Hurricanes v Chiefs

[antipodean]

FFS Commentator. Beauden doesn't need control.

[Bones]

Amazing effort by BBR to force Barrett to go to the toe.

[Donsteppa]

Dumb play from both Chiefs wingers, little situational awareness.

[KiwiMurph]

Commentators lol. Clear try.

[gt12]

17-6 and it might slip away for the chiefs here.

Correct, however if both players had a hand with downward pressure (don't know if they did), then if one is deemed to be in possession they take precedence. Control of the ball indicates possession.

[Stargazer]

Awesome team try for the Canes!

[dingo]

Thats just a complete tin arse try and yet what skills.

[Bones]

Good one Nisbo, Laumape takes it up, gets tackled, next play, Laumape is out on the right you reckon? Looked distinctly like Proctor.

[Stargazer]

@bones The also said McKenzie's tackle was great. It wasn't. It was high (right arm above the shoulder), but not spotted.

[Bones]

And still going on about it, muppet!

[No Quarter]

Laumape has to be odds on for the AB 12 jumper at this stage. He's playing accurate footy and he's a fucking wrecking ball.

Prescient.

[Bones]

Ngatai you eedjit.

[No Quarter]

Alaimalo was unmarked and he kicks... try butchered.

[Donsteppa]

Chiefs having a great game of "don't kick it, pass it!", "don't pass it, kick it!" "don't hungus it, pass it!

[Bones]

Aso getting held back, right in front of the AR. No call.

[antipodean]

"Too much off the ball, nothing that we've seen"

Wut?

It will be interesting to see where they'll go with the midfield. Crotty will be in if fit; the question is in which position and who will be the other midfielder.

[Bones]

@stargazer certainly wouldn't be averse to seeing Laumape/Crotty. Thompson into 13 when Crotty gets injured.
