Pretty sure it’s the ABs asked him to swap sides. Ofa and Karl did it earlier in the season

One of the (likely) 5 RWC props will need to cover both sides

Yeetyaah

For fuck sake he needs to switch sides. Fuck what the selectors say.

The results of the experiment appear to be in.

I imagine this will be his last go if it is a request from above

6 0, if only the chiefs could have got a couple of penalties....

From the Chiefs' media release for this game:

Unavailable for selection:
Aidan Ross, Brodie Retallick, Damian McKenzie, Fin Hoeata, Kane Hames, Laghlan McWhannell, Michael Allardice, Mitchell Karpik, Nathan Harris, Reuben O’Neill, Sam Cane, Sam McNicol, Solomon Alaimalo and Tiaan Falcon.

Aiden Ross was the starting LH in all games until last week, except the first game, when Moli got the start. Moli is on the bench for this game

Awful call by the ref there, McKenzie released, someone else was in the ball. Annoying simple calls like that got incorrect

Stargazer

Hmm, not sure whether I agree with that decision. It looked short.

Another week where I thought the TAB was being generous, but this time tipping with the heart looks like being much more dangerous...

Yeetyaah

Duluth

A good half a metre, but given his opposite number stumbled over his own feet like a new borne giraffe, let the try stand.

Half time and the Chiefs look woeful.

Yeetyaah

At the game and Jack Debreczeni is on the ground right in front of me. Has a neck brace on and about 6 medics around him. The golf cart is out to drive him off the field. Dude hasn't moved since he was tackled.

He has no luck with injuries that man. They’ve just shown a shot of him on the cart being taken off, doesn’t look good...

I hope the Chiefs can turn this round in the second half, but the Lions are a quality outfit.

They have been crap all season. Have got a few players back but Chiefs are playing into their hands. Too many mistakes given how poor their scrum is.

Stargazer

Both Lions' tries were a bit dodgy IMO.

With Debreczeni looking like he's suffered a bad injury, the Chiefs stocks for the 10/15 jersey are getting smaller and smaller. Beaver back next week?
