    I was just about to write that exact question.

    I see Hika Elliot's fall from grace continues...

    As a neutral this should be a great game to watch.

    Crusaders deserving favourites but the Chiefs a better shot at the upset than the Highlanders were last week imo and the conditions while not expected to be great, should make it a little more open than last week's Christchurch game.

    No Alaimalo? Guess he didn't recover fro whatever injury (ankle?) he picked up. Like the look of this kid though, goes looking for work and is hungry for the ball.
    I see Rennie is persisting with Brown at lock. Against the Saders two this is madness.

    Heard on the radio that a few Chiefs could be playing their last games. No mention of Messam though. Is he off or staying for another season?

    Chiefs fans have lowered the expectations of their team when they realised Rennie wasn't much chop and it was all Wayne Smith's doing to win those two titles.

    You're a bit late to this one, Sammy C did it a couple of days ago.

    He's injured. See the 'not considered' list

    Rennie has answered that in saying they have gone for experience in TNW. Stevenson is a proven bencher.

    I have an awful feeling. I love that Chiefs line up but I predict about 30 mins of stability against the Crusaders and then they run away with it.

    Been years for a team to travel and win a playoff. I have hope but mind says nope

    Between him and Sam Cane, they're good for about 6 or 7. But knowing Jacko, he'll probably swallow his whistle... 😎

    I guess 'not considered' means not considered fit enough to be selected for this game.

    The team lists make an interesting contrast.

    The Crusaders are stacked with Test players in the forwards but are nowhere near that quality in the backs while the Chiefs have international players almost right through but the experience at that level is lower.

    Crusaders - 10 (+1 reserve) Internationals/474 (+26) Tests played
    Chiefs - (13 (+2) Internationals/ 270 (+25) Tests played

    RENNIE FIRES UP!!!!

    https://www.stuff.co.nz/sport/rugby/super-rugby/95207461/chiefs-coach-rennies-comments-add-fuel-to-the-fire-ahead-of-semifinal-clash-against-crusaders

    Ummm well in saying he fires up, all he actually does is acknowledge and agree with question.

    I'm just a dumbass that clciked on the article wondering what he was 'firing up' about
