I'd say this iteration of the Chiefs is the best since they won a title.

You'd need to compare with 2013. Really rough comparison probably edges it to 2023 on the loosies, but even that is very debateable.
Props: 2013
Hooker: 2023
Locks: Equal (2023 on depth)
Loose Forwards: 2023
Halfback: Equal
First-five: Equal
Midfield: 2013 (Ngatai, Kahui, Aki vs ALB, Poihipi, Nankivell)
Wings: Equal

Reds have won 2 of the last 3 against the Chiefs
The margin has been 6 points or less since 2019

Odd that the Chiefs struggle so much against them, we seem to find it hard to break down their defensive system.
Which is ironical as other teams seem to have no problems at all...

Have these two teams not heard of the defensive bomb :beaming_face_with_smiling_eyes:

Hard for @Derpus to complain about the reffing in this one with an all Aussie officials team.

Unfortunately they are just as prone to averageness as their Kiwi counter parts...... Gardiner is one of the better ones for me.. but can be inconsistent with the way he applies advantage (some times it goes for ages)
