Crusaders vs Chiefs

[gt12]

My god. It’s going to get ugly.

[Tim]

Chiefs look pretty unprepared ...

The new ruck laws suck ass.

[gt12]

Cane!!

[gt12]

Good pass from Dmac and a great dummy from Cane. Good try.

[Tim]

Nice ball to Cane from DMac. Weak defence, especially from Bridge.

[Tim]

Yellow or Red?

[Tim]

Firm stiff arm to the head is a yellow now. Will keep that in mind.

[Paekakboyz]

Only if your target ducks!

[African Monkey]

Crusaders fringe defence has been unusually dodgy so far.

[Tim]

So far this year there seems to be no enforcement of the attacking team diving over rucks or taking players out in front of the ruck.

[gt12]

Go to the corner. We’re not good enough to win by threes.

[Tim]

Taufua off for a prop.

[Steven Harris]

Real inconsistent given that we saw Higginbotham get drilled with a Red Card last night ,he also tried to argue that the player he was tackling was falling down, for a moment there I thought nothing was going to be done,I suspect the call came from the TMO.

[African Monkey]

@steven-harris Yes, O'Keeffe was only gonna give it a penalty. Lucky not to be a red.

[Tim]

Surely that was a deliberate knock down, and hence a yellow card?

[gt12]

Alaimalo!

Good leg drive and he’s in!

[Tim]

@steven-harris Yep, call came from TMO.

[Tim]

@gt12 He's looked dangerous tonight.

[Tim]

Two advantages for high tackles in the lead up there. Crusaders giving away a lot of penalties in the last 10.

[chimoaus]

Chiefs will be happy with that considering their start.
