Chiefs v Crusaders
-
Neither 10 has stamped authority on this match so far.
-
The 3 premier 10s in NZ are all the same, and all substandard

DMac needs to not come out of the tunnel after half time.
How on earth are the Crusaders not in front?

Good tackling and a fair amount of Chiefs luck

On replay it went forward from his hands, slightly. Not enough to overrule the initial play on call and for mine, certainly not egregious enough to rule out the try already awarded.
I don't get it. It went forward but it should be ignored because great try?
I don't think it was "clear and obvious".

Oh right, even when you can see where he touched it and where it landed?

Beaten up at the scrum, and at the breakdown, plus poor kicking. Chiefs haven't been much better in some aspects.

The Mooloo gods are at the game tonight. Feral crowd, AC/DC music as well... it is all class in the Tron tonight!
-
Biggest concern so far is (from an ABs perspective) is the 10s not taking control of the game...
Chiefs pretty lucky to be ahead in my opinion.. imagine there are a few Saders fans grumpy with a couple of the "50/50" calls
Scott Barrett, Emoni Narawa and LF the pick of teh first 40mins for me.

What a bizarre scoreline, is it the Crusaders flacid attack or the Chiefs rock hard defence?

That's abloody good defence the Chiefs have got. Jacobson is doing some bloody good work, as is Cane. but can they keep it up for another 40?
-
The no try from the knock on is understandable but failing to go back to the first infringement is not. If Angus had forgotten the TMO could have reminded him. The volume on my TV is down, did any Saders say anything to Angus at the time? If not they probably should have.

I think it's more can the Saders keep it up? The Chiefs have hardly had a chance, surely their time will come. The Chiefs have more than enough fire-power to trouble the Saders.

So many times teams throw the ball over the back and it isn't straight.
