Bugger. Well-worked Sadists try. Missed conversion 5-0.
DMac did his best but he was noever going to stop Sanders

Evening all.
Is this place more active than the other?
To be honest, no.
But is this where the cool kids are these days?
Good start by the Crusaders. Looking a bit ominous already.

Please don’t be injured Lachlan Boshier. You carry the weight of the
Blues’ season on your shoulders.

They are playing much better than last week -- more disciplined

10-0
Saders just moving the ball too quickly for the defence to get into position

Boshier wins a penalty and the shit Chiefs lineout gives the ball back to the Crusaders. That’s where that try was born.

A Chiefs win here keeps the Blues in contention to win the tournament. Not looking good, though.

The Blues need the Crusaders to lose. He thinks Boshier is key to the Chiefs winning. Probably not wrong.
I think the Chiefs will need a Crusaders Red Card to be much chance in this game I am afraid.

Chiefs running round in circles when the y DO have the ball. Crusders have the edge in almost every facet so far.

I think that went forward and must have touched another player. A bit fortunate.

I hope this does not jinx it but the Crusaders seem to have fixed the glitches in the lineout.

I thought the Crusaders were about to get on the gallop earlier on there. Chiefs have done well to hang in there.

Exciting game. Really, the Chiefs get credit for fighting back, and also need to wear the blame for crucial mistakes.

Harsh call. He was clearly trying to get that ball. It just dipped a bit lower than was anticipated.

Yeah, really enjoying it. Harsh on Stevenson. Hope it isn't the difference in the end.

Were those half time commentators on drugs? Looking at them I’m beginning to wonder if there is any coke left in NZ.
