Warm Up Match 6: Waikato Chiefs v British & Irish Lions (Hamilton)

[Maverick1987]

He yellow carded the wrong player didn't he ? 1 and 4 came round and tackled the ball carrier in the maul but 6 got binned .....

 

[GoTheNaki]

Now that you're down to 14 men

Idk...... That would probably be a penalty try again...

Oh... Thought you were talking about the ABs. LOL. Aint no Chiefs fan.

 

[Mrs. Peter Quinn]

That would explain the look Black 6 gave the skipper!

 

[MarkyH]

Great try! Didn't like the camerawork, zoomed in to early on Nowell

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Nowell!!!!!!!


Finally a god damn backs try.

 

[big ginger 8]

Nowell this test series has the attacking ability of a gopher in glue.

Make sure to say a lot of bad things about our players on Saturday.

Take him off now and put him on the wing Saturday instead of North !

 

[Penne Rara]

Not bad

 

[TRF Mr Fish]

Please bring on Elliot...

 

[Skylinerd1]

That was a decent try. Credit where its due.

Even a Gopher can make the odd break.....

 

[GoTheNaki]

Hm... Perhaps we start with 14 AB players to give the Lions a try-scoring chance... Haha.

Nah Nowell would be ripped apart by the AB's IMO.

 

[Mrs. Peter Quinn]

That was a backs try for sure but good to see Haskell working getting in first to make that clearout following Henshaw going to ground. Really worked hard to get there or it would have been a penalty for holding on.

Agree. Fantastic in attack, got caught out of the line a few times in defence. Can't afford it against the ABs

 

[Maverick1987]

We are mincing the Chiefs forwards

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Daly is in the 23.

Kicking and covers everywhere.

To be honest I don't get this opinion at all. Nowell had a really bad start to this tour, I think it was partly over excitement and eagerness but he is simply one of the best defensive wingers in the northern hemisphere. He's proven that at international level.

Defensively he is too slow against the wingers the AB have, and has been caught out multiple times.

In the NH the teams don't tend to find space as quickly as they do in NZ.
