Blues v Chiefs

[Yeetyaah]

Clear try. Don't know why he's bothering with the TMO

[Canes4life]

@KiwiMurph so is that meant to be an excuse? TRY time Blues.

It makes the ball slippery, so yes. Both sides struggling with it

[Tim]

Great to see Hodgman dominating All Black tightheads. He's been good around the field, so if his scrummaging has stepped up it will be great.

[Machpants]

So who was picking the chiefs for champs...?

Not that the first games means that much, but they've got a fair bit of work to do

Long season looming for the Chiefs on this effort so far.

I think @Tim had it right when he said there wasn’t much (up front) beyond the front row and Cane. With Neps and Harris out, the front row is no longer a strength, and we have four loosies playing with no senior lock.

Early days, but it could get ugly.

[Canes4life]

@Kirwan Maybe they should train with a slippery ball then?

[kiwiinmelb]

Nice to see reiko looking hungry for the try line

Gats might need to be a miracle worker. With the Blues on track for a massive two game winning streak, things must be dire...

That should have been a penalty to us earlier - Tupaea tackler by a player on the ground.

[Yeetyaah]

Fuck me did Cooper actually step down?

[Machpants]

They're bigging merchant, butt he didn't fucking pass it did he

They didn’t find anything close to a replacement for BBBR so we’re always going to be in trouble.

[KiwiMurph]

So a shit Ruru pass gives chiefs the ball then he gives away the penalty....

[Yeetyaah]

Ffs finally.

[Machpants]

Yawn, good try I guess. Why didn't more blues forwarded committ. There was no way they were going to spin that?

[Steven Harris]

Man there’s been a lot average stuff in amongst a lot of potentiality good stuff..Blues should be up by 20 plus , but instead they could go into halftime after having most the ball and field position only 7 points up...general consensus from the press box is the halves have no taken control of this game ...

[gt12]

Get them any way you can I guess. We’re second best out there, but nice to see us get points with a bit of possession and territory.
