Highlanders vs Chiefs

[Canerbry]

It's like the Chiefs have loose forwards everywhere when defending on the line. Big tackles behind the line.

Fekitoa's mojo is gone. Celebrity Halfback Aaron Smith looking shaky.

[Tim]

@Bones I'm not seeing it. I doubt the selectors will either.

[Rembrandt]

apart from gifting that try I think Naholo has been looking good. breaking tackles at will

[Tim]

Very dumb play from McKenzie.

[KiwiMurph]

Fucking hell that was a bad decision from Mckenzie. They have the bonus point and a 12 point lead and he quick taps a penalty that is kickable...

[Bones]

@Tim I don't. He's the kind of player they like - accurate but can turn it on. Similar to ALB. ALB, Ioane, Thompson are the future.

[Tim]

@Bones I hope he is, but that midfield hasn't looked sharp to me tonight.

Give me plenty of shit if he makes it!

[Gunner]

Gotta be a yc coming soon for the Chiefs, they're giving away a shit load of penalties in the 22.

[taniwharugby]

bit early to be writing people off though isnt it?

Not to mention how often players have been shite all super season then turned it on in black...

That said, Aaron Smith's stocks took a hit last year, has a big hill to climb

[Mokey]

Bloody hell, Fekitoa. Landers fans must be bald by now.

[Bones]

Fucking hell, Fekitoa never fails to find new levels of stupidity.

[Stargazer]

Hope Buckman is ready to play next week.

I may be having a little bit of a troll tonight. Just a bit through.

[antipodean]

An abyss of talent between BFA and Faddes.

[Stargazer]

This game deserves to be a draw.

[taniwharugby]

@antipodean TBF there is an abyss between BFA and most other 15s (and 14s)

True. Although, in this squad it's a Mariana Trench.

I think the Highlanders midfield has been quite good this half.

[Bones]

Faddes has had a terrible drop in form since the middle of last season.

[Mokey]

What a fuck up by the Landers. They have wasted so many opportunities.

[Tim]

Well, the Chiefs defence is going to be very good again this season.

Have your off night next week eh.
