Chiefs v Highlanders

@Jailbreak7 unfortunately Timu is now injured, landers backline casualty ward is ever growing Timu, Gilbert, Lowe, Nareki, Gregory

I'm starting to think ALB may fall into the same category as Goodhue. Too broken, too often. Nothing wrong with his rugby brain but appears that injuries have curtailed his pace and impaired reaction time, making him easier to read for defences. Whilst I'm keen to see more of Poihipi, Chiefs midfield has a temporary look and feel to it with Nankivell heading offshore, whereas TUJ and Timu are progressing nicely complementing each other (and have been bright spots) in an underperforming team.
@Jailbreak7 That ankle injury was a freak injury. If ALB has repeated problems with his shoulder then I would be concerned.

Fetuli Paea starts, Jake Te Hiwi on the bench

Paea who would be the fourth choice centre with Ta$man? Being backed up to Te Hiwi who is barely getting his provincial career going. What shithouse options.

That should be a YC.
Didn’t need to do it either, the next Highlander was miles behind
If he didn't need to do it - doesn't that go against the case of a yellow card?
He was double dumb. Cynical play that wasn’t needed

Dmac is kicking well tonight.
Those types of misses are unforgiveable.

I didn't realise you could get off the ground in an offside position and grab a ball.
-
Is it just me or does PPP look like he skips legs day and could do with some more mass on his legs?
-
Chiefs passing is a thing of beauty. DMac's kicking is a wee bit crap tonite. Jacobson playing well.
Highlanders midfield D is good.

Good work by Finau at that maul

Dmac having an absolute shitter
Chiefs seem to be trying way too hard. I think they just need to be a little more direct in the forwards, build a few phases and then the gaps will open up. Probably chancing their arm too much instead of being patient.
