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

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Marler not quite pulling a Tana special, but that was completely reckless and stupid move.

What an Idiot.

 

[HenryChinaski]

What a way to rule yourself our of selection for the tests. Utter moron.

 

[saulan]

I feel like I see Stander's name in every match and I also heard that he may be playing with an injury. Shouldn't he be managed rather than just throwing him into every game?

Gatland to call up Jenkins confirmed.

 

[MarkyH]

Marler you muppet!

Henderson quality too. Soo much strength in our 2nd row

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

Nasty enough that. What was the point?!

 

[smartcooky]

Stander collapsed that maul. Should have been a penalty to the Chiefs

Stander collapsed that maul. Should have been a penalty to the Chiefs

He jumped over the top of the bloody thing. Jesus wept these french refs man.

 

[smartcooky]

**** sake, how could he possiblly have rolled away any faster?

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Please he was all over the ball.

 

[smartcooky]

I think we have another short-sighted French ref who needs an appointment at Specsavers

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

More effort?

 

[HenryChinaski]

**** sake, how could he possiblly have rolled away any faster?

I'm continually astounded by you. He has a responsibility to get clear, whether that's through his rolling away or through tackling in such a way as to not fall on the wrong side. His responsibility, and he quite clearly impeded the speed at which ball could be recycled.

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

More effort?

Think it was the fact he was rolling all over the ball to get out of the ruck.

 

[Bluemoon]

Lions will be pleased that the Chiefs are going for three here. They are a man up. Will show they are faltering in the set piece.

 

[smartcooky]

Please he was all over the ball.

How is he supposed to roll away with a Lions player holding his legs?

 

[smartcooky]

Biggar was a long way ahead of the kick at the restart

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

How is he supposed to roll away with a Lions player holding his legs?

Holding his legs, what?

Watch the clip again, he got stuck on the wrong side of the ruck 100% his fault.

 

[MarkyH]

CJ needs to add some variety to his game. I know he's a great carrier but maybe 1 time out of 20 he should look to pass

He's definitely gone better though so far. It helps that he's stopped picking and falling over.
