Hurricanes vs Chiefs

[Machpants]

Too easy, Aumua looking good

[Tim]

Pathetic defence.

From stuff:

Some late injury news for the Chiefsto inform you of too - Brad Weber and Sean Wainui have been ruled out. I saw both sitting out the captain's run in Hamilton yesterday and it adds to a big crocked list at the club. Their absences mean Te Toiroa Tahuriorangi will start at halfback and Jonathan Taumateine comes onto the bench, while Etene Nanai-Seturo comes into the team on the left wing, with Ataata Moeakiola shifting to the right wing

So here's the revised lineups:

**Hurricanes**: Jordie Barrett, Wes Goosen, Matt Proctor, Ngani Laumape, Chase Tiatia, Beauden Barrett, TJ Perenara (c), Reed Prinsep, Ardie Savea, Vaea Fifita, Kane Le'aupepe, James Blackwell, Ben May, Asafo Aumua, Fraser Armstrong. *Reserves*: Ricky Riccitelli, Xavier Numia, Jeffery Toomaga-Allen, Isaia Walker-Leawere, Sam Henwood, Richard Judd, James Marshall, Salesi Rayasi.

**Chiefs**: Solomon Alaimalo, Ataata Moeakiola, Tumua Manu, Anton Lienert-Brown, Etene Nanai-Seturo, Marty McKenzie, Te Toiroa Tahuriorangi, Tyler Ardron, Lachlan Boshier, Luke Jacobson, Mitchell Brown, Michael Allardice (c), Angus Ta'avao, Nathan Harris, Atu Moli. *Reserves*: Liam Polwart, Tevita Mafileo, Sosefo Kautai, Taleni Seu, Jesse Parete, Jonathan Taumateine, Stephen Donald, Alex Nankivell.

Jesus.

I need a stronger drink.

I think I’ll move to scotch, but get the ouzo ready.

[No Quarter]

Jordie having a massive game so far. Good to see.

@Donsteppa in the buildup both changes were mentioned

Aha.

Chiefs have done a good job of clearly anointing DMac’s AB squad successor so far tonight.

[Chris]

Better Chiefs that’s where you should be going straight at the heart of the Hurricanes pack

[Donsteppa]

Chiefs get one back. Not a good night for the blood pressure of the respective defensive coaches with 28 points in 25 minutes

[Machpants]

Pretty shit from canes there, weak tackling, Fafita pointing out he's not the ABs 6

[sparky]

@Donsteppa Ardie Savea went MIA on defence.

You mean Fifita.

[Donsteppa]

Poor clearance from the kickoff, but thankfully we win the lineout against the throw.

[Machpants]

Ben may giving away a stupid penalty, what a surprise

[African Monkey]

@Machpants How is he still starting at this level?

[Chris]

That’s a try

[Chris]

Game on ???

[Machpants]

Knock on

[Tim]

Looked like a try.

[Stargazer]

Clear try; no knock on.

Can't believe the Canes are letting the Chiefs come back into the game. Weak.
