Ardron at starting lock is, interesting.

Sounds like it is based on what they predict the SWs lineup to be and that Allardice coming on later will provide a valuable edge.
Plus there is the need to give game time to others in the squad. Its a long comp.
You have to take a risk sometimes with rotation and Allardice on the bench is a little insurance.

I used the word interesting mainly because I don't recall Ardron starting at lock for the Steamers, and arguably he wasn't in our top three loose forwards last season either.

Ardron did make a cameo at lock against the Blues. He's the same height as Brown so undersized for a lock.

DMac always has at least one kick out on the full a game. He gets one in the very first second of the game.

Tanaka getting the ball kicked by one of his team mates in the back of his head, Chiefs roll through multiple phases to score.

shitty blindside play there??

Chiefs score from a scrum through that Retallick guy.
0-14

Lineout try to Nathan Harris, both teams doing their best to bury memories of the game last year

This is already an ugly scoreline.

Funny seeing BBBR just yank an injured Pulu out of the way of the ruck.

Stargazer

Awful game to watch. Sunwolves are so shit that they almost make the Chiefs look great.

Nepia

Wow, worst non called forward pass ever.

Donsteppa

Not sure what it is about Mackenzie’s and shithouse defending.

Stargazer

Boshier went down in a heap there; hope he's okay.

I don’t know about Marty but DMac is a decent defender.

KiwiMurph

Both Mackenzie brothers offer nothing in defense in the same passage of play and the Sunwolves score

Maybe because they guy who received the ball was in front of Leitch.

Baron Silas Greenback

What are terrible mess up by the ref. The ball was literally handed forward
