SF Crusaders v Chiefs
-
Crusaders have no chance against the mighty, mongrel Chiefs. I hope the Chiefs go easy on this team of no-hopers, safe white boys, underserving ABs, and has-beens. Geez, they are the only team that doesn't even have a stadium!

If there ever was a team the Saders didn’t want to play in a semi, this is it.
They match up well against the way the Saders attack. And now that Blackadder is out and is a key link piece, it will be that little bit harder.
We have been underdogs all season.
-
@ACT-Crusader not only that the crusaders have only defeated 3 teams in chch all season those being the reds, landers & Drua, safe to say underdog status is well deserved🙂
-
@ACT-Crusader Moana Pasifika did us no favours by beating the Brumbies.
I think they're a team we match up well, where the Chiefs almost always give us problems.
Losing Blackadder is big - not quite as crippling as losing Mo'unga, but there with Jordan as next most irreplaceable.

@Chris-B yeah Mo’unga is the most important player for us for a host of reasons - class player, creates so much, the kicking, the drop off to the back up player. He didn’t have the best test season last year but he’s fine tuned a few things this Super campaign that hopefully he can take that next step up.
Blackadder does a lot of little things that don’t show up in the stat sheet but help the team at ruck time and in attack.
The Chiefs play a very good second line attack play with Gatland’s wide passing game. As the old cliche goes, we’ll have to be better than last week

Having to play the Reds twice would lull a team into a false sense of security

@Chris If Jager was selected would he be the most recent foreign AB since Steve Devine? (excluding PI nations)
If you are just talking about foreign born outside of PI then Akira Ioane as he was born in Japan,Or Tyrel Lomax born in Australia
