That's why McKenzie shouldn't be an All Black.

This. For all that he can do on attack, an All Black fullback needs to look a little less like a possum in the headlights...

Awesome prop try by Kepu!
Individual try of the year, Lomu like! Loved it.

Fuck the Waratahs are annoying. They get smashed in to a losing position, and then wake up just late enough to fuck the bonus point.
And then we get another.

Nothing like playing an Aussie team to get back some form....

Some of the interplay the Chiefs do is a joy to watch. Incredible support lines and communication when they are in tune. So many times you think the move has died only for someone else to keep it going and you wonder how on earth they got the ball.
They frustrate me when they back off a game and lose BPs but boy they are entertaining to watch. Put together a highlights package of some of their tries this year someone please. DMac and Lowe form the most exciting to watch combo since Cully and Tana IMO. -
I was happy with a win as the Tahs have always been the Chiefs' bogey team. BUT from the position the Chiefs were in, a BP was thrown away.
The makeshift midfield in the last 20 mins was really bad and let NSW back into the game. TNW was obviously a late withdrawl and it seemed that Alaimalo moved into the centres - it wasn't pretty.

@Bovidae Alaimalo at centre, crikey...he's still finding his feet as a winger/FB at this level.
@taniwharugby The backline formation was all over the place. At one stage it appeared that Cruden was defending on the wing and Stevenson was on the wing nearest where I was sitting. That could only leave Alaimalo in the midfield. Having 2 outside backs on the bench wasn't ideal.
