Commentary is right to blow up. Awful.

Donsteppa

Should be a cracking second half.

Especially if the Chiefs stop doing dumb stuff, and if the Reds back themselves and pass sensibly.

TMO has one look and says no. Comical.

Doing what the Stan crowd have been asking for: Speed the game up instead of a thousand replays!

That felt like me making a decision from Chiefs country. Nothing to see here, please disperse for half time...

Is McKenzie physically capable of actually putting a shoulder on and not taking the easy option of biting on on a player that’s not already marked?

Just put in a couple of crackers...

Did he really? Had to stop watching for a mo

Has Tyrone Thompson got the worst skill set of any professinal rugby player. Ever. Just a big lump. Ref'ing has been terrible although the commentary sums up Aussie rugby, no wonder they haven't won a bledisloe

Reds assistant coach looks like he should be wearing Kit bloody tall

Yeetyaah

Lord has come off, Sa is on

Bones

Geez just noticed how much chunkier Vaai is looking up top

KiwiMurph

TMO misses another......

Canes4life

Wilson should be sitting down for 10

Yeetyaah

I'm his biggest hater but Roe has been pretty good

Was it that bad? Only caught the one replay and didn't look obvious, almost looked like Quinn was faking it

Quinn got smashed in the jaw by the top of Wilson's big melon

There isn’t a lot of love for Jacobson as an option in the ABs backrow but at least he tackles and hits rucks

I'm leaning towards something like Vaai/Finau, Jacobson, Savea.

Donsteppa

Great maul, if very messy.

Yep, the second one showed Wilson’s fat head clearly connected with Tupaea’s.

Yeetyaah

Oh watch out Carter Gordon is on

Donsteppa

Great last line by DMac

Bones

Still waiting for Dmac to put that shoulder in @jimmyb ?

Canes4life

DMac making bigger hits than Finau.

Ha yeh definitely proven wrong. It’s great to see

Yeetyaah

Crowd full of chicken brains

Canes4life

Reds really failing to capitalise in the red zone. Good d by the Chiefs.

Landers92

Brendon Leonard winding back the clock

Bones

Brendan Leonard take a bow!

Donsteppa

Roe with a great break, and a moronic kick
