Lots of good decisions well executed.

That's what's impressed me. So easy to try the fancy shit when your forward pack is dominant and you have Aaron Smith at 9 - he's kept his feet on the ground.

[antipodean]

Li hurls the ball away again. If he was in my team I'd have thumped the prick by now.

[antipodean]

This is looking terrible for the Sunwolves.

52 - 0 with 15 mins to go

Known as "Doing a Nonu" in Toulon after Chris Aston showed a similar skillset....

[Chris]

Faddes mmmm Allblack Nahhhhh

[Stargazer]

Looks forward to me.

[Stargazer]

Some great passing skills there from the Landers ...

[Stargazer]

Oh oh, Gatland broken? Who are the Landers playing next week? McClutchie might get some game time if Banks isn't back by then.

[antipodean]

@Stargazer didn't look good did it? Ankle perhaps?

[Stargazer]

@antipodean Yeah, looked like his ankle. Bad enough to not being able to limp off the field by himself.

[Chris]

@Stargazer Chiefs

[Stargazer]

@Chris Geez, a derby. I hoped for an Aussie team. Tough ask for a 19-year-old rookie who has only been with the team for a few weeks by then. They may keep Ioane on the field for the full 80, if possible.

FT: 52 - 0 to the Highlanders

Not as bad as it could have been, but still a big hiding.

[MajorRage]

Looking at the tables ... does this take the Clan from 13th to 5th? Temporarily of course, but that is still a massive jump

[Stargazer]

@MajorRage Yes, 5th to 14th are really close. Basically everyone - except the Sunwolves - is still playing for a spot in the finals.
