I was pissed at us taking the three before, because the logic in that situation is that we'l hold them scoreless, which we clearly can't.<br><br>
So, the only way to come back is score tries, which we can't do either, sadly.

That's unfair. He's played shit tonight, but that doesn't make him shit.</p></blockquote>
<br>
He tries his best and is an excellent defender but he just has no attacking instincts. I'm not saying he's shit, he just isn't very good.

<p>how was that not straight off his feet against Ardie? </p>

[dingo]

<p>Chiefs need to score now to stay in it</p>

[taniwharugby]

<p>crucial t/o by Ardie</p>

Yellow card finally?

Last, last, last, last, last warning from Hometown in the 22.

<br>
He's struggled a bit since his injury, but he's still a great defensive halfback and has done a great job for the ABs in that role - coming on and helping close out games. <br><br>
Either way, right now he's fighting for his place in the ABs with Weber, no doubt.

Yellow card finally?</p></blockquote>Nup! Haha, I'll admit we have deserved 1 YC this match. Still, body on the line defense, Canes are not giving an inch.

[taniwharugby]

<p>The AB selectors have always called him back, when fit, so they rate TKB.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Jeez Bird is stepping up! </p>

[No Quarter]

Blatent knock down from Jane...

[Donsteppa]

Fucking hometown!!! Genuine intercept attempt my arse

[dingo]

<p>Thats a fucking harsh YC!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>You watch a ball going past your nose and try not to catch it.</p>

[Donsteppa]

Finally a fucking cheat gets a last last last, oh, yellow card

[gt12]

For all that the Canes have been the better team, the difference between the teams has basically been two fantastic pieces of play by Barrett.

Which unfortunately says everything about ab halfback depth.

[Gunner]

I guess it's hard to be anonymous with a cool name like Ricatelli (sp sorry?) but he certainly made sure he didn't just blend in to the background.<br><br>
Made some big plays tonight, I'm well impressed! Promising signs.
