Good seeing DMac at FULLBACK, Chiefs...

Amen to that

[ACT Crusader]

No try. Knee hits ground and then he gets picked up again and scores.

@billy-tell Crotty is solid, if healthy, I cant see him losing his place unless injured. Goodhue might have to wait.

Apart from a couple of early handling errors ALB has been very good in his lines, linking and distribution. Almost Conrad Smith like. Can see no reason other than experimentation to change him out.

[Virgil]

Not a bad 2nd half, 44-0 to the Men in Black

[Tim]

Clear no try.

Ref has been good except for failing to use the TMO.

[Kirwan]

Ref is going to cringe on a few of these decisions.

[broughie]

So what did the Fat Bastard do to early the captaincy?

[ShadowTrooper]

@act-crusader How many times have we seen that though (not sying that it is right)

No try. Kind of a bullshit decision actually. And just for once Marshall knows the applicable law.

[kev]

Pace of game told. YC added to momentum and added some margin. ABs should kick less or better.

[Wally]

9 of the 23 from 4 schools

Not many I’d say.

[Hooroo]

I am really liking our blindside flanker at the moment. Solid as fuck.

DMac is the perfect super sub

Forwards got a good workout from the French tonight.

[Stargazer]

Final score: 52 - 11. Flattering the ABs, due to some dodgy calls. Well-deserved win though; no doubt they earned it.

[broughie]

@crucial ALB has some dropsies but he was not too bad. Always seems to make yards. First test jitters.

[kiwiinmelb]

Some nice impact off the bench , been lacking in that area the last couple of years

[Tim]

How did the Blues miss Karl Tu'inukuafe? Hanks must be useless.

This post is deleted!

[MrDenmore]

The yellow card decision was ropy, but would it have reversed the eventual outcome? An emphatic NO.

First time I've seen it 5 metres out
