is going to win the Super 15 series again. They were comprehensively outplayed by the Crusaders. I thought the Crusaders would beat the Chiefs - but I do not think anybody would predict a win by 21 points.

Yessss! I had Kieran Read in my FoxSport and testrugby teams!

 

I decided at the last minute to keep Cruden in my Foxsport team rather than Carter and for the second week in a row I'm wishing I'd stuck with Dan Carter.

 

The Crusaders have a nasty habit of hitting their best form at the business end of the competition and they'll be the side that no-one wants to face in the playoffs or the semis.

Yup, I suspect few would have picked that scoreline but this years finals series looks set to be a real nail biter.  All 3 countries have their legacy teams represented. The Bulls, Brumbies and Crusaders all jockeying for the most advantageous positions on the log.  After the Chiefs loss tonight I'd have to say that the Bulls are in the drivers seat for now with a home semi on offer if they win their next games.  No mean feat by any stretch of the imagination but I wouldn't put it past them.  

 Hopefully the Chiefs can get their home semi aspirations back on track.  I have more faith in the 'Saders ability to win away from home than I do with the Chiefs.  p>

Despite the wordless wonder with which Mo replies, I must say that was an awesome display by the Crusaders.  The Chiefs did not play bad but were put under terrible pressure by the Crusadres forcing mistakes which the Crusaders quickly used.

What a game.  The Trophy will probably in the end go to NZ and if things pan out for them and the can make the playoffs the Crusaders seem to be the tam to beat.

 I came on the thread hoping to find an erudite expanation from oaks like brycy, sitting bull, poooie etc as to why the chiefs got so badly thumped. But maybe after a weeks recovery time?

As for the crusties well nz teams often look good against other nz sides but dont let that get you believing the crusties will win the Super 15.
