<p>a sold out Buenos Aries stadium to greet the Chiefs, I reckon they are going down, this will be a new experience for many of the lads, and with the struggles they have had up front....</p>

<p>Should be entertaining</p>

[JK]

Yep this will be a massive ask for the chiefs to get up.<br><br>
Picking jaguares on this one too

[Donsteppa]

<p>I went Jaguares 1- 8 , but am wondering if I was too conservative..</p>

[taniwharugby]

<p><u>Jaguares $1.70 Chiefs $2.05</u> Head to Head</p>

[SammyC]

<p>I'm loading up on that $1.70. Generous odds I reckon</p>

[Bovidae]

<p>A tough road trip from NZ to SA to Argentina that only the Highlanders also have to make.  Velez Sarsfield will be a cauldron for their historic first home game.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The Chiefs backs have plenty of points in them but the big question is whether an understrength forward pack can withstand the pressure from the Jaguares scrum and maul.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Pollock is the ref.</p>

[Unco]

<p>No-one else watching? Chiefs just drew the score level 8-8 through a fantastic McNicol diving try in the corner.</p>

[Unco]

<p>Chiefs take the lead off a stolen lineout. Chiefs 13-8</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Fuck McKenzie's improving his game management, some very smart kicking from him.</p>

<p>jeez the Jaguares have adapted to the style of game needed to win super rugby matches pretty well, they are an entertaining team to watch.</p>

[African Monkey]

<p>Feel a bit for the Chiefs missing almost their whole tight 5. Still, they're hanging in there.</p>

[wildman]

The Jaguares need to beat what is a poor and far travelled Chiefs team at home to prove they really are a competition threat <br><br><br>

<p>Doesn't look that poor to me, they're playing a hell of a lot better than I was expecting them to given how many air points they've earned over the last couple of weeks.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Cruden's not a half bad halfback.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Chiefs 16-14 after 47 minutes.</p>

[Billy Tell]

Cruden hands over kicking to Mckenzie. Lima smiles in Dunedin.

[Unco]

<p>Lowe into the corner off a Lienert-Brown break. Great team try. Converted.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Chiefs 23-14</p>

[Hooroo]

So much for being sold out. Where do they get their information? Man we can't scrum for toffee but boy oh boy can we play rugby!!

[Unco]

<p>Entire new front row is on and the Chiefs scrum dominates. Crazy.</p>

[booboo]

Yamashita ... why?

[booboo]

DMac misses the pen

[Hooroo]

It's a shame some of the handling skills is a touch rusty. But at the pace the Chiefs are playing, it is hardly a surprise. I'm a little surprised at our ability to have so much possession in this second half

[Hooroo]

Heh heh. They will keep showing that hit until they get penalised.

[booboo]

Cane's cleanout a bit high.<br><br>
No penalty.

[Hooroo]

Lowe would have to concede the most turn overs as a back? Just goes to jello in the contaxt

[taniwharugby]

I think i need to stop betting on rugby, given how shit my tipping is...

[booboo]

Grandstand finish. 3 points in it

[booboo]

Soory 2 points

[Unco]

<p>Jags finally get their second try and convert.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Chiefs 23-21</p>

[booboo]

Great try Jagulars!

[booboo]

Chiefs have 6 mins to get one back<br><br>
26 23 Jags<br><br>
Kick to come

[Unco]

<p>What the fuck. Some great offloading by the Jaguares but ratshit defence by the Chiefs, especially McKenzie at the end there.</p>

[booboo]

No conversion.<br><br>
3 point game

[Unco]

<p>Not converted. Jags 26-23</p>

[taniwharugby]

How many mins?

[Unco]

<p>5 mins</p>

[booboo]

4 mins left after the scrum ...<br><br>
Chiefs non finishing of their dominance after half time haunting them
