MP needs to sort lineout out. Costing them dear

MP needs to sort lineout out. Costing them dear

They're up against Darry, who's the best emerging lineout talent in the country imho.

[Insane_Homer]

contact with the head, gone.

[OomStruisbaai]

No ways. No card. He jumped to stop the kick

[Kiwias]

Harsh but inevitable. A badly timed and clumsy charge down attempt.

[OomStruisbaai]

The ref need glasses.

[Kiwias]

The ref need glasses.

TMO too?

[OomStruisbaai]

Terrific defense from the Blues

[OomStruisbaai]

The ref need glasses.

TMO too?

Look like a try to me. He didn't even refer it

[OomStruisbaai]

Another try cancelled.

[OomStruisbaai]

The afternoon games must be much better for the supporters

[Enzedder]

Ioane gives up an intercept pass and then makes a couple of breaks to set up ALB.

7 all after 5 minutes

[Jb1981]

It’s a very fast paced game. Imagine how exhausting it would be without a rest for conversations every couple of minutes so far .

[Gumboot]

Canes ahead 15-13 at HT.

Entertaining first half. More of the same, please.

[Enzedder]

Jordie at 12 is a yes (or a very big maybe) from me. Then again, I reckon he could play anywhare

Yep, he's looking very good at 12.

[Enzedder]

Shit, that try from the Chiefs was all patience. Great support at every breakdown.

Kick is in-off. 23-15

[Kiwias]

Ref could have called a penalty try there for the shoulder charge on Savea by Nankivell

[Gumboot]

Ardie scores a brilliant try.

Chiefs ahead 30-29 with 5 to play.

[Enzedder]

Phew

[Gumboot]

Good game, that.

[Kiwias]

Not good for the nerves

[Torquemada 1420]

Too early for me that one but had Chiefs to sneak it so.....

[Dan54]

Was at game, loved it, bloody enjoyable game. Seemed to be played at 100mph in first half, and team (mainly Canes) took a bit to get into it in 2nd half.
Nothing beats a day at rugby!

[Gumboot]

What did you think of Jordie at 12, Dan?

[Guy Smiley]

Ardie scores a brilliant try.

Chiefs ahead 30-29 with 5 to play.

I’ve caught up with a bit of a highlights package. That try of Ardie’s… well taken and just sheer strength, but why was he so late getting to the breakdown that led to the penalty? He was right there at the start of the play and nowhere at the end of it.

[OomStruisbaai]

I look at the log and see the Aussies at the top. Obviously haven't played NZ teams?

Not sure what you mean, Guy...

Here’s a replay. Ardie is just to the right of the halfback when he box kicks. Watch for when he shows up at the next breakdown…

[Dan54]

What did you think of Jordie at 12, Dan?

Truth is I gave him a pass mark, which is all I would of expected in first game there for a long time. He looked ok defensively, carrued only a couple of times and generally crossed advantage line.
Player who continues to impress me is Sam Cane, shit he was good. was everywhere and doing good stuff. I personally think there daylight between him and other 7s in NZ at moment.

Is Ardie asthmatic? I noticed a number of times he was struggling for breath after seemingly having done nothing just before. He has these bursts of energy though like for that try.. but he is the opposite of Cane who is a human dynamo.. never stops...

[Gumboot]

How's Ardie's vision these days?

And his dental health?

[Grandpa]

Josh Ioane had an encouraging game. Only one game, but looked sharp after that early intercept. Hope the injury isn't too bad...

[Guy Smiley]

Are you worried about his Health Plan?

What am I missing?

He's been critisised numerous times for setting a bad example by not wearing a mouth guard (interferes with his breathing apparently). And he had to start wearing a mask to protect his eyesight prior to RWC 2019, but soon ditched it for...reasons.

Cheers. I never wore a mouthguard either due to vomit reflex if I did!
