<p>I think the ref bashing on here has increased this year.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Most match threads that involve an NZ team have at least one bloke doing just that. (including the Crusaders threads)</p>

<p>Too many people jump to concluding that any discussion mentioning how the ref went is ref bashing though.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Most of the time no one is blaming the ref for the result just critiquing their performance as we do the players. If they make particularly puzzling or debatable calls then that is good fodder for discussion. </p>
<p>I've lost count of the times I have posted about a ref and within a couple of replies someone is accusing me of blaming the ref for the result when I have done no such thing.</p> -

<p>Prediction: All those changes will hurt the Chiefs momentum. Blues by 1 - 12.</p>

<p>Prediction: This will be a terrible prediction. :)</p>

<p>Chiefs to win at a canter.</p> -
I reckon Tana has finished fine tuning the Blues and is ready to unleash. Like a guitar, when your tuning it it sounds like shit and anyone listening would think you don't know what you're doing. But once it's tuned it's time to rock and roll

<p>Rennie won't be fucking about with a guitar - he's turning up with a marching band. :)</p>

<p>Thumping the Brumbies in Canberra doesn't happen by accident. It is very disturbing!</p> -

Ranger passes right when he should have passed left.
-
<p>reckon Ranger was unlucky not to be awarded a t/o there with how quick he blew the one for Cane moments earlier</p>

Tale of 2 teams. Blues have the ball for ages and get zilch. The Chiefs get one sniff and nearly score
-
Ok actually score.
-
<p>not sure on this one,</p>
<p> </p>
<p>but loving the endeavor from the Blues.. and how good are these Chiefs</p> -
Holy shit can't believe they gave that.
