Hurricanes v Chiefs
-
@stargazer that's a really big call. Agree that Taylor has improved, no doubt due to more minutes for the ABs. But if they are both fit I'd be starting Coles with Taylor off the bench. Kind of a moot point as I have no idea when Coles will be back, and we are looking for a back up to Taylor.

Alaimalo may not have scored tonight, but everything he's done has been positive.
-
@antipodean He's a ball hog though. Doesn't know when to pass.
-
@dingo just to add - I don't quite see it in RR. He seems to be one of those players that plays below his size at the moment, doesn't seem to hit as hard as he should. But is starting to bring back the skill set we saw in his first season nicely.

Seems to be a Chiefs disease...

Yeah, don't disagree but I think the selections they might make with the RWC in 2019 knowing Coles isn't the force he was might be different. Go for the good enough bench sitting replacement versus the guy who will be awesome in the 2023 RWC.

Fucking Chiefs backs. As organised as a herd of cats
They're as organised as their first five allows. Dmac is too much like a headless chook.
