@Tim hard to even get a true gauge on the performances of individuals if the opposition is this poor at travelling away from home
You didn't think the tahs were a chance with all the chiefs injuries?
@Tim said in Chiefs v Waratahs:
The comp has a credibility problem when Aussie teams can't compete in NZ.
It isn’t even the colder months yet either which is when the Aus sides struggle even more. It seems the Aussie teams focus on the Aussie derbies and almost throw the NZ ones away other than the Brumbies.
Is it just me or has Jacomb seemingly gone back in every area since he first hit the scene? Apart from hitting the gym it seems.

Leroy Carter has looked solid at 13 in his last 2-3 games.
Just thinking same thing Vic, looks interesting to where that could go.
The Chiefs best performance and result of the season so far. Lots to like from Sami T, Josh Lord, Bolshier, Finau and Narawa.
Quinn Tupaea was the pick of the bunch though. The best midfielder in New Zealand.

Looks great in the NPC. Always been underwhelmed by him above that level

Yet the Tahs 20 is ringer for Henry Pollock
Do all blonde white people look the same to you? Racist
Sexist as well. But perhaps you mean blond.

Yeah always wondered if I was missing something with the bloke. Like, he's Super Rugby standard, but I haven't been wowed by him so far.

Got overhyped coming through was the issue.
The midfield and Finau at 6 was the best part.
About time Carter is playing 13 regularly - with his weakness under the high ball and promise shown at 13 for BOP it's about time he's had a proper crack there.

A winger, a centre, and a lower level halfback, that's some versatility.

I do not.
