Highlanders v Chiefs

[SammyC]

Title winning defense from the Chiefs. <br><br>
Reminds me of crusaders defense early 2000s when we won the comps with 30-40% possession most games.<br><br>
Sam Cane is the new Reuben Thorne 😉

Anyone see a bonus point coming in this game after 80mins?

[Chris B.]

<p>So - if the Chiefs win and the Lions win... the Chiefs get a rematch against the Highlanders next week?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>That might be a bit of a booby prize!  :)</p>

Yes, but not the one for scoring tries

So "the chiefs have come to niggle and distrupt"

<p>Is Sumo a Landers fan? That interview with Joseph was grovelling.</p>

Would be nice if those obstructing Naholo had been penalised instead there.

5-10

[Bones]

Fucking fucking hell this kicking lark is going to give me an embolism.

[Mattasaurus]

Long kick for lima.<br><br>
Dmac so accurate

[taniwharugby]

7-10

[taniwharugby]

TJ or Nisbo (whichever is on Comms) called Faddes Lientjes twice now, since Lientjes has been off

[taniwharugby]

<p>10-8 to the good guys actually.</p>

[taniwharugby]

Little wonder the kiwi sides have higher levels of fitness, games like this with multiple phases, so much movement <br><br>
Some brilliant running rugby and great cover defence, great to watch
