@Unco I'm not disagreeing with your comment, just pointing out that Hika wasn't the only player missing from the 23 this weekend.
@Rugger-Quizzes Beaver has only played about 60 games for Waikato. I'm sure he will be involved this year.

Waratahs
Always seemed to me like Beaver's form was heavily tied to his confidence before he left but ever since he came back, he's been consistently awesome. Seems like he stopped giving a shit about the background noise and is just enjoying playing.
@KiwiMurph interesting that he put the chiefs recent scrum ascendency down to Harris though.

Noone watching?
Just not as exciting as the Saders v Landers game. Predictable scoreline & result.
@Billy-Tell said in Chiefs v Waratahs:
On balance this season, I reckon McKenzie > Jordie Barrett.
Not for the ABs but Super Rugby form: Havili > McKenzie

What a great Chiefs try.
Bates is a woeful commentator.
Must have been difficult to find a headset to fit him.
@Stargazer Havili wasnt very good today.
@KiwiMurph It was about "On balance this season", not just today's game.
Chiefs have done well capitalizing on opportunities - less territory, more missed tackles, about the same number of turnovers, but they've made the Tahs pay when they've had chances.
