I will be watching live at 8am and then heading out for all you can eat Brazilian BBQ brunch.

So tempted to make inappropriate friday afternoon comments about smooth juicy meat. But I won't.

Quite pleased that I wasn't the only one thinking along those lines. Not sure that is any better though.

Hooroo

Cracking start for the Chiefs!!!

nzzp

Jags look up for this. Very physical

KiwiMurph

That was Blues/Tahs Ta'avao rather than Chiefs Ta'avao.

gt12

Fucking hell Ta’avao, wtf was that?

gt12

Omg, I don’t think there has been a completed tackle made by the Chiefs yet.

Chiefs look like a team that squeaked into final, jags look like they deserve to be there

Yeetyaah

Anyone see the ball boy throw another ball on to the pitch when the Chiefs were in the scrum? Stevenson threw it back off the field. They trying to put the Chiefs off?

KiwiMurph

Harris is having a shocker.

Canes4life

@Yeetyaah Football tactics right there. Another mistake by Harris, poor start by him.

Stargazer

@Yeetyaah Yeah, I saw that. If it happens a 2nd time, I'll start thinking it happens on purpose. A one-off is just a mistake from a ball boy.

@KiwiMurph agree, no relation ..that’s why I would have Coltman every day of the week..much more accurate on the tackle..

Stargazer

@Steven-Harris Not based on last night's performance though. I'd prefer Makalio.

Stargazer

Try!!! All credit to Brad Weber!!!

gt12

Ooooooh, no advantage there.

Canes4life

@gt12 piss poor call from Jackson there.

Yeetyaah

What were they crowd complaining about?

Stargazer

@KiwiMurph You'd have a better alternative? Parsons?

KiwiMurph

@Yeetyaah Brodie's knock on advantage not coming back.

Canes4life

@Stargazer Aumua has been very solid without being spectacular but I think his time will come after the WC.

Yeetyaah

@KiwiMurph Jags just booted it straight after though. Usually that would be advantage over?

I wouldn't have Parsons at the Blues let alone the ABs.

I'd suggest Coltman would look pretty good playing in the Saders pack too.....

Stargazer

@KiwiMurph Hahaha. That over-used "Crusaders pack" excuse again. It never gets old aye?

I thought the call was 50:50. Booted the ball forward 30m or so and put other team under pressure. Marginal either way.

Jags chase properly and chiefs would have been in trouble. Ref has to call it as he sees it, not with the benefit of hindsight.

I think Coltman had a great game around the paddock last night and to be absolutely fair he’s been superb in the last few weeks..it would be easy to try assess his lineout throwing last night but just remember who the Saders had in the lineout Whitelock,Barrett and Read..a battery of All Black jumpers..
Coltman should be the 3rd hooker like Weber should be 3rd halfback..for the RWC

Cut out these drop balls and forward passes and we’d have plenty of points.
