Chiefs vs Brumbies

Why are the Chiefs just throwing the ball away?

[Donsteppa]

PGS picked a good time to fire again.

Exactly get some phases together

[Tim]

NZ locks are not looking good this year.

Good try.

Taukei'aho and Tupaea best of the Chiefs.

And run hard straight at the 10

[antipodean]

Am I watching the same game as Pickerill?

Bad miss form Cane there

He's way off his game tonight.

[Tim]

@Toddy Cane has been poor tonight, hasn't even put pressure on over the ball. Papalii is knocking.

[Mattasaurus]

@akan004 how can they pick him ahead of Paps..

[Gunner]

Terrible play there, big loopy skip pass to the winger who then fired a no look forward pass.

Chiefs basic rugby skills letting them down tonight - ball handling and passing mostly.

[Tim]

Jacobson isn't making the All Blacks this year. Looks very average.

You sure?
Foster remember.

[Tim]

@Gunner Foster have that place saved for Frizzell.

[Mattasaurus]

Kiwi teams kicks in play miles behind this...

I’m sure he could easily find another spot.

[Mattasaurus]

Not scoring just before half time proving costly..

[hydro11]

Chiefs have just been horrible tonight. Completely outthought in this game.

Haven’t watched a lot of rugby this season.

Have the Chiefs got anything other than one out runners bashing it up and really shitty attempts at cute little chip kicks?

That is the way of all the kiwi teams thses days.

That and giving away large numbers of penalties for no reason.

Didn’t see much of that from the Blues last night.
I suppose they were only having a training run though.

Blues aside I have been concerned at the lack of fluency in back play of the NZ teams this year.
