All Blacks, All Blacks. Because they are scary.

                  It also downplays that the taranaki splitters are part of them, you know the only PU that's not been part of a SR champ team.

                    I think the early try New Plymouth got meant they mentally switched off a bit, and by the time they refocused they'd let the game slip through their fingers and they couldn't run Blenheim down.
