They're acting like muppets. -
<p>Despite the refereeing, the Lions deserve to win this. Much better across the park. Crusaders simply have too many donkeys on the field.</p>

<p>Pity the Blues were rebuilding this year under Tana, otherwise the Crusaders would have been rightly out of the finals.</p> -

Love it when saffas come outta the woodwork because they might actually sniff a tiny bit of success. Only to disappear when the inevitable loss happens eh.. -

<br>
Lots of walking around by a couple of players since the 65-70th minute. Havili in particular. -
Picked this result. It all comes down to squad selection which has been generally poor by Blackadder.<br><br>
I for one look forward to a new coach.<br><br>
Lions are the only decent non-NZ side in the competition this season. -

Nah we had all those matches vs the Aussie teams that gave us easy wins [emoji1] -
Well done Lions. Excellent speed at the line. That young 2nd 5 played excellent and would be my MOTM.

<p>I wonder if Blackadder got the senior ABs together at the start of every year and said what have you been doing with Hansen..?</p>
-
<p>Well done Lions - deserved winners. Don't think we got much help from Joubert, but we were well short of the mark, really.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Too much headless chookery in the second half when we'd given ourselves half a chance and - as antipodean says - in the final analysis - too many donkeys on the field.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Thought McNicholl had a pretty good game and season, really. Mo'unga was better this week than the last several. Not many others who covered themselves in glory - Crotty was solid, Taufua tried hard.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Thought most of our ABs came back from the ABs camp worse than they went in - enthusiasm and belief just seemed to sap away particularly last week and this.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Definitely time for a change in coaching and a clean out of players - at least Toddy has left Razor with plenty of scope for improvement.</p> -

<p>That would be a Lions vs Highlanders final as the Lions are the higher ranked finalists.</p>
