Highlanders would have to be happy this scoreline going into halftime despite the 2 cards

Very happy. Chiefs easily the better team so team so far, Lowe looking super rugby level so far. Gatland. OK then bad

@gunner wasnt it from a pass?

I'm really struggle if your player passes the ball so shittily and then you have to jump for it to see why that should earn a penalty, or worse, a card.

Shouldn’t matter should it, the guy was well in the air, and the defender ran into him, causing the man in the air to flip dangerously?

I’d need to see it again.

Crazy game ...once again we are seeing inconsistencies from the officials ..actually feel for the landers ,definitely have not had the run of the green ..officials need to lift their game ..if the powers at be want the players to lift their game then same goes for the officials

[Dice]

Finau has looked good so far.

Yeah thought he seemed pretty eager to whip out the card for Ash's penalty, yet didn't even think about it down the other end. Chiefs had twice as much ball though.

He has been quite consistent in what he is pinging. Remember that you now have to be clearly onside if you don’t want to run the risk of being pinged. All of the Landers penalties in the red zone were clearly offside and Tompkinson was plain brainless.
Dixon was the result of continued ignoring the ref!

@bones That was the clearest card in the history of cards.

[Stargazer]

Shit, DLB will be out for a while.

[taniwharugby]

man some poor passing

[Mokey]

That Highlanders uniform is ugly as hell. Was there a special at the army store?

[antipodean]

These ruck penalties are looking like a lottery from my chair.

[taniwharugby]

they blew a try there

I was coming here to type almost the same thing.

[Stargazer]

Yuss! Try to Ramen Noodles.

[antipodean]

Good defence Webber.

[Tim]

Nice work.

[Steven Harris]

@stargazer ..good snipe suspect that may have been YC if that try was not scored

[gt12]

We look about as average as I thought we’d be. That fucking charge down kick fucks me off so much.

[Gunner]

Who does Jonah Nareki think he is, Caleb Clarke?

[Tim]

Who kicked that away?
