Crusaders vs Chiefs

[Tim]

@chimoaus Harris's throwing has been poor so far. Early days though.

Laulala looking good, and Messam has more energy than last year.

[Tim]

100% a card there.

[JayCee]

That break by ngatai shows why he should be playing 12

[Tim]

Never they let the Chiefs player release?

[KiwiMurph]

Bird off injured looked a shoulder.

[Nepia]

Should have taken the 3 rather than scrum.

Cane got a knock on call against him when the Crusaders player tackled him off the ball into it the “eagle eyed O’Keefe” missed that one.

When did Havilli add a new name? Is it a hyphen?

[Tim]

Looked like a knock on.

[gt12]

My god. It’s going to get ugly.

[Tim]

Chiefs look pretty unprepared ...

The new ruck laws suck ass.

[gt12]

Cane!!

[gt12]

Good pass from Dmac and a great dummy from Cane. Good try.

[Tim]

Nice ball to Cane from DMac. Weak defence, especially from Bridge.

[Tim]

Yellow or Red?

[Tim]

Firm stiff arm to the head is a yellow now. Will keep that in mind.

[Paekakboyz]

Only if your target ducks!

[African Monkey]

Crusaders fringe defence has been unusually dodgy so far.

[Tim]

So far this year there seems to be no enforcement of the attacking team diving over rucks or taking players out in front of the ruck.

[gt12]

Go to the corner. We’re not good enough to win by threes.

[Tim]

Taufua off for a prop.

[Steven Harris]

Real inconsistent given that we saw Higginbotham get drilled with a Red Card last night ,he also tried to argue that the player he was tackling was falling down, for a moment there I thought nothing was going to be done,I suspect the call came from the TMO.
