Crusaders v Chiefs

KiwiMurph

Hotham has some real wheels

Donsteppa

Now sleepy D from the Chiefs down that side of the park...

Landers92

LCF could have ran a few more steps and tackled him normally there. Be regretting that when he sees the replay

good start from both teams good watching

Yeetyaah

2 defenders at the lineout anyway right? Not really overly sure of that law

Bones

Sign me up for Hutchinson. Making every post a winner.

Yeetyaah

Good shit Hutchie

Donsteppa

Took the officials a while to spot that one. Especially the "Assistant Referee"

ffs just get on with it

KiwiMurph

Doleman you fucking clown

Just rule it out

Landers92

Sounds like he wanted to do the in goal replay so the crowd could see it. They weren’t seeing what we were seeing on TV. Never heard a ref do that before

TJ is clearly signed up, I think he'd mentioned he's from Chch at least 3 times so far.

Donsteppa

Cracking start to the game.

Luke (side entry ) Jacobson

Landers92

Nice work from Newell to trap him in the ruck there. The dark arts

Is it me or does Kyren just look a more well rounded player this year? He was an absolute turnstile in defence last year but he looks markedly better this year.

It's not just you. As the season has gone on he has gotten better and better. A function of going from a cellar dweller team to a top team

He's gone from being built like Code Vai to being built like Macca Springer

Donsteppa

Fair warning...

How long is Hutchinson signed for? He gonna be the next Brodie/ALB/DMac?

shocking reffing

KiwiMurph

Leicester is very useful around the fringes.

Donsteppa

Well rewarded for a relentless few minutes of play.

Still getting used to Lester in 7.

Yeetyaah

Doleman allowing the Crusaders 30 seconds to clear the ball after a maul collapse what a guy

2 years mate. End of 2027

Donsteppa

Have we had the ball in the last five minutes...

KiwiMurph

Dumb from Fihaki - did the hard work

I was stunned he didn't call the Chiefs for collapsing it

Landers92

Good first 20. I would give the chiefs the upper hand with players the have on the bench. They keep this close and they are a real chance

Yeetyaah

Give Hutchie a 10 year deal

KiwiMurph

Hutchison keeps playing like this he's putting himself in the AB frame I dont care how many games he has played

David Havilli is a massive weakness in this Crusaders team

Tim

Sititi can carry it a bit too upright in close.

Tim

Shocking kick from Havili.

He's a bum and the Breakdown crew always hype him up and I have no idea why

Justin Marshall usually giving him the biggest pats on the back

@Landers92 I would love to see AI replace these clowns in the commentary box.

KiwiMurph

Excellent defensive effort by little LCF
