Chiefs v Highlanders

[Machpants]

That was an awful kick

[Bones]

That should happen to every team that tries a dinky chip in the 22 when you have a man advantage.

[Yeetyaah]

Sheesh Lowe nearly got him

[KiwiMurph]

One of the reasons why Bryn Gatland is on his third Super franchise....

[Steven Harris]

@stargazer especially when you see the head start he gave Nareki

[taniwharugby]

both 10's look to be struggling

[Stargazer]

@taniwharugby Yeah, Josh Ioane very disappointing. I wonder who is going to be subbed off later. Him or Hunt? Hunt has been better.

[African Monkey]

@kiwimurph The Chiefs could have put the game to bed even by taking the 3 to start with.

[Winger]

Gatland doing his bit to help his former team out

[Stargazer]

That looked dangerous.

[Gunner]

That’s a card surely?

[Stargazer]

Ah Kuoi should have passed to Lowe ...

[Gunner]

How was that allowed to play on, without even a penalty. Goes against everything we’ve seen regarding a player in the air for the past few seasons...

[Stargazer]

@gunner Yes, although I think I heard him ask the TMO to have a look at it (not sure).

[Steven Harris]

Highlanders would have to be happy this scoreline going into halftime despite the 2 cards

[antipodean]

Can the players not hear the halftime siren over the crowd noise?

[KiwiMurph]

Smart play by Highlanders to work the sin bin clock down after the halftime hooter.

[taniwharugby]

@gunner wasnt it from a pass?

I really struggle if your player passes the ball so shittily and then you have to jump for it to see why that should earn a penalty, or worse, a card.

Very happy. Chiefs easily the better team so team so far, Lowe looking super rugby level so far. Gatland. OK then bad

Shouldn’t matter should it, the guy was well in the air, and the defender ran into him, causing the man in the air to flip dangerously?

I’d need to see it again.
