Just as an aside - whether its Fehi or someone else - Rennie's going to have to have another plan at 11 - Caleb cannot be trusted to string games together

Dear God that DJ sucks

Segner is having a poor game

He's figuratively and literally dropped the ball in the finals.

Aumua is a terror carrying the ball

Those skills in the lineout by Dearns.

Disgusting

Blues have the Taele quintuplets out there. Good spot Nisbo

Loves passing been off tonight

Love and Harkin been a bit poor tonight.

Christie is shit

Moorby has been mud

That was better than I expected. A bit of physicality on defence.

Blues putting in a better shift than the crusaders.

Looks hesitant. Blues D taking his options away

Oh please get up Blues

Blues playing their best ball of the last month. We'll see if Laidlaw's team have learned anything from the past two seasons.

Reckon they could do with bringing Fine on at some stage

Some players not helping their AB chances!?

Haven't read the entire thread, but is everyone comfortable with Roigard faking injury and then gaining an advantage from it? I am not sure how I feel about it.

Thought that was very dicey. Ref should've brought everyone back.

@Crazy-Horse I missed it, but my Chiefs supporting relative sure wasn't happy about it.

Yes

ABs need more shithouse-ery

Shows the old truism that play off games count.

People talked up all year fade under pressure, others step up.

@Crazy-Horse so not gamesmanship?

Canes have to slow down, do the basics. The Blues D is strong, but we don't need to resort to miracle balls, just be patient and break them down

A wise man used to say if you arent cheating you aren't trying hard enough

This match feels a bit like a T1 v T2 game.

Blues scoring a couple of easy tries and Hurricanes making some uncharacteristic errors but still feels like the Canes could run away with it quite easily if they buckle down.

Reminds me of old school England vs AB games

@canefan yea I think we need to play up more, other teams do it to thier advantage, you need to take every chance you get, if you get away with it, who cares?

Christie off for HIA now. And Delaney

Christie seemed to be appealing for something when he came out of a ruck.

McCaw always played on the edge or just over

For all the plaudits Dearns and Delany have won this year, it's been Patty who has dominated of all the locks.

Another Canes attack from a poor Blues kick

Harkin has taken heavy leg strapping off

Perofeta with a coach killer chip kick. Terrible.

I love to bag the guy, but that was a good tackle from BB on Harkin.

Canes front row is so impressive with ball in hand

If that isn't in from the side then I don't know what is

That's better. Felt more relentless
