Highlanders vs Chiefs

[antipodean]

What beautiful hands from Aaron Smith.

@gt12 Nah I think Jacobson is putting his hand up belatedly for the bolter 6 jersey. Gonna love to see a scrap between him and Big Red.

[Stargazer]

@gt12 said in Highlanders vs Chiefs:

Fuck, Smith.

I’m a bit worried seeing L Whitelock playing at 6.

Requested? I fucking hope not.

I read somewhere last week that they had moved Luke Whitelock to 6 to make room at 8 for Dixon, who has been playing very well the last few games. So I don't know whether the ABs selectors have had anything to do with that move.

Bloody knees. Who needs 'em

[Chris]

Show pony on Chiefs are fucked

[gt12]

@Stargazer

I’d prefer that!

Whitelock’s making a shit deal of it, at least.

[Jailbreak7]

Wow Ioane taking a leaf out of the Mo'unga play book

[Chris]

Mitch Hunt goes to the Landers to sit on the bench Josh Ioane miles better player

[KiwiMurph]

Feel sorry for Chiefs there - Highlanders cleaning out from the side phase after phase and ref Fraiser doesnt give a fuck.

[Jailbreak7]

Wouldn't mind seeing Ioane going to the WC as third choice 10. That would make a full house of Ioane's...

[antipodean]

That break from Ioane was brilliant. Nice patience from the Clan to result in another try from a stunning pass from Aaron Smith.

[Stargazer]

@Chris Ioane is definitely putting his hand up to become the 3rd ABs 10. He probably won't make the RWC squad, but he might be the back-up who has to have his bag packed, just in case ...

[Chris B.]

Josh Ioane and Hemopo having very good games - and Smith and Smith have got it (still)!

[mariner4life]

Aaron Smith is owning it

[Chris]

@Stargazer 3rd best by a wee way I reckon a bit of Mounga about Ioane

[KiwiMurph]

Alaimalo really has shit hands.

[sparky]

Aaron Smith and Ben Smith all class.

Liam Coltman, Jackson Hemopo, Elliott Dixon and Josh Ioane giving the ABs selectors something to think about.

Luke Whitelock less so.

[Chris]

@sparky Luke Jacobsen also

[Jailbreak7]

@sparky Whereas ALB and Jacobson have easily been the Chiefs best by a long chalk.

[Jailbreak7]

Love that LO move!
