<p>Not sure I agree with this part of the article:</p>

I'm not so sure. Would not at all be happy with 4 years of whiney opposition telling us we won because we cheated..especially if they had a point! -

<p>I love hearing a good whine! It just elevates my smugness levels</p> -
<p>Just re-watched the game.</p>
<p>Aside from his kicking Barrett was on fire, and left Cruds in the shadows.</p>
<p>Without Ngatai's organisation in midfield the Chiefs suffered.</p>
<p>On a number of occasions Barrett attacked the weak inside shoulder of Cruden and found space - especially glaring in the Woodward non-try where he wrong-footed Cruds from the ruck, and gassed him.</p>
<p>Chiefs need to fix this.</p> -

<p>How has he handled this badly? He hasn't said a word until defending himself from being called a cheat and liar by an organisation that they cooperate with on a regular basis and had every opportunity to get both sides of the story before riling up shit with their piece the other day.</p>
<p>If I was Rennie I would be pissed off too.</p>
<p>He has fronted up and explained the bits that weren't in the story along with clarifying what actually was happening during the exchanges between trainers and game managers etc instead of everyone guessing.</p>
<p>What else was he meant to do? Jump to the media with a pre-emptive explanation? That would have certainly attracted accusations of getting your excuses in early.</p>

<p>He should have kept his cool. He didn't. If the Chiefs are entirely clean on this front there is no need to get angry. So if he had calmly explained again that the prop was injured and we have never had this situation before then it would all have died down. Now I do wonder. Just maybe they wanted uncontested scrums</p>
<p> </p>
<p>But even if they did these are the rules now. Maybe other teams should use this tactic in situations like the Chiefs were in. Go down to 14 men and just hang in there edit and the rule is much better now. where teams have to go down to 14 men. Whereas before it sucked</p> -

Lovely to watch

<p>That's a nice way to start. Great line, straight running at pace.</p>

<p>Ummm, either you guys are just watching the Canes v the Chiefs for the first time almost a week late, or you haven't realised the Chiefs v Sharks game thread is here . . . <a data-ipb='nomediaparse' href='http://www.daimenhutchison.com/rugby/index.php/topic/41960-chiefs-v-sharks/'>http://www.daimenhutchison.com/rugby/index.php/topic/41960-chiefs-v-sharks/</a></p>
