@stargazer Well the Chiefs will be feeling they won't set a new losing streak record, Ledger or a baby at 10

Two good matches the WE. In that the winner is not (almost) known in advance. The only question is by how much

Yes this match is the cripple fight. But still could be a good match. As the warm up to the main event. I look forward to the Canes naming their team. I'm sure the first names selected will be Blackwell and Prinsep. And the team won't make the sensible decision and start Barrett at 10. But who knows. I might be pleasantly surprised.

I think we'll get within 13 but will lose. We're pretty fucking shit right now.

Nah I'd love to but got a birthday party to go to. Sunday's crap too, I want Saturday night so I've got an excuse for hotel and over night in Auckland!

[Toddy]

I've got a real bad feeling the Canes are going to let the majority of the country down and lose to the Chiefs before the Chiefs manage to create a record super losing streak.

[Gunner]

I hope the Chiefs get up and win this, for the sake of the competition.
It's not cool having a whipping boy when there are only 5 teams in the comp.

That Ruben Love comes across as a kid with a future. Really seems to have smarts and his head screwed on going by his appearance on Breakdown last night.
He mentioned that he has been training solely as a fullback but surely he is also an option at 10?

Paul Williams is reffing the U13s curtain raiser I assume?

Which is stupid because he played the whole club rugby season at 10, maybe they have him at 15 to try and give him more time.

[Yeetyaah]

I'd expect Lowe and ALB to start. I'd still be fine with McKenzie at 10 and Stevenson at 15 but idk there's a hard on for Gatland.

[Stargazer]

@yeetyaah They might do to Lowe what they did to Falcon, last year. Make him play for BOP for the Chiefs Centurion Cup.
