Never fcken liked you bro!

@Yeetyaah and Gats gameplan does not involve ALB

[Tim]

@voodoo Both teams have been arse. Tons of breakdown penalties.

[Donsteppa]

"Referees to enforce the breakdown" is an "innovation"?

[Canes4life]

Perfect opportunity to showcase rugby but this game has been pants. Hopefully we see something special tomorrow.

[voodoo]

Tell you what though, this women's touch game on Te Reo is pretty good! Locked at 4 apiece right now, it's electric!!!

@Canes4life I know we aint here to be fair, but most opening round matches arent too disimilar to this in terms of accuracy and intensity

It is a pretty revolutionary idea though...

His gameplan seems to be based on everyone having had a nice holiday during quarantine.

[Tim]

@taniwharugby This looks more like a pre-season game.

[Yeetyaah]

Good run from Tupaea but so many rolls and fucks it up.

[Bones]

Nisbo has lost it eh. Did he just say this pen is 40m out?

[Tim]

Chiefs aren't going to win many games without a lineout.

[Tim]

@Bones He did indeed!

[Yeetyaah]

ALB falling from grace?

[taniwharugby]

@Tim in a way I guess it kinda is...almost 3 months since they last played, 6-8 weeks where they did no team work at all, now thier first game, which is usually a 'friendly'

[WillieTheWaiter]

wtf going on with sky not showing any replays of the breakdown before pens.. just show players walking to lineouts or lining up kicks.. odd.

[Chris B.]

Main question is whether Hammer's driving maul and Mitch Hunt's goal kicking can win it for the 'Landers!

I think they've been trying to show less replays of that over the past couple of years to try to reduce complaints about the referees
