A crowd of about 17,000 will fill the temporary venue

Taking liberties with language after all this time.

Sell out has made the media

The Crusaders’ last final at Christchurch’s Apollo Projects Stadium has sold out.

The red and blacks host the Chiefs in Saturday night’s Super Rugby Pacific final and said the additional 1300 tickets made available on Thursday had been “instantly snapped up”.

A crowd of about 17,000 will fill the temporary venue 

It was sold out on Tuesday those 1300 tickets were pre sold to members.

What a load of shit.

The Hurricanes would have put the Saders away in 2006 if it wasn't so fucken foggy.

@Yeetyaah Don't know what you're complaining about.

Looks like you're perfectly welcome to take an asterisk to the ground instead of a cowbell.

Just don't wave it about too vigorously - you'll have someone's eye out - and he may not have another!

[mariner4life]

People attach an asterisk to every title in every sport now, it's such low quality trolling. NBA fans are the absolute worst for it.

I support a few teams you could add 8 asterisk to a title and i wouldn't give even one solitary fuck.

[ARHS]

Geez, maybe the Chiefs would have approached the penalty v lineout, and the injury substitutions a bit different if it was sudden death in QF.
There seem to be no depths to the crap coming out in advance of this match.

@Chris-B think Crusaders get this done, maybe more than most think, good luck.

[george33]

@Chris good luck , it's most likely your time again.

And they play in a style that we tend to struggle against.

Hopefully some of the intangibles come to the fore

We need a big shift from our forward pack.
And our back 3 stand up under pressure I am sure Jordan and Reece will,a bit worried about Springer under the high ball and his kick returns.

No ALB or Cane there to give away dumbass cards like 2023 unfortunately for you.

Should have signed Jonah Lowe.

If Williams is fit, you're halfway there.

[Chris B.]

@antipodean Another thing said in that Sam Casey interview is that Williams has no structural damage to his knee - which mirrors what @chris said earlier.

Hopefully correct.

[Mr Fish]

Sam Casey is definitely in the know but sometimes hard to deciper what are facts and what are just his opinions.
