QF: Chiefs v Reds

Machpants

Finau with a huge (legal) shoulder in defense too. Smashed Vunivalu.

FAB next year for me

That scrum must have looked very different on Gardiners side than the camera angle

Finau plays rugby just to hurt people. Love him.

There isn't a better 6 in NZ now let alone in 12 months

We're lucky that the Reds can't even kick over the proverbial sandcastle.

Wasn't expecting this tbh. Reds have brought the intensity and the Chiefs are looking rattled.

@mariner4life I want to see how Flanders goes tonight vs Brumbies.

Stargazer

Why isn't O'Connor taking over the kicking duties?

Nepia

I wish they'd go back to the lineout, looked suspiciously like they formed to the right with players in front of the ball.

Still, good work from the Reds to be two tries up over the Chiefs.

Narawa not showing well in front of Foz

Wasn't expecting this tbh. Reds have brought the intensity and the Chiefs are looking rattled.

Half time message to the Chiefs might be to focus on their core individual roles a lot more.

Nepia

That's a rough penalty really, it appeared to be a slip, and the scrum set anyway.

Tim

Chiefs need to use their forwards before going wide. Patience.

Kirwan

Huge try

Donsteppa

Much better.

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

I don't think it will be hard for him at all!

Mattasaurus

Beauty .... right on 40mins......

antipodean

That's a lovely try. Great way to close out the half.

Machpants

Great try, patience

Kirwan

Nothing more important than a try before and after halftime.

Tim

Great try. Well worked.
