CHCH DROP THEIR RICE AND BEANS AND CATCH THE OVERNIGHT EXPRESS TO MUMBAI

Fucking hell chaps, why don't you pour on the oil and set fire to the ball. That was a performance and a half and I suspect, if I was a betting man, and I had money to bet, that Christchurch are hurting tonight.
I know Trouty had a hard time deciding who was the MVP but that was because no one on the field had a poor performance; and that's a bloody good thing. We played as a team, worked together as a team, made decisions as a team and that was our winning formula.
We had them in the scrums and they didn't like it one little bit. We had them in the midfield, and they didn't like it and we had them in

the wings and they didn't like it. Our one area of concern was clearing the stolen lineout ball, but we didn't lose any points over it, just a few scrum decisions. Which were a part of the overall decisions we didn't quite understand from the ref. But hey ho, where would we be if all refs were as good as steve walsh?

As a forward, I have an inbuilt bias towards them myself, but todays game showed me that we've got a pack worthy of higher grades. Yatesy made his mark, Uli took balls from under their feet, George stormed everywhere, and the back three of Colin, H and Tom made mincemeat of the opposition and Hayden as always, lead from the front and didn't take any bullshit.
The backs had Leyts, Bravo and Lars making mincemeat of the defenders with the usual rough and ready Toad pushing his way through. A.J. and Kelly showed skill in getting the ball out to Nick and Rob and Jonny also joined in pushing the Christchurch defense back and back.

Was a little bit light on the numbers back in the Clubrooms, but those there had a great time.

Big training at CBHS on Thursday in preperation for our Final next Saturday. Let's finish the job we started back in April.
