four rounds ago, beat the Blues, had a bye, beat the Chiefs, beat the Canes.
No Bowden Barrett here, so it's on Perafeta as far as the Blues go.
If there's a weakness, and I'm not saying it's a weakness, but a rearranged Canterbury slash Crusaders front row with George Bauer then coming into the tight end, and so they're missing a couple of players there.
Home advantage, full house, a hell of a place to go.
They've never lost a playoff game in Christchurch.
You stack all of that up.
But this is the one game
that I just still feel the Blues have a performance in them.
I don't know.
I've got no basis at all to suggest that, given their recent form.
This will be the biggest match he's ever played on if he runs on the grass.
Yeah, look, I just think it's about...
silencing that crowd and making the crowd nervous.
And if the crowd get nervous, maybe the Crusaders might get nervous as well.
Having said that, I won't be surprised at all if the Crusaders blast this game because of their recent form, recent results.
But I just got to know, I've got an inkling that we've seen upsets every single round.
We've seen results that none of us have expected or predicted every single round.
And I just wonder whether or not this is the game.
And the Blues season turns around.
Yeah.
