Saders by a thousaaaaand due to their AB stacked side.

Crusaders have 6 current AB’s in the starting 15
The Chiefs have 7

Must be the Chiefs by a thousaaaaad

There are 23 players per side.

I do know that then Chiefs have 8 Crusaders 9
But one is Bridge so it’s even.

Laden, I tell you.
Let’s not forget all the others that you say should be in the ABs.

Pretty handy Crusaders team assuming they can all make it to the starting line.

Chiefs attack might struggle without ALB, PGS and Narawa.

Glad I convinced you.
Underdogs even at home. That will give us to some inspiration.

All this weeks fixtures are a repeat of 2 weeks ago. No one ever accused NZR of having an imagination.

ARHS

@chris my count is 14 crusaders from recent all black squads and 10 from chiefs. Looks fairly evenly matched though. Should be a good contest.

@kiwimurph Saders missing Ennor and Moody though. Could be quite telling.
Good to see the Chiefs spreading it around with a big opportunity for several fringe players. Hope we can see Wrampling soon and on the wing.

I love having rugby to watch, don’t get me wrong, but this is shit. We literally just played these guys.

With nothing but NZ derbies, this competition sucks.

It's ok, you've got your Aussie sports NRL and AFL to watch. You don't need to pretend to be a rugby fan, we'll get by without you.

Less chances for the Chiefs to scrum after knock ons.

Looking forward to this. Bit miffed that the Cheifs get a home crowd whilst our home dump was almost empty. It's the motivation of revenge vs home advantage for mine.

7? I don't follow rugby as close as I use to but isn't it only 6

The Chiefs haven't played at home since May last year against the Brumbies. All the other NZ teams have at least done that since then, even if in front of no crowd.

Not sure that you need to be a mindreader to expect Ennor to shell a catch running onto the ball. Averages at least one per game.
Moody doesn't have the safest hands in contact either.
