anyone got a clip of the high shot on LJ
Wasn't a high shot, he was coming down. There was nothing there at all. I think he may of collided with another Chiefs player.

i want to see again so i can make own mind up.
the one that they quicky showed he collected a shoulder and head to head, found it strange did not look at the time.didnt look like a chiefs player to me but would like to see again to confirm -
@ploughboy I thought it was head on head at the time but someone said it wasn't when I asked...but wasn't replayed to check

It was a head on head and then a shoulder on head. Could make the case it wasn't foul play and there was nothing the Crusaders players could have done better but incidents like that have certainly been ou pushed more severely in other matches.

Saders get a bye and two home games against the Reds and Force. If we can't win at least one, Penney goes.
Bet he doesn't, even if the Saders lose both. NZ don't get rid of coaches mid season all that often.

Vaa'i has made me eat my words. Never rated him and couldn't understand what he did to warrant his selection in the ABs over the years, but he started looking really good in black last year and appears to have added a physical edge to his game this year that he didn't have previously. Looks like he's put on some size as well.

Chiefs look like absolute dogshit.
I’m just catching up on this thread now. I have no idea how you could have thought or said this at any point in the game…
Watching the line outs

Bugger me! I'm on the Chiefs train. They are great to watch. Seems to have added a bit of starch to their forward pack this year. MacMillian continues to impress as a coach.
Great to see NZ has finally a tactical kicker who can control the game. DMac continuing on from his performances last year and against the Irish. There is no way the AB selectors could ...... shittings...... -

Jacomb is fucking average AF
All he had to do was stay on Grace to cover the pass.
I had a good view of that try. I'm not sure why Narawa was always defending so narrow.

And hopefully Lord gets a decent injury free run to show what he can do.

Noticeable that some Crusaders weren't retreating. Must be tired.
Our reserve front row have been exposed.
The scrum has been one of the most pleasing things so far irrespective of who is playing. Credit to Dewes.

Whoever is in charge of coaching our lineout needs to go.
Jono Gibbes this year. Some of the lineouts went spectacularly wrong.
Let's just keep it simple as there is plenty of height in the lineout.
Funny, last years U20's lineout was shambolic.

But improved from the previous year. Andrew Smith was very good on NZ's and the opposition's throw.
Bason is like Slater as a lineout thrower - you never know what you will get.
