Without Reihana, crusaders probably out in the semis. What a find.
Jordan definitely the Crusaders difference maker in these big games. Reihana has been superb, seems like a steady hand, unlike DMac.
Jordan looks to have bulked up his upper body substantially, carries a lot more into contact.

Well I called it at the start of the thread, all my teams lost this week. Congrats Crusaders. Back to the future. Penney finally wins at Super Level.
That was easily Reihana's best game of pro rugby, his best game since his schoolboy days. Jordan looks like a fullback these days. Taylor is in cracking form. Skafoon was really good too.
I can't be too nice to the Crusaders though so for the spice I'll say Reece is a dickhead and Blackadder was his usual busy but largely ineffective self.
Terrible game by the Chiefs. The bot called it correctly, QT was the only Chief with a good game.
There's been some hysterical commenting on this thread though, you'd think no team or player had ever had a bad game before tonight.

Reihana, Jordan and saders front row were immense.
Every scrum in the 2nd half was a penalty opportunity. Chiefs had no answers.

See, LJ still thinks it was a one point loss. Should never have come back on

@Nepia at least the friggen Lions turned up this week or i would be on an all-time stinker

Jacobson not knowing the score...another sign he should have stayed off....
That's malpractice in my eyes and I am even more angry about sam cane's red now as rugby obviously doesn't really give a fuck about player safety

He also spoke like it was a home game when referring to the fans.

Yup not a great look at all - as someone said in the thread - they are more interested by the cards... at the end of the day if there is a head clash worthy of a card surely both heads need assessing --
As for Jobcobson - I could see he was knocked out from Invercargill so what they hell were the officials looking at

I think we've seen the end of calls for Stevenson to be an All Black based on that performance.
And Beaudy is now clear first choice 10.
I would still have DMac as first five. No his fault their front row wasn’t up to it.
I see those errors most weeks. The difference was the Crusaders set piece was so dominant the Chiefs didn’t have the attacking opportunities they usually do. Probably the missing thing in DMacs game was goal kicking - conversion wide out and a penalty from 45m. Small margins.

That was a Good result...
I can Die happy, unless I'm still around this time next year in which case the Sadders will just have to do it again.
