Final - Crusaders v Chiefs
-
Looks like the southwesterly has gone, still clear night in here the capital of the mainland.
Different conditions to game the against the Brumboys, where we had complete control.
The Mighty is back in time for Matariki, think the Cowbell-fuckers will avoid scrums.
WE WILL WIN IF:
Scrum holds. Shalfoon, Barrett, Blackadder and Lil' Willie can get in early pressure on the Chiefs loosies, then Syrup McKenzie flakes under pressure (as we all well know happens when it gets tough). Reece, Jordan and Springer catch all their high balls and Ratima wins the kicking battle because DMc will shank it off his ankle at a key time. O'Connor comes on to kick the ceremonial. -

Hurry up kickoff. The Warriors are dire tonight as a curtain raiser.
Not looking good for the Chiefs tonight, Hastings Boys lost (robbed), not the Warriors are getting done like they're the Warriors of old. It's the Crusaders to lose tonight.

Fk come on the Chiefs, can’t stand to see the Crusaders lift the bloody trophy again playing scrum, maul, scrum.
I’ll be over the moon if we win, but more important is not seeing the Chiefs hold aloft that trophy. Would make me 🤮

Butchered the anthems .. seemed slow and stilted

Perfect weather for a slow rendition of the national anthem. Who wouldn't want to stand still for that long needlessly?

So we've established you can goo straight off your feet at the rucks. This should be a messy game.

40 seconds in and the Chiefs give us our first crappy box kick
And Scooter does his first push in the side and then flop over the ruck.
This is how test rugby is reffed. They don't care about the breakdown
