QF Chiefs v Waratahs

[taniwharugby]

@Kirwan dumb really, he didn't even need to get involved

[Kirwan]

BBBR running hard late in the game.

@Victor-Meldrew all depends on smiths fitness....

Players diving past the ruck and cleaning out from the side. Berry ignores it all to help the Tahs get down the field.

More than a few chiefs cleaning players off the ball as well

@Victor-Meldrew I hope you're right, TJ is glacial at the back of rucks... He'd have to play out of his skin to get a look in my ABs squad

He's been good today. Only one game, but hope his mojo is coming back

@Mattasaurus said in QF Chiefs v Waratahs:

Webber has had a strong game.

I dunno he's had some utter shockers from the base of the ruck, at least half a dozen

[NTA]

Tahs their.own worst enemies with the handling errors.

And Paddy Ryan.

[NTA]

Might as well put Grant on for Gordon. We ain't winning

And some really bad passes.

[antipodean]

I don't get the platitudes for Webber's game.

[Crucial]

Hoopah hasn’t been allowed into the game which is impressive considering we have a makeshift openside

[Machpants]

Jacobsen is standing up when the ABs need him, BBBR looks back to his best, and Tupaea showing class as player (if not a person)

39-15 with 8 to go

Yep, good D and nice distribution.

[Crazy Horse]

If QT can play as well next week he will do his chances of being the AB 12 no harm. I have had reservations about him the last few weeks despite his apparent form because he was playing the lessor teams. He has taken ownership of this game and played well. Good to see.

Absolutely. They have pushed boundaries in that area and in holding players down to make them slow to the next phase. Just done it quietly enough to get away with it

[Machpants]

13 errors by tahs, I reckon it's more than that!

[antipodean]

Imagine if the Chiefs had a halves pairing that were actually good at passing.

I reckon Gatland must be close to that number himself.
Why wasn’t he swapped for Ioane?

Keeping the powder dry for the saders?
