Saders vs Cheeefs!

Chiefs playing well, but trailing 10-6

 Things slipping away from the Chiefs. Noble effort after the trip to SA, but Crusaders looking too good ATM.

 Well done Saders...Chiefs a bit unlucky to lose by that big a margin, but that's life I guess.

 Awesome game from the Crusaders, defense was the winning of the game.Chiefs were bloody good but just couldn't break our D

 Missed the game but yes Draad the travelling to NZ from here isa massive disadvantage that has handed the unworthy kiwis many a win.
 Will be playing tennis this afternoon but taping the match with the Hurricanes. Go Lions!!!!
Well the Hapless old Crust are in the final and one hopes that is as far a it goes. Having crusadersfan  jumping up and down and frothng at the mouth is an unseemly sight so here is hoping the trophy goes to the very deserving LIONS. Something to cheer up wee cc as well!

 Congrats to the Saders they are a worthy finalist for sure. For the Mighty Chiefs to win was a big ask but by all accounts they played very well. Congrats to them for reaching the semi finals.

Reports that the Saders won with defense are accurate based on the stats, e.g. Saders had 30 percent possession and 33 percent territory. 172 tackles to 57. Amazing.
There have been a couple of articles lately on how defence has now started to dominate the game and this game showed that to be the case.
