2013 Super Rugby Semi Finals - Chiefs vs Crusaders

[Bardon]

Cruden finally blots his copybook for this game, could be a crucial error.

 

[No4918]

Bit of panic from Carter.

 

[Hugh Jarse]

Last roll of the dice for the Whitelocks and their Friends with three minutes to go, and one point behind on the scoreboard.

Someone strip the clothes off Guildford! Apparently he runs faster that way!

Can't handle these last 3min

 

[Bardon]

Yeah he really snatched at that drop goal attempt.

 

[Hugh Jarse]

Final in Hamilton.

 

[Bardon]

Saders continuity hasn't been great today. It's hard to see them holding on to the ball long enough to work themselves into a winning position.

The Tron beckons

 

[Richo]

Wow. What a game. True grit from the Chiefs to hold on and win that one. Poor execution by the Crusaders in the last 5 minutes.

 

[Hairy Test Eagle]

What a game! Chiefs defence was the difference.

 

[Bardon]

Excellent 2nd half and great game overall. Really enjoyed it. Think it's the right result as the Chiefs really work hard to hold on there at the end. Saders looked a little toothless in attack, baring individual breaks, especially compared to last week.

 

[AngrySeahorse]

Congrats Chiefs, played very well. Defence was especially good.

We looked good with the ball at times but it was not quite what we brought to the Reds game.

Can't see the Bulls or the Brumbies beating the Chiefs. I can only hope that whatever team makes it through that they put up a fight worthy of a final.

 

[Dan54]

Well that is what I call a class semi final!! Wasn't worried who won, but have to admit I glad final in NZ as don't probably need too many ABs having to travel to SA!!

 

[SaderCheif]

What a game! Full credit to the Chiefs. What a turn around from a few weeks ago. Better team won. Hard not to tip the chiefs at home next week.

 

[Mr Doug]

People, none of you have mentioned a score. I know it's finals football, but surely Mr Doug can look to this forum for a bloody score! Or was it a dead-heat, to be replayed on Wednesday?!!

 

[Bardon]

20-19 Chiefs.

 

[Dan54]

20-19 Mr Doug!!

 

[aeneas]

For what its worth. The home side in NZ has won all 15 matches in super rugby semi's.

I believe I had this!

 

[Mr Doug]

20-19 Mr Doug!!

Thank you Dan54, and Bardon too. Just came on-line, so I guess it was an "intense" last 20!

 

[Hugh Jarse]

I can back from watching live footy at 1/2 time.

Woulda given updates if I knew foxtel challenged Gaggerlanders were on line.
