it is astounding to me that this is a dead rubber for the Chiefs
That Blues squad is absolutely stacked. They have a supposed good coach, and a respected assistant. The Chiefs lost every game last season, and the first two this season.
And yet, here we are. Chiefs are resting players for the final.
Crusaders agent embedded as Blues coach is playing the long game...
Where have I heard that before
Not serious. That would have to be a very dedicated agent and I don't think Rangi is that good an actor..
Never trust those Cantabs. Agent Deans did a great job for them as did Agent Hammett. Agent Gibson started work on the Tahs and Agent Penney finished it.
This just adds to the mystery of the Crusaders franchise, if it isn't the players, the coaches, or the grounds (as shown by earthquakes)..it must be the... halftime oranges?
It's the refs favouring them. I thought that was obvious.
-
aha, they wear red and black tradie undies. Mystery sorted.

It's a deal on Gatland. WE might keep our 2 and 15 for a while longer though thanks.

And heavy favourites for that final too. Did you hear we are missing Moody and Goodhue.

@act-crusader don't you dare try and claim underdog status.

10 time champs playing at home (where they have never lost a playoff game) try to claim underdog status. Gotta love the NZ mentality.

I thought the queue at the local TAB was a lot longer and happier looking than usual.

So have they finally spotted Ruru's limitations?
nah, they just forgot last week was Christies turn to start.
Was that 2 starts back to back for Ruru?

Miracles have happened! Ruru gone and Sullivan there!
Excited to see how Sullivan goes. Good match to debut in, nothing really on the line

Was class personified for Auckland last year. A proper 15 not some 10 shoehorned into there

Am I missing a joke? Sullivan is a ten that can play fullback.

I'm pretty sure that Sullivan played at 10 for Napier Boys before he was poached. Not sure what position he played up in Auckland school rugby
-
@stockcar86 played 10 his whole life back to primary school
-
Ok I din know that. I thought he had always played 15

Players not considered with injury: Patrick Tuipulotu (neck), Jacob Pierce (leg), James Lay (foot). Season-ending: Jone Macalai, Dillon Hunt.
