@African-Monkey nah Blues fans need something to gripe about and the Chiefs need a win so would be great.

I can’t believe I’m writing this, but I want BB to cut us up (at least a little bit) - if he is still a world class 10 he should Be able to make this Chiefs team look a bit silly (at times). NZ rugby will be in a better place if he suddenly turns his form around. Hopefully he’ll drive his team around a bit and show that he should be left at 10.

Best case, he plays really well and we sneak a win based on a late Cruden droppie.

Cue Beauds having an absolute shitter.

He hasn't exactly shone when moving to 10 the last couple of second halves...

Weird 6 and 7 for the blues. Would've thought they would want to minimise disruption when Lamborn comes on after 5 minutes.

I don't have any problem with Papali'i at 7, so nothing weird there.
What is weird is Gibson at 6 ...
It would have been more logic to have Papali'i at 6 and Gibson (or Lamborn) at 7.

Gold plated?

According to Sky, Papalii had made the most tackles (66) going into this game.

Tim

50th game for Gibson, unless he breaks before kickoff.

He’s out there, at 7. That’s taken a while...

Tim

Great clearance.

junior

Great hands, great line

Tim

A rather large gap.

Yeetyaah

McKenzie running backwards 🙄

Who the fuck is in charge of the backline defense?

Looks like it’ll be a long day. That was a cracking try, but some pretty poor communication from the Chiefs midfield/three quarters.
