Fuck my tipping. That was awesome.

Salt in the wounds.
 
Did I see at about 60 mins that the handling errors were Crusaders 15 - 7 Chiefs? Yikes.

Chiefs forwards dominated. 
Loving nz conference

Hooroo

Well I feel we completely deserved that. Forwards and back were immense. After ten mins I thought we were in for a hiding. We are better than I thought

No. Chiefs won that one 9-6. It wasn't handling errors though, it was turnovers conceded. Which the Crusaders won 18-11 in the end it seems.

Saders deserved to lose. Worst game I have seen by a cantab team in my life. At times it became laughable with each turnover and knock on even though it was slightly better in the 2nd half. Mo'unga is a Super Rugby standard goal kicker, but is probably in the bottom 2 or 3 1st 5s in the entire Super Rugby competition when you consider the total package he offers. His only excuse is he is new and learning. Would be better off learning in the ITM cup than this level though. I think probably the Highlanders back up number 10 would probably have a better head on his shoulders.

Were you not born in 1996 and 2001?

Bit tough on Mo'unga. He's had a couple of off games, this was one of them - but has otherwise been pretty handy this year, certainly much better than would've been expected I'd say.

You haven't seen much of the blues over the last 13 years, have you

Just didn't like it up him. Always under pressure with no answer

I lived overseas for many years in Canada so there is a gap in my rugby viewing. I know the 80s like the back of my hand when Canterbury had a mighty team with Robbie Deans and company, and then returned to NZ around 2006. The only rugby I saw in the intervening years were world cups. Saw NZ lose to France in a world cup semi final in a bar with some other Kiwis and we had a serious discussion about whether we should break the table and chairs around us when the final whistle blew.

The Canes and Landers are thanking the Chiefs. It's all on in the NZ conference now!
 
Very impressed with the Chiefs scrum and defence of the lineout drive. The Crusaders would have expected to get some reward there.

Good to see Dagg waited until being back with the Crusaders to bust out the stutter step again. Hopefully he ditches it again for the ABs.
 
Worryingly it appears to be spreading to other fleet of foot ABs as BBBR did one as well!

Crucial

Just seen the result. Will have to wait until later to watch. 
Fucken awesome! Needed that. 
Rennie > Blackadder (still) but I guess even the Cantabs would admit that one. What's the head to head record between them?

But did he pull a face while doing it?
