Chiefs v Reds
-
Better from the Chiefs.
-
Time to rethink the no 3 strategy Reds
-
Game over, well played Chiefs.
-
Flattering scoreline, but the Chiefs bench the difference in the end.

What could have been if HMP didn't muck up the try

Yup, and even turning down 3 straight after that was stupid imo.
The Reds goalkicking has been poor.

Roe having a far better season than last
Not saying much when his hollywood lead directly to the Reds scoring a try at the death.

Thought the turnaround was the Chiefs swapping nines. Seemed very blinkered tactically and high risk in wrong part of field until into second half. When Jacomb and Roe came on we kicked far better and hit runners with better variety.
The whole bench had great impact for Chiefs thankfully. But really impressed by Dyer and Norris before that.
Canham looks like some player, and Tate, Wilson and McReight are all top notch.
The defence was pretty amazing all game from both teams too. -

Aussies have 5 or 6 very good loosies running around this season. Bodes well for a competitive Lions series.

If Berry was there then I don’t mind that they didn’t go to the replay. The less replays the better in my view.
Both teams playing some high risk stuff in these conditions and given the Reds propensity to go for tries only, I think the score is a fair reflection of the game.
Not sure that was a clear grounding tbf

They ended up checking the grounding, downward pressure in the try area was good enough for me.

Ah Kuoi had a very good game. He is a bit lightweight for the upper level but could be a handy 6 which he used to be a few years ago. His problem is that the Chiefs are stacked with good loose forwards at the moment.
I see that nobody talks about Gideon Wrampling. He hasn't many minutes under his belt but he has impressed in each of his cameos. He looks better than Tupaea who is very average now after a great start. -
