He missed 3 shots at goal , That would have been interesting if he nailed those 7 points.
Yeah - he's a 20 year old rookie playing the best team away from home in a playoff game. He also nailed a 3 pointer near halfway.

Just home from this one. Great performance from Queensland. Real nail biter.
Takeaways for me: Chiefs paid the price for playing PGS ahead of Jacobson. Too many costly errors. And Luke was great when he came on subbing the wrong guy. 3 mom contenders from Chiefs. Finau was it for me. Kept turning up with impact all over the park and in many facets of play. Maybe I won't be only one seeing him as best 6 in NZ now. Brodie was back to his huge engine best. Dmacs handling and kicking were fantastic and held the Chiefs together under siege.
Kudos too to ALB for a lot of valuable touches under pressure and to Emoni Narawa and Shaun Stevenson who showed their skillsets. Was good to be able to see who put in the effort off the ball.
Lynagh impressed me at 10 and Wilson played strongly. Best ever union game from Vunivalu too. Campbell caught the ball well but I thought much of his kicking was poor. Reds front row very strong too. -

Look not bagging the dude just mentioning if he had kicked that 7 points maybe the result would have been different.
Well you can't add missed penalties because the game entirely changes if he kicks the penalty (halfway restart etc).

Even conversions IMO. Different scores paint different pictures. A conversion only really tells if time is up or almost up.
