SF Blues v Brumbies
-
Loloseio went way too early there. The reality is a drop goal is low percentage. You are better off waiting to get a penalty advantage.
@hydro11 ball was like a piece of soap, so I’m not sure keeping it close was going to be high percentage either

How dumb was Beauden for not kicking it deep into their half.
If you kick it deep they can easily run it back. You bomb to create contestable kicks.

Not if you kick it out

Oh shit I thought the Brumbies player was on his feet and over the ball there, ref didn't have the balls to call the penalty
Ben O’Keeffe (Auckland) being a tad biased there you think?

Weber ahead of Christie for the ABs.
Bring back TJP based on their last performances

Kicking deep is pointless unless it's to space. Every team has people back covering kicks during open play on defense. The only time they don't is on turnover, or some muppet runs it.

I hear you, but all game, and from decent attacking positions on the field?
Nah.

Only if they closed their eyes for the maul that led to their second try. Never would've happened, worst pile of shit I've seen for ages, brumbies had 4 players just joining in front of the ball carrier.

AJ Lam was the best on the park tonight. Bolter for the ABs, better pick than Clarke IMO.

Brumbies were always going to fuck this game up with a poor man's Bryn Gatland at first five.
As a Chiefs fan I object to that. I think Gatland is a poor mans Lolesio..

As a Chiefs fan I intend to salvage at least some pride from this weekend: we didn't get charged down by a prop.

One of my hatiest things in rugby, but unfortunately it happens basically every game without being penalised.

All good, top 2 teams from table in final. so not too much to argue about.
NZRU will be loving it.
Two reasons I want the Blues to lose it.
- Seeing Beauden win as a Blue is just yuck.
- Won’t have to hear Kirwan gloat for the next year.
