Incredible levels of whinging from complacent chiefs coach, captains and fans. Thought that going in first seed and having a great squad on paper meant it was their time and the saders would politely step aside and clap them to the title. Bit naive. And utterly classless this fan reaction. Seen people on other sites wishing violence on the officials, disgusting. The fact mcmillan doesn’t watch games he loses is a massive red flag for a young coach who isn’t able to separate his emotions from his teams performance. Understandable, as it hurts, but he’s got to move through that.

He gifted them the semi lol.

'Gutted': Five-minute horror period ends Brumbies' Super Rugby hopes as Chiefs set up final with Crusaders

Wrights lazy forward pass with 5 to go 6 down to gift possession away is probably the most casual and stupid display of lack of focus I’ve seen.

Er what are you talking about here saying taylor is ahead of samisoni? Really? Taylor has improved from being rubbish early in the season but he’s nowhere near samisoni. And that your 3 hooker picks are better than the others at open field running and scoring tries when asafo aumua is the next knocking at the door? Do you even watch these games and players.

No right to that attacking platform…… why not? They were on an attack and pressured the brumbies into a pen.

Brums are a better team on paper… says who? They have home adv for them and that’s important, but that’s all a neutral pundit would give them.

ANALYSIS: The 'mindless' tactic Brumbies must ditch to beat Hurricanes in a quarterfinal clash of styles

Why would the aussie teams keep going down? Farcical assumption. The point is that once at 4 teams all 4 would be stronger. No reason why they would continue to get thrashed, they are close enough to competitive already. Silly article

Three strikes and we should be out: Why it's time for Australia to quit Super Rugby Pacific

Only time before Taniela jumps to some big bucks in France, a bit surprised he’s stayed as long as he has already. Seems to have made his initial decisions on pro rugby based on money, but good on him the guy is a massive talent, would watch him wherever he wants to play

The chip kick youre talking about is a quick drop to the foot. The one i can remember, the tackle was already committed before the kick. Didn’t see any late tackles on other kicks. So if you’re going to kick it away like that, you have to have team mates to chase as you’ll still be tackled. Not too complicated

I’m sorry are you suggesting its not aussie but their opposition who are trying to milk penalties? Gshahahahahsjaha

“Masterclass”

Is Tate fit? I assumed he was injured, he’s way better than white and gordon why’s he not been out there! Crazy

REACTION: Rennie and Wallabies 'crumble' in Auckland again as All Blacks put on a 'masterclass'

Super surprised by petaia. He had dangerous touches and seemed the good the first couple times he played, although he was so lean back then. He’s filled out properly now but got skinned so easily by Jordan for that try, then dropped the ball cold twice in a row… expected way more. Guess he had one of those games

Both heads were down and they donked sides of their heads as they came together in the ruck, it was hardly anything. Headcuts bleed a lot, even minor ones. Reaching a bit mate

Barrett said last week he knows he has got in richies way in the past and has to stick to his role. Looks like he’s doing that and leaving the play making to mounga and it worked way better tonight

Mehrts is fine. Sbw is only there because he’s the biggest rugby celeb around, don’t expect algebra from him he’s just some friendly window dressing, it’s show biz

REACTION: Rennie and Wallabies 'crumble' in Auckland again as All Blacks put on a 'masterclass'

Could be because every scrum the wallabies either went backward at a rate of knots or prop got folded like a concertina? Maybe unrelated

Someones could start a profile called “Tupaeas other knee” now. Hows your handle feeling? Lol.

Bernard Foley and a brief history of time wasting in rugby

So….. boil this article down, sore loser but feeling like he’s justified. Well done

Bernard Foley and a brief history of time wasting in rugby

So you would happily yell an insult at some one across the street and walk on, no probs mate its just one insult, don’t be thin skinned? Nah didn’t think so

WILL GENIA: 'Looked intentional' - Wallabies can't justify Swain stance, Foley shows he belongs in RWC chat

Oh every nz has maori heritage? That’s new. Clown

Intriguing call ups for Swain and Banks, struggling Suli's chance to prove RWC worth, as Australia A named

At least they are changing it up by putting a wing in there instead of a fb.

Some “learnings” im sure.

In all honesty though, how much does a players preference play into it?

Squeezing the Ian Foster DNA out of these All Blacks is going to take some time

Totally agree with you on Clarke. They give him chance after chance and he makes breaks but his connections to support after the break is made is utterly horrific. He falls over every time he tries to step once he’s in space even. Let Sevu have a crack

Would be great if foley had just owned what happened. Pretty poor everything hes said instead

ANALYSIS: How Foley really handled recall, what it says about Aus rugby, and teammate he owes big time

Haha! Great article. Very interesting. Great to see a grownup take on it and some stats

Time is on my side: Breaking down the clock for both the weekend's matches

Of course he heard the ref. Check the aerial footage, he was 2 meters away. Makes all these silly arguments look as ridiculous as they are. Watch that footage then come back here
