Blues v Chiefs
-
Fair play Chiefs, could this be your year?
-
Huge amount of penalties from the Blues tonight - BB just like he does to the ABs - kicks possession away far too much.
Chiefs played well fwds were very good and I thought Tupaea played particularly well - - but game changed with Ratima to 9 and Dmac to 10 imo
-
13-6 penalty count the difference. Too much easy possession

Edit penalty count was actually 15-6

Blues really miss Akira and Sotutu.
Both overrated according to the south islanders.
or maybe they (secretly) rated them so highly they connived to get rid of them??

This season could be a good test of Vern's coaching agility, can he mould the replacements into his style or will he have to change his tactics?

I'd take it as one. I like my captains constantly in the ear of the ref, but ensuring they don't put the ref offside. A delicate balance.
He also had a very good game.

Yeah they are narcissistic like that down there.

No need when Razor's busy selecting the Cantablacks anyway.

Carter could be in line for a special season. He looked very good on the wing.
The utility value of him and Fineanganofo would make them brilliant bench men at a higher level if they carry on as they started....

Not read thread... but Telea did score. Bad decision, but good result ...
Looked to me like his arm was in touch before the ball was grounded. It was tight, but no try was the right decision.
Ok. Will have another look.

I thought it was the right decision. Decided the game in the end.

Yep, I thought it was quite clear he was in touch.
