Hurricanes v Chiefs

The backs are stinking up the place tonight. Look where you are passing Shaun Stevenson!!!

Too clever tonight and zero execution.

From an ABs perspective I wonder whether TJ is in danger of being overtaken by either TTT or Weber

No, not by a long shot. Unfortunately, because I'd love to see Weber in black again. TTT hasn't done anything lately to suggest he should be wearing black at all.

Fuck i hate TJP

How many replays does it take mate

BULLSHIT!!!

That's not the way it works either fluffybunnies. Fuck the TMO!

The TMO said he didn't lose the ball. Whats the problem?

Drink every time Nisbo says "snapped up by"

ShadowTrooper

TTT not enough time on the park but Weber has played himself back into form the last few weeks

MajorPom

Not sure what game I'm watching ... Weber's service has been fucking terrible.

Running game top notch, but balls are being thrown everywhere.

Canes almost paid for a crazy goal line dash by BB. Take the scrum man!

mariner4life

Bomb him Mess!

Tim

Two more awful passes from Weber in that passage. Cost the Chiefs points.

Donsteppa

I thought we'd be better this week for having DMac and Ngatai back. Instead the Chiefs backs are playing like a group of strangers with tunnel vision.

Thank goodness for halftime and hopefully a coaching rocket.

Yeah, I know what you are saying mate, but I think the language used was more like {reading unofficial ref speak code]"You called it as a try on field, then thought you'd seen a knock on but actually you were right to begin with.......". I realise none of that is official ref speak.

Stargazer

Dmac has been awful. Headless chook with terrible game management.

Tim

Both teams poor tonight, though Hurricanes putting some heat on at the ruck and from Laumape on defence.

Crusaders would beat both by 30 points.

Tim

@stargazer He's done alright given the awful service from Weber.

Tim

Hall should be a long way ahead of Weber in the AB stakes.

Weber is typically poor under pressure. Tells in these sorts of games. I remember him having a shocker at the Cake Tin a couple of years ago.

Stargazer

@tim He made his mistakes all by himself, particularly that intercepted pass that led to the first try, but that wasn't the only time.

mariner4life

Does either 10 look like a test player tonight?

I reckon it makes the game more fun when it's a bit (lot) loose

Bah Chiefs are playing shit.

How did Jordie Barrett not get penalised for his shoulder on Alaimalo? You can't just fly sideways with your shoulder at a tackler pushing someone over the sideline.

Going over the guidelines, I’m actually not sure wtf the protocols say for that situation - seems like the system is set up for the TMO to assume a try is scored and only look for evidence of it not being scored? So, given that, the decision seems understandable. What a ridiculous system.

Having said that, Hurricanes are playing better - Chiefs are just too inaccurate - and I’m primarily looking at you Weber!
