SRA Round 10: Blues v Chiefs

it is astounding to me that this is a dead rubber for the Chiefs
That Blues squad is absolutely stacked. They have a supposed good coach, and a respected assistant. The Chiefs lost every game last season, and the first two this season.
And yet, here we are. Chiefs are resting players for the final.

Read that out loud and it makes it even better.
I was thinking the if nothing else, the Crusaders are favourite for the final as their last game was a soft win and then a week off.. but I'm really just trying to rub it in (While rubbing one off!)

Goes to show how tight wins are the difference between media saying 'hero' or 'zero'. McMillan didn't suddenly become a great coach, and Leon didn't suddenly turn to custard. It's just fine fine margins in a brutal comp

Absolutely every team has lost to bottom of the table sort of. As someone said in Chiefs thread, the only difference for the Chiefs this year is that the small rub of the green has helped rather then hindered them this season.

Top heavy, lacks balance. The stacked chick doesn't score every night. Sometimes the fat lady seals the deal. Or, in this case, DMac.

Not serious. That would have to be a very dedicated agent and I don't think Rangi is that good an actor..

Never trust those Cantabs. Agent Deans did a great job for them as did Agent Hammett. Agent Gibson started work on the Tahs and Agent Penney finished it.

This just adds to the mystery of the Crusaders franchise, if it isn't the players, the coaches, or the grounds (as shown by earthquakes)..it must be the... halftime oranges?

10 time champs playing at home (where they have never lost a playoff game) try to claim underdog status. Gotta love the NZ mentality.
