Chiefs great season from you boys nowhere to the final awesome. Should be proud 3 other teams didn’t make it

Young Williams been awesome

Second penalty probably should have gone against him.

Can’t believe we didn’t go for the corner immediately after the Crusaders went down to 13, might have made a different game of it. But the Crusaders always seem to have another gear too…

Is there any other type?

It definitely makes for a better final when one team doesn't have to fly from Africa or Argie.

All the talk on the breakdown about MacKenzie and the clutch. When it really counted in the final Mounga had the clutch and MacKenzie melted under the pressure.

@anonymous if you can’t see how good Bridge is then you don’t know much about rugby.

Those three missed penalties were huge.

5 titles in 5 years. Take a bow Razor. Take a bow the Crusaders. The best there is in Rugby right now.

Bridge was certainly nothing special tonight.

Yeah, yeah. I know I know nothing about rugby. No need to rub it in

Nah. Don’t think it was the pressure just the wrong night to have a bad one. RMs early miss was probably the worst one of the night.

Anyway 5 in a row maybe 6 if we can get up for trans tasmen nothing more to say keep coming keep coming it has to happen sometime when we lose a championship

Justin Marshal must have shit the bed at the crusaders, he seems to be getting more and more bitter in his commentary on the Crusaders

Nevorian

And well done Chiefs, there was probably only a couple of fine lines in that performance where the tide could have turned, reckon you will go well against the Ozzies

Thanks for the award but I have to hand it back. Kicking pressure kicks in must win games is what DMac did to get us to the final. Pretty silly to claim it was the occasion that got to him.
Had a bad day with the boot. It happens to all kickers. You just hope it’s in a game you still win.

Guess I've been away too long and maybe a Canes fan too long. But I find it really hard to get too excited over a SRA title.

I think the longer I'm out of NZ, the less I care about provincial stuff, and the more I care about the AB's

I think you're muddling franchise and provincial.

I love the provincial stuff just slightly less than the ABs, yet can take and leave the franchise stuff mainly due to the fact my supposed local franchise is anything but.

Anyway, congrats to the Crusaders.
