Nonu beat 10 defenders in this game, which is unreal considering his age. Most players can't even do that once in their careers. It's just not normal for someone to carry their explosiveness for this long.
Karl T was awesome. Loving the scrummaging but also the ball skills and ball carrying of his this season.
Faiane is owning that 13 jersey. Master stroke by Leon to shove him out there. Does so much work every week and is working well with Nonu and the outsides.
Robinson, Tuipulotu and Papali'i were massive again. Papali'i reminds me a bit of a young Kieran, just a do-it-all kind of backrower.
Happy enough with how Otere is tracking now. Just keep the errors down, kick your goals and that will do for now. Nonu and TJ helped out quite a bit with running the backline in this game, but that's OK.
Some of the bench players played well. Jed Brown had a pretty good debut game.
You do know the Blues lost?

@Chester-Draws I didn't watch the game...
I didn't feel like pointing out the negatives. I enjoyed the game.

@taniwharugby I think he was regathering himself. He got rocked from that tackle attempt and seemed a bit dazed.

@Unite He is easily the biggest Chiefs weapon, was in bloody great touch aswell. Hopefully this injury doesn't cause him too much trouble going forward and I hope he recovers in time for the WC. Perfect impact player for us off the bench.

Noooooooooo!
Just when he was getting a decent run at fullback & doing a great job too.
Agreed. He looked as good as ever once he had more room and could choose when to inject himself.

Deep down you know you don’t 😉
Jordie’s stock has now risen from making up the numbers in that 41 to a genuine chance to make the 31
-
@ACT-Crusader nah I'd prefer McKenzie as a fullback replacement. He is deadly against tired defences.
I have always stood by my view that Jordie is a 12 - he isn't bad in other positions but not enough to warrant selection over McKenzie.
-
They need to train these security guards better. I can understand the desire to keep your gaze up, but you need to be focusing on the runners core to determine which way he is going to go

The security guard fell over on purpose it was obvious
