Good morning rugby fellas & flatties!
Looking forward to the semi’s!
I have strange circumstances today, not at my house this weekend, I am sitting at a pub already at this time of morning… doing the rugby for us!

OK, shuffle up!
Chiefs out on the field!

Hello Perdjie!
Crusaders now also out on the field!
Game ON!
Kick-Off by the Chiefs!
Chiefs with the early possession…
Both sides still a bit tentative and a number of tactical kicks early on, neither side dominating.
Aaron Cruden of the Chiefs with a good break, then he loses possession in contact…
@ grootblousmile:
How’s the weather looking that side, GBS?
Teams still feeling each other out, but the Chiefs looking a bit more adventurous and enterprizing early on.
11 @ BrumbiesBoy:
Nice clear winter’s day!
Aaron Cruden knocks, on about halfway, centre of the field… let’s see what the Saders can do from here!
@ grootblousmile:
Saders attack to the left, then after the tackle and beakdown set runners up 2 out from the breakdown… and they make ground…
10m out…
1m out…
Offside play by the Chiefs… penalty… easy one at goal for the Saders!
Posts it is!
Crusaders 3 / 0 Chiefs
Try Bryn Hall, Crusaders!
Clinical!!
Crusaders 10 / 0 Chiefs
Try Chiefs, Tim Nanai-Williams!
TMO wants to check the grounding…
Was it lost in scoring the try?
No try called!! Lost it!!
That was a call which could have gone either way.
Saders defensive scrum on their own 5m line…
Chiefs penalty, almost in front, midway inside the Saders 22… should be posts… yip!
Crusaders 10 / 3 Chiefs
22m Drop out by the Saders, after a hack through by Damian McKenzie…
Cruden looking very dangerous today with ball in hand…
Good line of running an marvelous break by Anton Lienert-Brown, Chiefs!
