Has Stevenson been injured? How the hell does Trask and Tiatia get selected ahead of him?
Cause they need players who can play multiple positions for when Dmac gets red carded?

15 on 15 the Chiefs looked significantly better than the Reds. The reload on defence was miles faster than Qld and a try was imminent.
Yellow card opens thr space the Reds worked perfectly (their setup was beautiful). Then 13 on 15 and we're having a crack at the Chiefs?
No ball, no field position. Losing thr penalty count. Outnumbered while playing a team better than it's record. This is pretty much expectation
The glee of the Blues fans is a little unbecoming
Oh grab a tissue. The chiefs were playing loose before the cards.
And I was calling the comeback until the Chiefs gave up.

Full credit to both Cheika and Genia for their take on the card ..totally agree ,we are in the entertainment game ..sure it’s in the framework,but there was no serious injury to the player involved ..

He runs as hot and cold as both of them. I suspect he'll be starting next week.
Trask probably has the most potential of the three of them, if he improves his defence.

@kirwan not blaming the ref for the cards. Some penalties have been weird but Chiefs are playing like shit.
You aren’t, but some others are.
They needed to adjust their game plan. Hold the ball for longer.
DMAC will need to change his technique. No jumping up.
Yep, watching it again he went in for a big hit. Took a risk and it didn’t pay off.
He does it with his front on tackling. Just too risky now but a lot harder for small man taking a big man low front on - bigger risk of being bumped off.

Dangerous to rule on the outcome. Especially with head injuries.

Comebacks on. EZ win.
Lulled the Reds into a false sense of security.
Will be hilarious if it happens.

His non tackle on Their winger ruled him out of a 15 jersey for quite some time.

I've watched it about 10 times now and he didn't really jump up, poor technique yep, but I agree with Chieka (WTF is happening) rather than the hysterics that were going on in this thread when it happened. If you just read the thread and didn't watch it then you'd think this had happened:
