Reds v Chiefs

[Dan54]

No doubt who deserved the win. Reminded me of New Plymouth last year, in last 20 you know the Reds weren't going to let it slip.

@Tim It feels like Super Rugby is back tbh. Hasn't been this competitive since about 2015.

Just need to get rid of the Crusaders and Force

McMillan's selections and sub decisions were poor.

Probably too many changes from last week. Was Dmac and LCF the only two in same starting position in the backs?

[African Monkey]

@chimoaus Especially the first one.

@Bovidae Any chance they will move Jacobson to 7?

That can't be all of it - tad perplexing just how flat and disjointed the whole team looked.

@Bones said in Reds v Chiefs:

Was that not a knock on and offside?

That was so obvious in real-time. I bet the TMO was wearing a Qld jersey.

[chimoaus]

Chiefs set piece was very ordinary tonight and the Reds exemplary. Set piece and D wins games and that showed tonight.

[Tordah]

Twice in the last 10 minutes Chiefs either bombed a try or Reds scrambling defence was unbelievably good. Sad, but that was an exciting game

I doubt it. Boshier is probably his no.7. I said that Parker at 7 was a mistake - not his fault. The Chiefs had very little pressure on the Qld breakdown. Just a flat performance. Even the bounce of the ball didn't go their way.

That and the head knock call into question their professionalism.

[Bovidae]

And if the Qld player did touch the ball before Stevenson scored that should have been a PT and YC.

What happened to nanai seturo, chiefs should hope the likes of tupaea lord and narawa are back next week because they looked very flat

[booboo]

Well curse you jinx gods.

Haven't seen the game, but did Jacomb get on? I am guessing he did from the comments about DMac at 15 during the thread.

He replaced Ioane in the 71st min. I can't remember Jacomb being too involved though as the play went through DMac.

I'm watching the game and thinking...WHY? Why put DMac at the back and JI in at first receiver? No beef with JI but why put the best first-five in the comp at the back at Ballymore with a strong Reds team?
