Hurricanes vs Chiefs

[Donsteppa]

Very last replay seemed to show a try. Was dubious for a while there until they found that angle, AR had the best view by the looks of it.

[Chris]

@Donsteppa May have been hands under that ball on the last reply should have gone to the TMO

[Damo]

The AR was in great position and he was definitive that the ball was grounded on the line. Inconclusive camera angles are not good evidence compared to a guy who was in good position and saw the incident close up.

[Chris]

Still should have gone upstairs shit call

[gt12]

Fuck me, how many meters does J Barrett have so far?

Of course, we should imagine how many he’d have if he were playing in his better position..

[Toddy]

Good call for the try.

[Donsteppa]

Nervous every time our back three have to tackle or field a kick under pressure.

[Chris]

Same touch judge called the chiefs wing held up when he clearly scored the try so dont trust his judgment

He recommended the ref go use the TMO. He wasn't sure in that case, but on this occasion he was sure.

[Toddy]

Chiefs didn't let TJ play the ball when he was short. They played the man while off their feet. Could've been a penalty try

131m according to ESPN, probably a bit more

[Chris]

Was he really ?? his judgment is crap

[Donsteppa]

28 - 12 at halftime. A fair reflection of the game unfortunately...

[Stargazer]

That was some fast rugby in that first half. Almost tired of watching that. Entertaining.

[Chris]

Some really soft defence in this game by both teams disappointing from NZ teams

[Stargazer]

@Chris Yeah, definitely room for improvement. It looked sloppy.

[Chris]

@Stargazer apart from the Crusaders our other teams seem to have slide backwards in overall skills,worries me about going forward for The AB’s

Our line speed has been really good but there is a lot of space out wide.

Both teams should try not to kick the ball whenever possible. Lots of metres to be gained.

[Stargazer]

@Chris I think in teams other than the Crusaders, it's more individuals playing well, but not as teams. While the Crusaders it's both at team and individual level that they perform well.

[Chris]

@hydro11 yep I agree some space up the middle if they are patient
