Chiefs vs Bulls
-
comprehensive!
-
Scrum down, 12 runs in to pat everyone on the back, retallic grabs him and pushes him out "fuck off mate, the men are working"
@mariner4life snap
-
A game of two halves. Bulls will be wondering how many penalties in a row their opposition needs to give away to get a deserved YC.
Chiefs do well again to dig themselves out of a hole.
-
@stargazer he was only only Chief on the field wasn’t he?
-
i'd like to see Aumua at centre to partner ALB, TTT should start, BBBR needs a bit of help though is Bird gone for the season
-
useless buggars, I had them to win by 12

Thought this was the Chiefs/Bulls thread, but now not so sure.

Try time, we won. Yay.
M4L wonders why he supports the Chiefs given he only likes 3 of our players

BBBR, Cane the Destroyer and ALB?

Bloody good win by the chiefs. Looked like they were going to get smoked in the first half. BBBR huge.
Chiefs lucky to not get a yellow in that first half.Bulls lucky not to get a red. That was surely a textbook case for red with how the laws are meant to be now. But once again the card lottery threw up more inconsistency. 100% he will get a ban because the judiciary decide it met the red card threshhold.
They really need to decide whether a player ducking or falling is a mitigating circumstance or not.Going to continue my campaign for DMac to convert to a 9. He is too erratic to be a 10 and the extra time at 15 means he makes stupid decisions like running away from support or taking on a defensive line with no support behind him. His play making and broken play running could be awesome from 9 as a hybrid of TJP and Aaron Smith. Plus he is a midget.

Alaimalo should be in that list right now.
-
BBBR what a playerr - takes 40 mins to play his way in after a late scratching from their previous outing, and takes on the entire Bulls team single-handedly in the 2nd 40...he was defo the difference between the teams

Had some errands to run this morning so only just caught up on replay and have avoided the thread..some thoughts
BBBR confirms suspicions that somehow Phar Laps DNA was implanted in him. Awesome showing.
Weber hasn't lost speed from that leg break.
The culture at the Chiefs hasn't changed much with the coaching change. They are never going to show a perfect game but get by on guts (and the bits of glory that come off).
The lesser squad members are stepping up big time. Never thought I would see Angus T play that well.
Alaimalo showed why you also need power in the 11 jersey at test level. Can't afford to get bundled out that easily in an international. Apart from that, excellent game.
Johnny F is growing in confidence. Thought ALB played a very Conrad type game tonight, which is a big plus in his development.
Wainui is providing good value and is taking his opportunities well.That last try meant a two point table differential between the teams. Good on the Bulls for having a crack, but that will be interesting to see at the end of the round robin. (Bulls lost their BP and handed the Chiefs one after the buzzer)

Edit: have just read back in thread at it's quite funny the difference between reactionary comments during the game and assessment after a win
I don't get the Weber criticisms. I thought his speed to the breakdown and generally good passing created the opportunity to get momentum and stay in the game. TTT made an excellent break and (apart from one shit pass) played well but not to the extent that he demanded selection over Weber. I guess the other thing he offers is less workload for the loosies. Having Weber and DMac in tandem creates a lot of need to clean up. That's a bonus in the last 20 as the forwards tire, just as the ABs would use TKB the same way.

Credit to the chiefs on there win,but really and truthfully to infringe that many times and not receive a yellow card for collapsing a maul must be some sort of record,personally the key moment for me was when the score was 28-21 the Bulls hard on attack and the maul gets pulled down.
Should have been a yellow card and we have all seen the impact of yellow cards on games thus far.
However I will give a huge ups to Brodie Retallick,he was massive for the Chiefs this evening.
