    I’m still trying to understand why, with only that much time left, they decided to kick for goal, knowing that it would still be a two score game.

    Something’s a bit rotten at the Chiefs; we’ve been on the slide to the worst NZ side since Rennie left (is there one big signing since he left?) and I’m starting wonder if last year was rock bottom.

    Honestly, would that team come close to another NZ team?

          It has certainly become clear that he and Cane were carrying the team since 2017.

            The charge down try before half time is a killer. Gatland is not a bad player but fuck me that was stupid considering he had an overlap 15m out from the line.

              Sean Wainui has always been utterly shithouse at 13, so why the fuck was he starting instead of Nankivell or Tupaea?

                When Nareki scored his first try, just, after nearly being run down by Lowe, I was thinking why the fuck is TJ knocking one out over him? Well, I got that thought 100% wrong.

                    I was in the kitchen when he scored that try and it was like TJ was standing next to me, I had to turn the volume down when I rewinded it and watched the real time try. 😉

                    Also, I know you're lying when you include the words stunning, brilliance and Gatland in the same sentence and claim someone actually said that.

                          @stargazer Thanks, should've seen that. Still, Nankivell would've been a much better option.

                                  12 behind kick pen 9 behind game then becomes converted try plus penalty to win.

                                      I've just seen the Nareki highlights. Some disgraceful defence.

                                      No half competent team should give up that many straight points to go from a great position to well beaten.

                                      We're fucked.

                                        How did Weber get captaincy after being so average last year?

                                        His defense was shocking in this game. His passing wasn't that great either.

                                          We have to endure JGB so come on have some sympathy for them. We know how Nepia and the Chiefs supporters must be feeling!
