Roe has been impressive
He's a good player but was average today. Too much mucking around at the back of the ruck, IMO.

The scrumhalf? I thought he was shit.

Brumbies playing a very good brand of footy...
I guess the missed the memo about aimless kicking. -
Valentini... Has been very good
@Mattasaurus I would say very,very good , in fact looking like a world class 6..we are starting to see consistency in his game

Chiefs problems were all at 15 and 10 in my view. Brumbies kicking game vastly superior and Chiefs kick reception skills poor. Thought Ratima and Tupaea had their best games this season amongst it. Narawa looked threatening too.
Tough week for Sam Cane. Congrats on the birth mate. Some things are more important than rugby. -

I was just going to post this after returning from the game. It was very noticeable how high (like really high) and accurate White's box kicks were so that the Brumbies could compete. His kickoffs were also effective. In comparison, Gatland and Trask's kicking was woeful. Gatland had one of those games while everything I have said about Trask as a fullback was evident in this game.
The Brumbies certainly push the offside line but it seemed that the ARs were only looking at the Chiefs.
In the end, the Brumbies were too efficient and too good. The Chiefs certainly didn't help themselves with numerous mistakes whenever they got close on the scoreboard.

@Kirwan it was all Valetini. I thought the chiefs made easy gain line with all of their runs except when they came up against him.
He seems to finally be coming into his own.

Ah poop.
Brumbles better team. Deserved winners.
Gatland not up to it.
Trask worse.
Too many errors.

Lolesio wanted no part of Gus running at him.

I would suggest Derpus that Valentini is the best 6 in super rugby at the moment, and part of a very good and seemingly well coached team.

There are a few things I hope Chiefs tweak in remaining games before playoffs. Need to give Rivez Reihana max time at fullback. Hope to see Josh Ioane starting each week at 10. Moli is not back to his old self so happy to see Dyer on bench. And I want to see Mitch Jacobson tried off the bench chasing turnovers and acting as a support runner. Finally Lowe and Narawa are best 2 starting wingers.
