        @anonymous thought that one was just right!

        I mean consistently.

        By all halfbacks, I hate how many box kicks there are that go 10 metres.

          @nepia to be fair haven’t watched too much of the Chiefs so not sure how he’s gone all season but he’s looked good from what I’ve seen of him.

          Assuming @Machpants is incorrect and you aren't fishing, he's been pretty average - this is easily his best game of the season.

          @nepia nah not fishing, actually think he looks decent tonight but haven’t seen him enough so fair call if he’s been average for the rest of the season.

            Arsed or what I like to call Wayne Barnesism; simply overwhelmed so he doesn't make a decision?

              That was a great conversion from Gatland.

                Shit it must be cool for some of those young Chiefs forwards having the opportunity to rub shoulders with mighty Messam.

                    Norris off for Lindenmouth is a bit step down.

                    Norris looks really good for the future.

                      @gt12 De Groot last night and Norris tonight look like two quality loose-heads to keep an eye out for the future.

                        I don't know what the commentary team is going on about. A gift three points putting you in front, you receive and get to go again.

                                Found your mistake, thinking the commentary team know what they're talking about.

                                  I do hate how long Nock has his hands on the ball though, lucky refs protect the 9s though

                                    @tim it’s not even that , just the lack of accuracy and urgency …if you look the chiefs ball at rucks , bodies are being shifted and the ball comes out quickly , and the number of times Sowakula has got over the ball is alarming and he’s not a 7 ..just the first cleaner no matter who that is arrives late ..

                                      Sowakula was over that ball. I'd challenge that.

                                        @steven-harris their gameplan often has Sotutu and Tom stationed on the wing together, so when it breaks down in the middle or the other side neither are there

                                          That set piece issue was always going to come into play. We’ll lose for sure now if we cant secure set piece.
