    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.

      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.

            Classic case of dominating everywhere except the scoreboard for the Chiefs

              That should be a YC.

              Didn’t need to do it either, the next Highlander was miles behind

                Lucky not to be a yc. He should have got back around and he probably steal it anyway.

                  If he didn't need to do it - doesn't that go against the case of a yellow card?

                      Those types of misses are unforgiveable.

                          I didn't realise you could get off the ground in an offside position and grab a ball.

                            Definitely shouldn't have been. It was a marginal timing issue and the Chiefs had plenty of players back.

                              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.

                                        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.

                                          Highlanders best 40 minutes of the season but in reality you just get the impression the floodgates will open in the 2nd half
                                          Is it me or would Paul Williams fit right in as a cop in those police stop videos out of the USA..?
