@nzzp come on man, this is the Blues. Rangi has your boys humming.
Crusaders trying to claim underdog status feels a bit weird. Please stop.
From where we've been, this could be us this season:

Brumbies scrum is okayish
I'm sure they will try to attack via the scrum (they do have 3 Wallaby props) which will allow them to...
it’s their lineout
-
@Old-Samurai-Jack Especially if his kicking is aimless and crap. The Blues will win the game if they win the forward battle. A boring take but true.

On the scrum last week, I thought the Blues tighthead allowed his opposite to get in under him, which created issues for both him and the hooker.
Brumbies scrum is okayish, it’s their lineout and
illegallying on the wrong side that is pretty effectiveSo guys what time is the Brumbies v Chiefs match going to be played next week? Or will one of the underdogs scrape through to spoil the party?

Um correction if they are the 2 teams in finals it will be Chiefs vs Brumbies , not Brumbie v Chiefs
Every good rugby mans knows the home team is first in game description , and as Brumbies the lowest ranking team in top 4 they would play at oppositions ground!
We need accuracy in these posts! -

@MN5 if only former Tah loosie Jack Dempsey was on the Brumbies bench.
Loads of ferners wouldn’t get that
everyone gets that you bellend
be nice, he's introduced sport into a music and movie lover's forum.
I think a lot of ferners are relieved their knowledge of prize fighting from over a hundred years ago isn’t being called out.

@MN5 Nah we just trying not to embarrass your 1920s boxing knowledge for not referencing Will Harrison from the Tahs for the bench instead as that was that was Jack's real name.
Also know as Kid Blackie and the Manassa Mauler. Mike Tyson loved him.

Another old Blues v Brumbies match
This one is from 2012. The Blues had a horror run with injuries (I remember something like 11 locks injured?). So the season was a disaster. This game was about the Brumbies building momentum into the playoffs there wasn't even a question that they wouldn't make it
The Blues injuries had eased slightly by this stage of the season and Piutau was in great form.
The rookies(Luatua, Piutau, and Saili) were all playing well. They were pretty much the only good thing about the season.
Losing our two best players(Kaino and Toeava) early in the season pretty much killed our chances of getting back into the playoffs.

They don’t have a playoff for 3rd and 4th as far as I know

What's the weather forecast looking like for tomorrow?

@Mattasaurus Just a little bit of rain, but might hit at the game.

I just want the Blues to get ahead early and crush any Brumbies hopes...(especially if wet)
The longer they are in the game and close, the more dangerous they will be.

I hope TJ's comments about a big crowd expected are right but I have serious doubts.
wet night in Auckland. will be a big crowd 'for NZ current Super', but not a Big Crowd.
25k would be excellent. 30+ outstanding.
Anyone know the crowd last night? Modern journalism in a nutshell below; hurr durr empty seats on social media. Like, WTAF are the crowd numbers? Instead it's 'here's a few social media posts I found'.
Crowd size disappoints at Super Rugby semi
Fans on social media have raised questions about the crowd size at the Super Rugby semi.
