That’s a good 14 man defensive screen by red

Saders have benefitted from O'Keefe feeling sorry for them , Alaatoa should have had a red, based on last nights red. As usual the refs are going to be inconsistent.

Chiefs might also have bit more puff. DMac OK really apart from early yips and Ngatai wasted at FB, think the Chiefs pack might just end up getting the upper hand.
I'd like to think last night's call was the inconsistency, not the one just now. Red cards should be for real nasty sh.t.

Like a swinging arm to the head you mean? If it was ngatai at the end of it, it could be career over for him.

Goodhue made to look a bit laboured a few times tonight.

Maori Jesus does have dazzling foot work.

Unlucky for the Crusaders after a good rip.

naki · Post by **naki** » Sat Feb 24, 2018 8:46 am

Wtf was Crocket doing there? Just too fat to do anything but fall on the ball?

Marshall Banana · Post by **Marshall Banana** » Sat Feb 24, 2018 8:47 am

Chiefs with Seu at lock = not a strong scrum.

Rugby2023 · Post by **Rugby2023** » Sat Feb 24, 2018 8:47 am

Great scrum.

naki · Post by **naki** » Sat Feb 24, 2018 8:47 am

Good scrum, damn them

Loss of Bird = depowered engine room?

Not if they cover gets injured in the first 5 minutes mate

Chiefs are dangerous on the counter

Brian9848 · Post by **Brian9848** » Sat Feb 24, 2018 8:50 am

Clock keeps going so what are these f**king stoppages in play at nearly every scrum? Every scrum is taking nearly two minutes to complete. Ref farfing about.

Torquemada 1420 · Post by **Torquemada 1420** » Sat Feb 24, 2018 8:50 am

Wow. How many errors from the Saders this half?

Marshall Banana · Post by **Marshall Banana** » Sat Feb 24, 2018 8:51 am

I'm not a Chiefs fan, Kiwias!

WTF are the 'saders doing? Tapping from there? Todd with tits for hands again.

BBB · Post by **BBB** » Sat Feb 24, 2018 8:51 am

Crusaders of all teams taking a quick tap on their own line?

Rugby2023 · Post by **Rugby2023** » Sat Feb 24, 2018 8:51 am

Crusaders should've kept that in the scrum they were going forward, it popped out too quickly. Now on their own line.

naki · Post by **naki** » Sat Feb 24, 2018 8:52 am

Saders back play has fallen apart but we can’t capitalise

naki · Post by **naki** » Sat Feb 24, 2018 8:53 am

Ngatai faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaAaaaaaaaaaAaaaark

They lost Brown after 5 minutes, and Bird after 23 minutes.

They've done very well to hang in here.

Brainless from Taylor.

Loved that pass from Dmac after the Saders lost the ball, has some lovely hands on him.

Sweets players straight in the side and BOK let's them off. Fvck me

Bindi · Post by **Bindi** » Sat Feb 24, 2018 8:55 am

This match reminds me of the Australian conference circa this year. Not a lot of skills.

naki · Post by **naki** » Sat Feb 24, 2018 8:57 am

Cane is the best tackler in the business

Poor quality game compared with last night, so msny errors

Marshall Banana · Post by **Marshall Banana** » Sat Feb 24, 2018 8:58 am

It didn't take long for Nisbo to mix-up Faauli and Wainui...

Crikey. I did rather like that.

Marshall Banana · Post by **Marshall Banana** » Sat Feb 24, 2018 9:01 am

That's on D-Mac.

Rushed out of the defensive line and farked up...

naki · Post by **naki** » Sat Feb 24, 2018 9:03 am

DMac really is a quality 15

Torquemada 1420 · Post by **Torquemada 1420** » Sat Feb 24, 2018 9:04 am

WTF would you kick the ball away to McKenzie?

I see Moli is playing loosehead.

We, AB fans, could really do with him having a good season there.

BBB · Post by **BBB** » Sat Feb 24, 2018 9:05 am

That was horrible from the Chiefs.
