Chiefs v Hurricanes

Stargazer

@bovidae But Brodie is back!! :flexed_biceps:

Happy to see Falcon in the line-up, but wish he'd get the start. Maybe too early after his injury and lack of game time.

Bovidae

I'm surprised TTT isn't starting so you have a provincial 9-10-12 combo.

Jacobson is getting a well-deserved rest to be ready to go next week with Cane and Messam.

Hopefully we at least manage to second in this fixture.

I just can't see our backs firing with Marty at the helm. Hopefully I am wrong again

Hooroo

In saying that, having BBBR back is like playing with 16 men. He is just immense with an amazing engine

Stargazer

Crucial

Pre-emptive?
Probably felt a trip to the doc was coming anyway with all the hospital passes from MMac.

Canes paying $1.47 Chiefs $2.55

Looking at the team sheets minus Ngatai, it's a bit hard to argue with those odds.

Stargazer

It's getting worse for the Chiefs:

Chiefs line-out maul not working.

Stargazer

First try to big Brodie!

Stargazer

Great urgency from the Chiefs; Canes need to wake up.

Donsteppa

Very casual from Alaimalo at the back there.

Stargazer

Intercept try to Weber!

Donsteppa

BBarrett on the receiving end of an intercept for once

pakman

Weber red hot tonight!

Stargazer

@pakman Finding his best form right in time for the Mitre 10 Cup :thumbs_up_medium-light_skin_tone:

Donsteppa

Weber looks like he's taking a lot more responsibility tonight with ball in hand with the loss of DMac and Ngatai.

MMac with poor hands tonight.

Donsteppa

Chiefs backs carving up the Canes.

WTF is the music still playing while they are calling for lineouts?
