No ALB or Cane there to give away dumbass cards like 2023 unfortunately for you.
Still Finau though he is worth 6 or 9 points

@Chris good luck , it's most likely your time again.
Thanks mate a bit nervous about this one,the chiefs are a very good side.
And they play in a style that we tend to struggle against.
Hopefully some of the intangibles come to the fore
We need a big shift from our forward pack.
And our back 3 stand up under pressure I am sure Jordan and Reece will,a bit worried about Springer under the high ball and his kick returns.Should have signed Jonah Lowe.

If Williams is fit, you're halfway there.

@antipodean Another thing said in that Sam Casey interview is that Williams has no structural damage to his knee - which mirrors what @chris said earlier.
Hopefully correct.

Jesus Christ the chat from the Crusaders pundits is unbearable
and they've got their comics wrong, it's Obelix not Asterix.

There isn’t. It’s more bruising, a little concern over bone bruising but has been fine all week. A good Burnside man will play through the pain

Forecast looks to be wet with a bit of a Southwester..
I am neutral in this match , but really looking forward to it. Especially the Dmac v Reihana match upThe two big factors that I think will decide the game are discipline and the set piece.
Crusaders scrum may prove to be the difference, but will be close.
I think the Chiefs need to get up early and take the local crowd out of it a bit., get the sneaky cow bells ringing and take all points on offer.
-
would be great if they could get the cowbells in sync on thier phones/bluetooth, otherwise it will just be hundreds/thousands playing it on thier phones so will just be noise

Christchurch people, any pre-match bar recommendations?
Loft bar would be the ideal spot if you can get a table mate. I suggest booking in

Thought being a Burnside man you might have suggested the little brown jug......🤔

I would think Sam Whitelock would be the one 'standing out' of those 5......
