Drua v Chiefs

[African Monkey]

Number 20 for the Drua, Murray is impressive. Runs onto the ball hard.

[Bovidae]

The Chiefs have had so little territory and possession in the 2nd half. But the Drua have played well.

Murphy is still a woeful ref.

Have to be one of the few times.the Drua won the penalty count, and convincingly

Jacomb shows some nice touches at times but the hype is way over the top.

You seen the weather? Bit harsh all things considered. He’s been ok imo, although that early missed goal kick has probably thrown him off a bit.

More the hype about him being the next AB 10 etc. I don't see it.

I won't be too harsh on him, Lautoka is a graveyard for touring sides.

Graveyard is pushing it

Chiefs won there in 2022

Blues won there in 2023

[Steven Harris]

Got to say and I’m not defending the Chiefs performance but inconsistency from the official has been an issue imo especially in and around no clear release

[KiwiMurph]

Drua completely shut down Tupaea

And no one since.

Seems a state of our game that so often in attack mode (30m in) we are looking to kick so often, so little.creativity on attack.

Made him look very average. Not that he's been helped by his forwards much.

[taniwharugby]

@antipodean sucked.into the Fijian loose game

[Yeetyaah]

Deserved victory for Drua.

"Learnings" for Jacomb. He needed to keep the ball in front of the forwards. Carter had a shocker with his hands.

[African Monkey]

Important BP for the Chiefs there.

It's always tough going to Fiji, and recovering the next week, where most sides lose the following week after a Fiji road trip. For the Chiefs, they have the Blues next week, where I would back them to win on current form, however, do the Blues have a real chance now after this brutal game that the Chiefs have had?

Haha, wouldn't expect anything less from you

Tupaea was a flop in Fantasy this week, thankfully most people selected him. I changed Umaga-Jensen for Tupaea last minute. Damnit.

I've got both, saw the weather forecast as dropped two chiefs, should've dropped them all

[ARHS]

Chiefs lineouts coach has a lot to answer for. Why overcomplicate every throw. That and poor godlkicking cost chiefs. Great wake up call though. Well done Drua

[ploughboy]
