Hurricanes v Chiefs
-
Was at the stadium.
I liked how dominant scrums in this game resulted in turnover scrum rests rather than penalties.
Was this a result of laws that front tower must actually hook? Or is that law being trialled elsewhere?
No idea if these were correct rules, , new rules, or rogue reffing. But I liked it, but am cautious of mexted-style unilateral ignoring of rules you don't like.

Do you mean the rule trialled at U20s at the moment? (4th bullet). If that's the case, that's your answer:
Law trials to be rolled out at U20 Championship -
The guy who does the weekly wrap on the Roar said Ngatai schooled Laumape - didn't see the game myself, is that correct?

Strange comment, Ngatai played well but he hardly made Laumape look bad at any stage. Laumape was well contained - the Chiefs made sure they had 2 - 3 tacklers on him whenever he got the ball, but I don't think you can just put that down to Ngatai. ALB had more of a hand in the strong defense to contain the Canes midfield.
