Chiefs v Bulls
-
A frustrating game to be at as the Chiefs couldn't catch a pass in the 1st half so never put the Bulls under any pressure. When they did string some phases together the Bulls were struggling to keep up but that didn't happen often enough. A little better in the 2nd half but a very average performance in all. The Bulls should also get some credit as they played an expansive game.
The concern now will be the health of Cane and Laulala, and Nonu Jr has been cited. The midfield stocks are thin enough at the moment.
Speaking of Fa'auli, he shot out of the defensive line twice early on and missed both tackles. Still very green at this level but I'm not sure Beaver's old legs are good enough to last with regular games.
And I agree with @cheetahsBO , the Stormers at Newlands won't be easy. The Chiefs will have to play much better to win that game.

Thought TKB was outstanding. And I was a little surprised how crisp was his passing, which I havent seem historically as a strength. It would appear that last year he was still feeling after effects of the horrible injury.
For me a man Id want in 23 for Lions -- can't afford to let leaving cosiderations blur the imperative of a series victory! -
