Phew!!!
Cripple fight that looked impressive.
Yay me (@Duluth )
High quality game IMO
I still think we are the worst two teams in this conference. Maybe Otago putting up there hand now, I suppose

@kev agree,really good cameo from both Moulds and Nock especially,2 box kicks were superb..and speed of pass is much quicker than Ruru..good game,much better than last nights game..you know it’s not gonna be your night Wainui flicks a pass up into his hands at pace..a couple pieces of good fortune definitely helped the chiefs out ..Robinson was still smashing into rucks in the closing stages.

I don’t think there is anything between the bottom four. It’s tight.
Crusaders well ahead of everyone (in the whole comp).

@KiwiMurph thought Moulds looked really good. Nailed his throw(?s). Went forward with runs. Blues ran out of time.

Threw well enough too. We have jettisoned players like Collins and Pulu, should be Parsons turn now.

Given Hodgman was carrying well into contact, he probably didn't expect the pass. Tu’inukuafe was huge again. As was the big ginger.

Missed this game, how bad is Dmacs injury?
Did his knee, possibly his ACL. Iced both the front and the back of his knee, so not sure. Waiting for updates.

@Stargazer argh that is shit news. Hansen will be spewing. Hope he's okay for WC.

Relieved to get that one. Picked the Chiefs by 5 in Superbru but was hoping it wouldn’t be that tight for the blood pressure.
While the result was a similar score differential to the last 2-3 years, this does look like a different Blues team. I didn’t want us to kick the ball away as the Blues always seemed to have space and numbers to operate with. At one stage the Chiefs missed tackle count was double...
Read during the week that Nonu had been an idol of ALB’s growing up, and he got a close look at him bumping him off for that first phase try..!
Some great displays of individual skill in that game from the backs especially.
-
Not sure why people are gloating about Nonu's try. For the rest of the game ALB was far superior.
However the Chiefs rode their luck otherwise. An intercept and a miracle try were the difference.

From Nigel Yalden's twitter: He’ll have a scan in the morning but no definitive diagnosis yet. No immediate swelling to the knee which I’m informed is a good sign.

Great game to watch. Loved the pace both teams played at, especially the Blues. Both halfbacks for the Blues tonight played with a bit of urgency. Pulu should take note.
If we are being objective, Nonu didn’t have a great game but scored a great try. ALB looked dynamic tonight. And who was that bulldozer that came off the bench for the Chiefs in the backs? Big unit.
