Damn! Had to pull back there. Otherwise not a bad move.

Well deserved try from Mafi who has played very well tonight.

Def agree with the commentators regarding the Saders 2nd half performance being quite underwhelming bombing a few tries through stupid mistakes. Credit to the Force for their effort, particularly in the second half. I wouldn't mind seeing Sharpie going over for a try & given the kick at goal.

Todd Blackadder will not be happy with the Saders performance here.

Yellow card to the Saders. George had been warned, so fair enough.

Saders struggled earlier in the year when some of their ABs were missing and looks like they still struggle without them. People will say the Force might have won without the TMO decisions but I don't think the Saders would have made those changes at half time if it had been closer.

pathetic 2nd half from the Crusaders, nice to see the Force lift their effort to a great high. If we didn't already know what a difference Dan Carter and Richie McCaw make to a team, we would now.

True, I think any team loses something when their AB's are missing. You can bet your bottom dollar people will blame the TMO & not even bother to look at how dominant the Saders were in the 1st half in addition to the 2-3 tries they bombed. I am angry at my own team but pretty happy for Sharpe that the Force made a real game of it in the second 1/2.

Was going to post something pretty similar to that effect.

Happy with the first 1/2, :mad: at the second.

I guess this means we are underdogs for the finals :p.

The CNZRU Crusaders predictably fondled and caressed by various refs, tmo's and assrefs into the finals. Well done.

No two ways about it Saders went to sleep, I think it more to do with scoreline than losing RM and DC. Pleased for Force though that they gave it a crack in second 40, and Sharpie, well S15 will not be quite the same without him.

I'll put my head where I like.

I think it's been less than coincidental how often the Saders have scraped through this season. Conference systems suit the darlings.

Getting a little nervy heading into the finals aye Scorz, what with a couple of losses...

G' day actc. Nope. Just saying it how I, and a few others, are starting to see it. Not offensive to say so.

No offense taken Scorz. we've had a mixed bag season but have created a lot of scoring opportunities, that sometimes, not all the time you get a bit of luck. Just like the French :)

If it all goes to plan - well the permutations in my noggin that is - a Chiefs vs Saders final could be a possibility

That would be fun, but I think that's probably the semi...?

Steve Walsh can stay at home with his Bryce for that one either way.
