Clayton McMillan: Chiefs Coach ahead of the Super Rugby Final against the Blues

The Mike Hosking Breakfast - A podcast by Newstalk ZB - Thursdays

It all comes down to Saturday, as the Chiefs face the Blues in the Super Rugby Final.  They’re playing before a sold-out Eden Park, kick-off at 7:05pm.  Chiefs Coach Clayton McMillan told Mike Hosking that while they lost their way a bit in the middle of the season, it was a reflection of them acknowledging some shifts they needed to make in their game, and then they got it going right at the end of the season.  He said that the Blues are probably the form team in terms of consistency, very direct, very powerful, and they need to go up there confident in their own ability and give it everything they’ve got.  McMillan said playing the Blues a few weeks ago gave them a feel for where they could make some shifts in the game, and they took on some good lessons from the loss.  “We’ll put them under just as much pressure as they’ll put us under.”  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
