I do like the Bulls attacking structure. Lots of width. With Kriel straightening the attack.

What’s different is that they are actually playing with some endeavour.

Chiefs look better staying close to the ruck than going wide.

Cane looked prop-like pedestrian on that second Bulls try ....

@stargazer

He's an AB, the senior halfback, and has been a Chief since 2014.

But, he's from Hawkes bay, so why am I not surprised to see you white knighting him.

Stargazer

@gt12 I'm not, I agree he's having a mare tonight. He just hasn't played a lot the last 13 months.

ShadowTrooper

Looks like we got our answer BBBR with the bit between his teeth

Stargazer

Yes, Brown gets the try! Great work from the pack there.

antipodean

Amazing what the forward pack can do when they deny their halfback the opportunity to touch the ball.

Gunner

Now, DO NOT LET WEBER make a clearance kick from the kick off

ShadowTrooper

Give me bloody 8 BBBR's and we'll be rocking

@stargazer

Yep, but it’s the decisions and the execution that are miles away. I can forgive execution, but as the guy who must be in charge of driving things around, he should at least make better decisions.

gt12

Umm, ref, player is held?

antipodean

@shadowtrooper And a winger that knows not to run at the sideline but back infield.

A ref that knows what a tackled player is.

7 shades of averageness on the Chiefs bench. Be afraid.

Although Allardice is on, which is probably good.

Stargazer

Who did go off for MMac? Falcon and Dmac are still on the field.

gt12

Fuck me. Chiefs advance and it’s another fucking penalty.

Perhaps not you fucking muppet Allardice. Nice first contribution.

Gunner

Cane and BBBR, well done lads

gt12

Again. Card time?

Another warning, very Japanese.

@stargazer said in Chiefs vs Bulls:

@gt12 I think Cane is also totally lacking. He's the captain and should be a leader, and he isn't.

I think he is a leader. The coach needs to take a hard look in the mirror.

Gunner

Almost more points for the Bulls coming from a poor Chiefs kick.

Lucky

@antipodean Coach can only do much - up to the players to change it up if it is not working out on the field
