Chiefs v Reds
-
Reds have had the edge on us recently in the regular season, winning 3 of the last 4 (and i think one includes the only NZ team to lose a Super TT game, in Townsville, that i fucking travelled for).
Chiefs win play off games though.
I read an article that i can't verify the accuracy of, that stated the Reds haven't kicked a penalty goal all season?? If it's wet surely that changes?
-
The Reds just beat the Highlanders playing away. And their weakened selection got humped by the Crusaders. I think GC Invitational XV will be shown up as pretenders tomorrow night.

Yep it’s accurate.

v Moana - 56-36 - 8T / 8C -
@ACT-Crusader that conversion strike rate isn't too shabby either.
I wonder what their execution rate is when they opt for anything other than a shot at goal?

Doing all I can to fix these ladder positions.
-
plenty of illegal looking cleanouts
-
Terrible error to handover possession in your own 22.
You'd think they'd apply a safety first approach in these conditions to lineouts.
-
Reds ruck work is pretty damn good. Some of their passing from 9 and 10 hasn’t been great.
Good pressure and now try by the Refs.
-
Dreadful maul defence from the Chiefs - waited too long to engage and got smashed.
-
And the not taking the 3 strategy worked again for the Reds.

Chiefs didn't look great in the wet in Fiji
Reds might fancy their chances here
For wet conditions the Reds are certainly playing a more adventurous style.

DMac a little lucky there

What's the fascination with lightweight backs trying to do the role of forwards?
