    Stevenson as 10/15.

    Rona will provide midfield cover, and Narawa could be used on the wing. With a 6:2 bench using Carter as the backup halfback would have made sense. But there isn't another 1st 5 available with injuries to DMac, Trask and Poihipi.

      Seems a bit weird to have 3 halfback options then. Bit of a problem if 2 injured backs. Ratima to wing I guess. Think Gideon Wrampling should be on bench or Oscar Koller. Bit short on kicker options behind Jacomb also. Stevenson presumably.

        @ARHS said in Drua v Chiefs:

        I think you could get away with using Carter as the backup halfback if he was on the bench. A little more complicated as a starter if an early injury occurs.

        Gideon Wrampling is unlucky to not be involved. Ironically, his little brother might have taken his spot in the 23. Speaking of Malachi, he did play on the wing as a reserve for Waikato against Auckland in 2023 when Filipo went for a 7:1 bench.

          Just to clarify this, you're telling me if I put Jacomb in my fantasy team I probably don't have to worry about him getting subbed off after 50 minutes?

            No one watching this one? Fuck knows how Drua weren't called for sealing off there.

              The broadcast is shocking, refreshing horribly, score reading wrong and don't get me started on the Aussie commentators

                    "They don't mean to knock on". Thanks commentator, for a while there I thought it was deliberate.

                        ALB offside. There's something we've never heard before.

                                I don't really agree with the comms that the Drua were right to take the 3. It's pretty difficult to get out of your 22 in these conditions so kicking to the corner is really smart play.

                                  Pretty dumb from the Drua trying to move ball inside their red zone from a lineout turnover in these conditions

                                        Chiefs defending really well. Great 50/22 from Jacomb.
