      I still don't get where the stories of Elliott being a dickhead come from. Sure, he can do the odd 'angry face' at times but did you see him just switch out of game mode for a moment to have a chat with the ball boy and make sure he was having a good time?

          On the evidence of this game the Boks should just select the Stormers and build from there.

            That Stormers 14 looks classy

                    Chiefs deserved at least that losing bonus point, but it wasn't meant to be. Great game Stormers, but Chiefs were good, too.

                      I'm not sure who else from the NZ sides plays the Stormers but they will have the benefit of the Chiefs being the guinea pigs. All the more the reason the Chiefs needed to take points from that game.
                      Some good watching though.

                        great game, awesome crowd, pity not to get a bonus point. Cruden will be a real loss next year. Well played D Mac.

                            Not sure about that (except at the end). Chiefs payed the price for some injuries meaning they didn't go into he game well set up with some newbies being thrown out there at times plus TKB having to play 80.
                            The sharpness was certainly getting dull by the end.
                            But that's Super Rugby. Injuries etc at the wrong time can derail you easily. On the other hand sometimes you get lucky and all the shit comes when you are playing the easy sides.

                              James Lowe was massive and my Chiefs MOTM. Big loss losing a guy of his ability next year.

                                @Stargazer Agreed - Felt the Chiefs played well enough to take at least a point, but on the positive side they will be better for the loss and will hopefully take some lessons from that

                                  Anyone else feel that was the quietest game in a while from BBBR? He was a little off and when he is on it brings so much to the Chiefs game in frustrating the opposition.

                                    @Crucial Chiefs looked a bit flustered from the start, going by the tense looks on their faces. They looked a bit nervous about this game.

                                      @Crucial I actually thought Bird was the quiet one of the two locks.

                                        Fair enough. That's why I asked. I noticed Bird more than BBBR but then again I don't tend to watch the grunt work as much as I'm usually watching with a back's eyes and looking at the possibilities away from the ruck

                                          I thought TKB was quieter than normal, didn't get to the breakdown as quick, didn't see many snipes from the base. Not his usual energetic self. I guess you could also say the pack also was a little sub-par.
