Chiefs v Reds

[KiwiMurph]

ENS such an improver

[Victor Meldrew]

Red's tactics working in frustrating the Chiefs - the sort of kicking game you want to see from an AB 10.

[antipodean]

Nice kick and regather by ENS.

This game is being defined by errors so far. And the ability to clean out rucks from well offside - especially Vunivalu.

12 - 5

[Victor Meldrew]

Definition of a Rugby Nightmare: ENS & SS in open space.

[antipodean]

Reds definitely winning the kicking game so far. Pity for them their set piece isn't having such a good game of it.

[Mattasaurus]

well taken, but so soft from the Chiefs

And then it does. Good sniping run off the maul by Tate and the Reds score on half time.

[KiwiMurph]

Finau won't want to see that replay.

[Tordah]

12-12 at HT while dominating the set piece like that. Should be ahead by 10 points at least. Frustrating

[Winger]

Chiefs lucky to be level. Reds playing well

[Mattasaurus]

This is the sort of game Josh Ioane seems to play well in .. but he very much is rocks and diamonds...

[antipodean]

Big question is will the Reds have their traditional second half slump?

[KiwiMurph]

Reds bossed that

[antipodean]

Chiefs missing Cane and Samisoni.

And Brodie

[antipodean]

DMac showing what he can do with time and space. The sort afforded a fullback.

[NTA]

Prediction: Reds to implode

[Stargazer]

Ioane replacing Stevenson.

[KiwiMurph]

Perhaps Stevenson's least impactful game this season. Contained.

You have to wonder why the Chiefs aren't challenging the Reds lineout in the 22. Their maul defence has been pretty useless but they've been so successful at disrupting the delivery when they've attempted to do so.
