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

@Bovidae Any chance they will move Jacobson to 7?
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.

Was that not a knock on and offside?
That was so obvious in real-time. I bet the TMO was wearing a Qld jersey.

That and the head knock call into question their professionalism.

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.

McMillan's selections and sub decisions were poor.
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?

Ioane moved to 1st 5 against the Brumbies too, and created a couple of tries. I had no problem with that. But the big problem is that he lacks any distance in his kicks which is exposed at fullback. DMac is dangerous counter-attacking from deep.
Clearly, TTT is a distant third in the halfback ranks and shouldn't feature in the important games. Not having either first-choice winger makes a huge difference as the Chiefs don't have depth in those positions.
The scrum was disappointing and had been solid so far.
