Chiefs v Rebels

[Stargazer]

Good shift from Thompson.

[Yeetyaah]

Malimali's first passage and he bombs a defensive read

[KiwiMurph]

I wonder if Chiefs don't bring DMac on and will argue its still a rest week given he presumably didn't train all week?

[Bones]

Stevenson tackled by a guy already on the ground and the ref calls knock on. That couldn't have been more blatant.

[taniwharugby]

@antipodean will slot nicely into McLeods d-line

[Yeetyaah]

Must be 20 handling errors per side

[KiwiMurph]

Good game from Ratima today.

[Bones]

@KiwiMurph thought he was a bit rough to start - was playing like he had just come on in the second half, but definitely got better.

[Derpus]

Even the comms struggling to find things to talk about.

[antipodean]

FFS ref. Play on without him.

[Yeetyaah]

Dmac on

[antipodean]

"No, no, no... he's good"

How are players supposed to respond to that rubbish?

[Steven Harris]

Well deserved from the Rebels ,have’nt had a lot of luck ,just need to be patient when the opportunity arises ..Skipper Brad Wilkin is a very good player
Leading turnover 7

[Bones]

Cool to see Italians coming over and making a good fist of super rugby.

[Steven Harris]

Chiefs tighthead went straight onto his knee under pressure ..AR must have must have been looking at the crowd

Rebel's THP was unfairly penalised in the first half for not staying straight while the Chiefs walked around.

Can't say this is a great display of refereeing.

[KiwiMurph]

No bonus point.

[Duluth]

Rebels attack is a lot better than recent years. They used to struggle to get a try a match. This year they’ve scored 27, 33, 34, 25

[antipodean]

Concerns about the Chiefs resting 800 of their ABs comes to naught.

Rebels have some talent but individual errors kill their ability to make the scoreboard display any benefit.

[Steven Harris]

@antipodean at the end of the day the better team won but from a neutral the Rebels got most of the shite calls from the official definitely not consistant
