    Jacomb shows some nice touches at times but the hype is way over the top.

    You seen the weather? Bit harsh all things considered. He’s been ok imo, although that early missed goal kick has probably thrown him off a bit.

    More the hype about him being the next AB 10 etc. I don't see it.

    I won't be too harsh on him, Lautoka is a graveyard for touring sides.

    Graveyard is pushing it

    Chiefs won there in 2022

    Blues won there in 2023

    And no one since.

      "Learnings" for Jacomb. He needed to keep the ball in front of the forwards. Carter had a shocker with his hands.

        Important BP for the Chiefs there.

        It's always tough going to Fiji, and recovering the next week, where most sides lose the following week after a Fiji road trip. For the Chiefs, they have the Blues next week, where I would back them to win on current form, however, do the Blues have a real chance now after this brutal game that the Chiefs have had?

              Tupaea was a flop in Fantasy this week, thankfully most people selected him. I changed Umaga-Jensen for Tupaea last minute. Damnit.

                I've got both, saw the weather forecast as dropped two chiefs, should've dropped them all

                  Chiefs lineouts coach has a lot to answer for. Why overcomplicate every throw. That and poor godlkicking cost chiefs. Great wake up call though. Well done Drua

                      Got to say and I’m not defending the Chiefs performance but inconsistency from the official has been an issue imo especially in and around no clear release

                      Murphy was all over the place with ruck entry and awarding penalties.

                            Not sure the Chiefs played the conditions well, congratulations to the Drua.

                                @ploughboy I think the Chiefs are going to be the best of the NZ teams this year by some daylight, but there's the potential for a side outside NZ to pip them to the title.

                                  It was noticeable from about the 60min that the Chiefs were sucking in the big ones... I'd imagine the air would've been heavy in the humidity .. not an easy place to win

                                  Other comment - Home ground advantage is basically +10 Fiji
