Chiefs v Crusaders
-
Sevu Reece must have played his last game for the All Blacks. Absolutely terrible
-
A good night out. I'll watch a replay before reading the whole thread. I'm interested to see how Jacobson got concussed as the TMO was silent.
It might not have been noticeable on TV but the wind was very gusty, particularly in the 2nd half. It made the box kicks a lottery and probably affected the long lineout throws too. I still don't like that the Chiefs don't compete more on the opposition throw.

Penney blamed the wind at halftime and inferred they'd be much better with the wine behind them. Glorious.

Gotta say I loving Tupaea's first to games!
Quinn Tupaea is the Player of the Tournament so far and he was the best player of the All Blacks XV's European tour in November.
If he keeps this up, he clearly should be a key part of the All Blacks set up in 2025. A classy player.
Has mongrel too.
Would love to see him back in black after what that grub Darcy Swain did to him.
Delighted for him today.

And then started whining about injuries after the game.
Marshall's tone of commentary dropped off in the 2nd half too lol. He made TJ sound neutral.

I thought Vai'i had a bloody good game too. He seemed to be inposing himself on the game with carries etc. Mind you I struggling to pick out any Chiafs that didn't play well. Tight 5 I thought were better, loosies a class above, and in general whole backline I thought looked to be better (which you would expect with forwards beating uo the opposition. I also think Tupaea looks like he really grown into he frame, I so bloody impressed with his game.

@KiwiMurph has a bit more size to him than Squire...he needs to add a bit of aggression to his game and he could make the step up.
