SF Crusaders v Chiefs
-
Only watched the second half, but the Chiefs have been dire. Jacobson was dominated by Valentini, and I guess he did nothing tonight.

He contributed to a forward performance that won an absolute gluttony of possession. Despite playing in a fairly unfamiliar position. And certainly not his fault if that possession was squandered at every post.
Jacobson was one of the Chief's best all season, without performers like him they would be nowhere near playoffs at all. Ridiculous that some suggest he won't make the All Blacks. Baby out with the bathwater stuff.

Well they stood out

Did you guys have a different interview from the one I've got where Marshall's ex asked him the same question 3 times over and he said the Crusaders were good for the win, rued the fact the Chiefs didn't take their chances, and was clearly gutted at the loss.

For a guy so big, Takei'aho's motor is something else. He's just into everything.
He had 24 carries and 10 tackles. Most of those carries were quality too.
I don't think I've seen a player have 24 carries before. Is that a record?

I also expect all those Saders posters that declared QT a cock last week to chime in on what a bigger cock Reece is

@Dice Samisoni surely has that 2 locked up for the All Blacks. He just gets better and better.#beastmode

Looking at the game statistics, imagine the score line if Hall, Mo'unga and Jordan swapped with their counterparts.

He is a tool he should be no where near an AB jersey.

Big games from a Crusader viewpoint by Grace, Barrett and good work of the bench from McAlister,Newell,Williams and Strange
Mounga,Jordan, Havilli were very good
Ennor and Bridge good of the bench.Chiefs

Webber - be a leader and take responsibility. It is after all partly your fault.

It's not the SJW way.

Chiefs need a back 3 with higher work rate and game smarts next year. They pose almost no threat when ball gets kicked to them or passed out wide and rarely feature in kick chases. My feeling is that is why other teams can force so many errors on Chiefs attack and defence... because they don't have a strike player with anticipation and speed. So defenders only have to cover the options in the centre of the park.
Must be gutting for the front row after their huge performance tonight. -

Glaring weaknesses right from the squad selection but there’s only so many of those guys in the game and we didn’t manage to get any of them. -
Meh. Well done Sith.
Great D.
Dumb attack by Chiefies.
Some calls early marginally in Sith's favour (QT YC could have gone penalty only, Matera could have gone Red ... btw second YC was straight red ... but little difference). And a couple of others I can't remember.
What the FUCK was PGS doing when he did everything he could not to score? Fucking seriously.
Otherwise hats off to the Saders.
