    The problem with Ratima seems to be his lack of confidence. He was hesitant to clear the ball off the rucks, something which he has never done with the Chiefs. Against a team who is systematically counter rucking, this is a big brake for the team.

    Fucking unreal the doomsdayers on here. It was a shit night for rugby but the boys wanted to play. They are creating a lot of indecision in the opposition defence, they're just fucking up with hands.

    I still think Roigard off the bench is good for us right now. Ratima dealt with a lot of shit that NB shouldn't have allowed as well as the big boys. I'd rather Roigard finish with decent minutes than Rat. Funnychiw quickly everyone has turned on him.

    Second week in a row where the boys have managed the last 20 to come through. They didn't let the game get away in the second half and did the business.
    Jordie and Rieks were superb. They're cart horses in the midfield.

    CammyR. His huge left boot got us out of that last ten. Big booming kicks.

    Fuck the D-Mac hate. He's causing all sorts of shit. He kicked his goals and challenged the line.

    Boys took most of the bombs too. Superb.

    How good does AA look now he has some minutes on the field. So now we have CT, ST, AA and a few others below them.

    I've been harping on for yonks ever since they decided to put Marky Mark on the left his best position is 14. He just beats defenders like nobody's business.

    Not hearing too much of the Razor hate at the moment...

    Sorry, "which is" and not "who is". My AI doesn't function well.

    Only saw 2nd half but I continue to have serious reservations about Jordan at 15.

    Needs to sort out cleaning up a bouncing ball, but he gives us something Beaudy doesn’t from 15.

    What is that something? I don't see it. Certainly isn't decision making.

    Eh, he scores every week.

    Um. Ok.

    Berry getting shit, but I thought the way he reffed the breakdown suited us.

    I was going to post the same thing. A NH ref would have likely meant the breakdown would have been even more of a free-for-all. Berry penalised players for not rolling away more than many other refs would have.

    The worst set of fans I’ve ever sat amongst.

    Outside the stadium in the city in a non rugby capacity, lovely people.

    During a match a horrible set of bastards.
    Good luck to em.

    Kunts.

    I've met some nice ones. Clearly you struck a bad batch. Or I struck a good batch...

    Our best recent performances have been against Ireland. We look in control. Some may say we're in their head. #loveyoureiko

    Start Roigard next week so we can see him against DuPont.

    Antoin will be looking for an autograph.

    He'll have to catch him first

    That Nisbo stat is insane, he’s called 54% of all AB tests.

    I don’t care if Berry is letting stuff go. Ratima needs to assert his authority.

    If he tries to get too in involved , JGP scrags him. That was the forwards job to clean up his ball.

    Jordie Barrett after the card was fucking good too. The dinky shit from the first half was put away and he just carried. Defended really well, and owned the kick off space. His best half hour in a while as well

    I think I might be a bit clouded on DMac by that little fuck around with Jordan. Otherwise he kicked lots and passed in front of his forwards.

    The 2nd half was so good once we went back to 15.

    There's something there. He just has to shed the Harlem globetrotters shit. Of course that might be reflective of the instructions from his coaching team. Certainly the plan is not helping him execute well

    @cgrant He had to contend with some messy shite some caused by Ireland some our own doing.
    He did well - the ref got his stamp on that and Roigard came on
    Ratima made a few errors but by and large played the hand he was dealt as best he could

    Agreed. NB allowed Ireland to attack from the side and beyond the ruck. If Rat picks it up he's clobbered.

    Just needs to keep doing the basics. Pick his time to do the magic. That goes for many in the backline

    At the end Tosi with ball in hand and a grin.
    Pure terminator. What a find.
    I'll be grinning all week until I get to Paris next Friday.

    This may have been mentioned but the obsession with spider cam shots and lack of replays for penalties has been annoying in recent weeks. It makes me appreciate the NZ rugby coverage more.
