QF - Chiefs v Reds

@Stockcar86 said in QF - Chiefs v Reds:

The backline looks well drilled and it's great to see them drawing and passing like they are. It's generally been a lost art in NZ for a while now.

I'd love to see their patterns against a good rush defence. I reckon they would go well.

And DM has gone to another level at 10.

[Machpants]

Comprehensive, great game from a lot of chiefs.

Maybe.. doesn't make for a watchable finals series now though, sadly.

Did you lose some kind of bet on this so your only solution to feel better is to come in here and belittle the game of rugby and the super rugby finals series? 😂

Again, change the channel if it’s making you feel as negative as you’re coming across.

If Chiefs still had BBBR they could have gone all the way this year.

[SBW1]

Great result, Reds had a pretty good season and probably one of the most improved sides in the competition.

[Canes4life]

@pakman they can still go all the way…

I'm happy with underdog status at this point

The reports of Taukei'aho's demise have been greatly exaggerated.

As sure as the sun will rise tomorrow, AB’s will be written off based on early-mid super season form.

[Gunner]

Great first 20 off from the Chiefs, I half switched off after the Chiefs went up 28 zip, but while I was engaged DMac, Samisoni, Finau impressed me the most

If the crusaders still had mounga...

Too right. Bell, Grace, Blackadder, Lio-Willie, Hotham, Havili, McLeod, Aumua. All cast aside, but not for the ABs!

[MiketheSnow]

Only one side ever in that

DMac looked very comfortable

[antipodean]

Just watched on delay after getting home from work drinks. Deserved win to the Chiefs after dominating spell in the first 25mins.

Players the AB coaches would've been watching who did their cause no harm at all were Taukei'aho, Vaa'i , Finau, Sititi, Ratima, ALB and ENS.

[antipodean]

Also nice to see them recognise Sam Cane in the manner they did. Clearly respected and loved by Chiefs players.

Hope Razor is watching Finau

Pick any of your top 3 in any position, Razor.

Wallabies won't get within 20

I'm interested in tier 1 opposition

You won't get it here

you will if it is spelt "tear one here"...

[Old Samurai Jack]

I love watching the Chiefs team when they are on song. This is tempered by the Waikato region, the Tron, and the vile bogan supporters here on the fern and in the stands.
DMac, Samisoni, Finau, ALB, and Jacobson were superb.

[Machpants]

I was not impressed with ALB's two intercepts, taking too many steps before kick pass and a unneeded no look pass. A better team, especially an international team, would not be squandering those opportunities. Just poor decisions

[cgrant]

Sititi was outstanding. Great work rate, power and pace. Missed one easy tackle in the second spell but he was my MOTM.

[ploughboy]

huge defensive effort by the chiefs. 11 players with ten or more tackles (LJ with 22) with those players missing 11 between them(finau with 4)
