Rebels v Chiefs

[Stargazer]

@Chris No. It's winner QF1 (Crusaders v no. 8 ) against winner QF2 (Hurricanes v no. 5).

[Stargazer]

[Chris]

Strange format if the Brumbies and Jags lose
The second SF would be played at Hamilton yet they finished 7th if it goes that way

[Stargazer]

What I'm most afraid of, is that the game between the Bulls and Lions will be rigged. Like, instead of the Bulls smashing the Lions completely as they should be able to, the Bulls allowing the Lions a bonus point, so that the Lions make the finals instead of the Highlanders. I don't trust that lot over there.

[Chris]

@Stargazer no neither do I also be Rigged if the Lions look like winning they allow The Bulls to get a bounce point to shaft the Highlanders either way would not surprise me whose the Ref ???

[Stargazer]

Refs for Bulls v Lions:

Referee Marius van der Westhuizen
AR1 Egon Seconds
AR2 Stefan Geldenhuys
TMO Christie du Preez

[Chris]

Highlanders must be gnashing their teeth about the draw with the Bulls, they'd have been secure.

[Chris]

@Donsteppa yeah it may come back to haunt them looking at those match officials

[Chris]

@Stargazer yeah that’s a worry

[mariner4life]

Can you crusader superfans take your irrelevant shit out of our gloat thread please? I couldn't give a fuck about the refs for a game none of us will watch.

How fucked is Australian rugby? Mega fucked? Or ultra-mega fucked?

[Stargazer]

@mariner4life That game is relevant to the Chiefs' (and Highlanders') spot on the table, so you should give a f*ck.

[mariner4life]

Nope

[Chris]

@mariner4life ok Will let you have your wee hug yourself fukin session as it’s not going to last long

Quite absolutely this.

Great that we will lose to the Saders next week (or even better, trip then up and let some one else win), but this team isn’t quiiiiiiite good enough.

Much, much, better that we are with BBBR and Cane back, plus ALB, we are still only dangerous, but sadly not a Super winner.

If we can trip up that many teams in a run though, I’ll be drunk for a week.

I do think we should sign Debreczeni next year (I’ve even learned how to spell it).

I saw some headline somewhere midweek about how pleased they were that the Reds had beaten the Blues.......

[Chris]

@gt12 you should sign him he’s been very good last 2 games before the Aussie’s have a crack at getting him back with a Wallaby jumper as they have fuk all at First five

[ACT Crusader]

Has Debreczeni signed with any NPC side?

[Nepia]

Damn, the Chiefs turn it on in their last two regular season matches. Crazy.

In my mind they were hopeless all season and near 14th on the table rather than in the top 8.

Decent ground to watch rugby in, went to dinner at my favourite Melbourne restaurant Supernormal before the game so all in all it was a good night.

[NTA]

@Nepia one day I'll get there and get an idea of how it compares to Bankwest stadium, which was fucking rad
