<p>you don't have to, SANZAR are the ones the Chiefs had to convince, and they obviously did.</p> -
<p>As long as we can all accept that it was gamesmanship then I'm happy to move on... :)</p>

<p>And risk conceding a penalty for each collapsed scrum. Fisi'ihoi was struggling in practice against the Chiefs LHs, and most people know the Chiefs' scrum hasn't been that good this season.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Perhaps they don't rate the Rebels scrum/reserve props as highly.</p> -

Probably more a case of not wanting to look too deeply in case they opened a Pandora's box! -

<p>just like josh honeck with the highlanders earlier in the season. went to golden oldie scrums because he was not a loosehead but he has started last two games there</p>

<p>Exactly! If you want to point the finger at Rennie and the Chiefs, the same applies to Joseph and the Highlanders.</p> -

<p>I've got no great problem with that. I just wish Rennie wouldn't keep making baby Jesus cry with his lies. </p> -

<p>Has Fisi'ihoi even played this season? My impression of him was that he was a professional bench warmer, so they might not even plan on giving him any minutes.</p> -
<p>strung some good phases together and Taimanivalu steps through the defence for the 1st try</p>
-
<p>7-3 after 12</p>
-
<p>Harris in...although TMO</p>
-
<p>looks good</p>
