@Nepia is Messam in the squad?

No.

[Tim]

Mitchell Brown is no loss.

That Alaimalo break and pass was vintage late period Blues rugby.

Weber fucking off didn't help, either

Can someone enlighten me why the Chiefs picked their ABs for this game? I get that you don't want four losses in a row but surely this is a game you just give up on after last week? Hurricanes (H), Bulls (A) and Jaguares (A) are all winnable. Then you have the bye and Blues and Lions at home. You could easily win 4 of those 5 with your top team playing.

I’ll sound more flippant than I intend; but losing this by 100+ would have derailed the season beyond repair. They aren’t doing it as they speak, but I think the coaches had to give the team the best chance of putting in a performance to hold their heads higher.

Which mans little when Aliamalo makes a break and passes it to the tea lady.

I get the confidence angle but confidence must be shot if you lose by 50 with the best player in the world.

12. ALB
13. Goodhue

The thought gives me warm feels

Fucking this. With the bulldozer from Wellington on the bench. Loving our midfield options right now.

I just hope SBW doesn't have something in his contract about RWC. Goodhues hands well and truly make up for his absence.

[Tim]

Any word on Moody?

He's been bad again today.

Does there need to be some sort of Crusaders Law, like you can only have so many All Blacks and you must donate a few of your age group players to other teams?

You've got to admire the Chiefs in terms of consistency: whatever the worst possible option is, they seem to take it every time.

It says a lot if an age group player would stay at the Crusaders and compete for a position than go to other teams.

12 - 7. Delusions of not getting thrashed.

Why is TTT not out there? Dmac is bad but Weber is fucking terrible too.

Standing by that post. The key word was “delusions”

[NTA]

@chimoaus I just don't want to give the crusaders any credit

Yeah even the Australian sides can beat this Chiefs team.

[antipodean]

I hope Brodie and ALB have spoken to Steve just to confirm as long as they're fit, they're still on the bus.

Live inside the Chiefs halftime team talk:

[Tim]

Do the Chiefs even run defence drills at training?

[Toddy]

God I hope Sam Cane isn't training with the chiefs. We don't need any of this shit rubbing off on him.
