@kidcalder he’s an incredible player at SR level. But he also has the habit of completely shitting the bed. Is he the standard of a guy that’s been in the ABs squad since 2016 with 70 odd caps? I personally dont think so. Putting him on with 20 to go is the best use of his skills and minimises his pitfalls

Who are these fullbacks?
Hutchinson (if fit)
Can run. The rest?
Harkin but he's another 10/15.

Big, seemingly accurate boot, solid defence, great eyes up player that creates opportunity and links well.
@jimmyb said in SF: Chiefs v Crusaders:
@Bones Reiko as in the Leinster winger?
Does he play outside Rieko? That sounds confusing
Blown off the park in the first half - one of those games where not much went right.
Well done Chiefs.
At this point I'm not too fussed who out of Love or McKenzie is at 10 and who is on the bench (or at fullback). As long as Barrett isn't in the 23.
@Yeetyaah said in SF: Chiefs v Crusaders:
How shit was the Crusaders midfield btw. Havili and Ennor looked like 12th grade players.
Hopefully GH didn't think they looked like ABs...
I was confident about this game. Undefeated against the Crusaders in home SFs. 
And a fitting performance for DMac's 150th game.
That firsthalf was just fucking crazy.
For the Saders at least they get to play off for 3rd ...
@antipodean said in SF: Chiefs v Crusaders:
LoL. According to TJ Havili has been in excellent form the mast few weeks
He kinda has
@mariner4life said in SF: Chiefs v Crusaders:
Lol this is a shocker of a second half.
Always going to be. Not at all surprised at the more turgid 2nd half.
But by fuck that first half was fun
@mariner4life said in SF: Chiefs v Crusaders:
@antipodean Dmac showed a passing and instinct game no one else in NZ has.
I would start him at 15.
Agreed. His ability to spot an opportunity given more time and space is unequalled in New Zealand. But the 10 jersey has to be Love's.

That game against the Hurricanes (his 150th) seems to have been forgotten.

@game_film said in SF: Chiefs v Crusaders:
Weighed. Measured. Found wanting.
Who?
I think it was Dmac
@Bones said in SF: Chiefs v Crusaders:
How average has Jacomb looked this season
This. Was a fanboi, but he's trended downwards
@Landers92 said in SF: Chiefs v Crusaders:
Is Codie Taylor playing
in the loosies?
You need to stop there
@mariner4life said in SF: Chiefs v Crusaders:

Would upvote, but he's my starting 10.
@antipodean I hope Love has a solid end to Super to prove this- not saying he won't but would blow up in lot of faces if he shits the bed....
We need him and Dmac to fire so the BB train is parked

Played ok tonight for me
Didn't expect a win tonight, but that was embarrassing. Reminded me of the all blacks playing the books last year.
I'd love the chiefs to smash the canes next week.

The alternative is the others just need to play better than him, especially in the big games.

Yeah I struggled with that comment. I don't really want to see him get hurt. I just wish the selectors would do the right thing and leave him out
@Canes4life said in SF: Chiefs v Crusaders:
Sheesh Carter scrambles well
There is a 13 in him for sure.
@antipodean Not the Chiefs.
@Canerbry said in SF: Chiefs v Crusaders:
This is the most excited I've ever seen thesilverfern.
You must admit though, it was a disgraceful display from your lot down Phillipstown way. A lot of past players and coaches who have bled red and black through and through would have been sick to the stomach after that first half effort.
