I thought the crusaders blues game was clearly the best two teams in the comp?

There's 1 gun team and the rest.

Fuckin' gutsy Chiefs eh.
AB selectors will be looking at Jacobsen and Robinson for their workrates.

[taniwharugby]

@antipodean or a captain who takes the option to kick.

Huge final quarter fro Jacobson

Yep, the battle to be runner up is the only one of interest...

Well done Chiefs. Blues were off their game and didn't take the penalty kicks.

Pretty sure that GCT was fine though.

That was an obvious obstruction. No excuse there.
He would have been fine if it hadn’t splintered though

[Billy Tell]

Great game despite the incessant errors. Papalii was outstanding for the blues and Jacobsen also decent for the chiefs.

McKenzie IMO is best at 10 off the bench against a tiring defence.

AB selectors have sone hard decisions especially in the loose forwards.

[taniwharugby]

man we have some quality loosies running around NZ at the moment!!

If every maul was refereed that way I'd agree with you. Not much wrong with it to be fair - transferring the ball doesn't create an offside player in front.

Maybe Tuipulotu should spend more time training and less time practicing non English speeches

[sparky]

Blues have a fantastic roster of talent at the moment, but are only 2 from 4 this year. Despite all the talent they have available, at the moment they're still a long way behind the Crusaders.

@bones I hear an echo from last week. I concur.

[Bones]

Paps was awesome eh. Sam who?

Something to do with the coaches maybe.........

But he should spend more time trying to find a better chinese knock-off Blues jersey to play in though. It's clearly a different colour on the front!

[Yeetyaah]

Fucking stoked. Chiefs did a great job shutting down the Blues' backline.

[broughie]

@bones I have been impressed with him for a while. Cane is looking like an old horse. He is beat up and worn out.

It does if you transfer to a player that is detached or then detaches and runs into the player in front.

I'll have to watch it again - looked like the same maul with one eye
