The Blues had a good first half.
What strategies do the Chiefs use to dominate their matches?
Jeez, those canes in the second though.
I did some heavy manifesting in the pre-show, and I thought it was coming to fruition. But you just knew, even though the Blues were close, nothing was sticking. There was a lot of forced passes and a lot of errors from the Hurricanes in that first half. And they went ahead 19-14, you were like, oh, they're going to start sticking at some stage. And you knew that there was sort of a barrage of points coming, which... you know, wasn't helped by the HA. I think, you know, the biggest issue, you know, having to manage a squad, you know how hard it is. And because of the better impact, the ability to have better impact off the bench, the Canes just ran the blues down. But honestly, man, our Super Rugby clubs are doing a fantastic job at the halftime experience, the pre-show entertainment, post-show.
What are the key match-ups to watch in the Super Rugby Final?
It's a really exciting time for this club.
It's good, I was down at the game in Hamilton and they really put on a show and you could feel it. I was picking 1-12, the moment I walked into that stadium, I switched it up. I was like, this is 13 plus boys. Brenna, I'm sorry, but this is 13 plus to the Chiefs. Here we go.
If you go on the other side in the first half, when you're looking at the Chiefs' Vista Crusaders, what an absolute 30-40 minutes from the Chiefs. What was it, 45-7 at halftime and... Look, they're just skinning the cat in a lot of ways, right? Like, I think Damien McKenzie, his influences in the first six tries, their ability to be able to attack and score points when the opportunities came.
How crucial is the set piece in determining the game's outcome?
And I think, you know, they kind of made the Crusaders make uncharacteristic mistakes in that first half, and they pounced on them. So you look at the Chiefs, the first half, with how they played, the Hurricanes in the second half, it was a battle of two halves, I guess, in those first two semifinal matches.
