Tony Johnson

It's brilliant when a plan comes together, isn't it?

I think he was clean.

It was flawless in its execution.

Yeah, that's what impressed me the most.

Because that's a training ground move.

And you've practiced that however many times.

But to pull it off in the game at that time.

I love first-phase tries where somebody's got to move off a scrum or a line-out because, again, it's clever as hell is what it is.

Look, there are a couple of other bits during the game.

The backward passes, the flip passes.

There was a line-out move there where it was called back because the feet were in touch.

A quick line-out, which was really clever as well.

There was a bit of dumb play almost at the end where they went for a penalty kick and they could have got caught with the pants down as it was run back.

And so it kind of had everything, that game, to me.

And in the end, the home crowd wins, which makes the stadium jump even higher and louder, doesn't it, at the end?

And it's put the Crusaders in a position now, Tony, where we've been talking about this for weeks here and me.

Everyone's looking over the shoulder thinking, are they there?

Yeah, good call, Jeff.

Not the 34 maybe, but the 44.

Who won the loose forward battle between these two teams, Chiefs and Crusaders?
