The Silver Fern

Biggest fucking blue balls man, I’m off to get drown my sorrows, until next season team

Spotted Clayton and the coaching staff walking near the cathedral, looked relaxed. Can’t wait till kick off.

Christchurch people, any pre-match bar recommendations?

@Chris as a Chiefs fan, i shouldn’t have giggled at this ffs

Wow there were next to no tickets available for public sale! Lucky we got a couple in the social stand but expected at least some small percentage of all ticket categories to be available for a public sale

@nostrildamus flights always go up over long weekend’s too - Matariki on Friday.

@Yeetyaah yeah, I checked right at full time and again this morning, Air NZ fully milking it - prices went up couple hundred for return last night! Luckily flying out from Wellington so was about 550 return.

@ploughboy hope you enjoy my friend

Right Chiefs fans, how many of us are flying down?

As a Chiefs fan I’d honestly rather play the Brumbies than Hurricanes in a semifinal, it’ll still be tough but I feel like the Canes were more likely to have been another banana skin

Peni at 6, Parker at 8 and Sititi on the bench is interesting - but it’s pretty obvious Clayton wants to bash the Blues up front from the get go with big bodies and intensity.

Chiefs can do it but after second half against the Canes, I fear they might mentally fold/peaked too early. Playing D Mac and Sititi who won’t be 100% fit shows that McMillan is not taking any risks.

Chiefs fan here, this game has me a little nervous I can’t lie despite the bookies having us heavy favourites. Canes have their strongest 23 of season at home, big win away last week, they’ve been wanting to get us back after last year’s semi since full time of that game and in the context of their season a win here is huge. I just hope we don’t mentally fold, however if we’re up when it’s time for both teams to go the bench, I think we’ll see it out.
