Chiefs v Blues
-
Chiefs by 15..
Blues forwards to give away too many penalties early while the smiling assassin will walk up and kick the Chiefs into a early lead, Beaudy with a 3 man overlap will try and kick pass instead... but alas will go to Stevenson who appears to have Will Jordan like capabilities lately get a magic bounce and put ENS away for a try. Blues subs to add impact but in chasing the game Rieko will break through a gap but ignore support to go himself ..fail..and the margin cant be reduced..
Close?

You forgot that Caleb Clarke will break through a couple of tackles, get in the clear, trip over his own feet then spill the ball

After signing Reihana they just haven’t given him a go. Seem to have written him off.
It would be good to know what the situation is with Reihana. He didn't play in the pre-season games, or for the Chiefs Dev team in their game against the Chiefs U20s. There has to be a reason for his continued absence.

He was just on an overseas holiday with his partner based on his Instagram posts and stories

@Canes4life We've won 2 of the last 3 there and beat them 25-0 last year with Barrett having a blinder in both victories.

Nevertheless, Chiefs to win by 10.

Is it already known who of Jacob Ratumaitavuki-Kneepkens and Zarn Sullivan will be on the Blues' bench?

@Yeetyaah odd for him to go on holiday at this stage unless he had an injury or they determined they'd not need him?

Looking forward to this match.... certainly should be a step up from the mis-matches.

@Stargazer depends on AJ Lam as of last evening

..and AJ is out
So JRK starts and Zarn is on the bench

pumped for this even though I'm pretty neutral between these two teams.
Really want to See BB put the shitty kicks away and take the line on a bit .. ( not holding my breath)
Think the chiefs locks have it over the blues .. and rest of the packs match up well.. it will be interesting to see who provides the better ball for their respective backs
-
Big test for Stephenson. He needs to step up in these games if he wants higher honours.

Beautiful kick

@Crazy-Horse so what part of Shaun Stephenson being outstanding against the Crusaders in Round 1 did you miss ..?, and every game since then

A rare excellent tactical field kick by Beauden.
This looks like it’s going to be a cracker.
Bit worried about these early penalties from the Chiefs.

I didn't see the Saders game, but given we are a few games into the season I would expect this to be a bigger test. I am a fan of his. I hope he makes every post a winner.
