Inevitably going to happen at least once you'd have to think, Smith will probably have to cover a bit more than usual but Lee-Lo's defence has been solid this season, but nothing can dispute that size and power advantage of SBW.
Yeah he's been strong for the Chiefs, at one point I was feeling like he would be a better fit for the ABs ahead of Pulu BUT Pulu had an amazing match last week so I'm not sure, experience would make me choose Pulu ahead of Weber but there's no denying that Weber has had the better overall season.
Another thing is the Chiefs will be chasing points - they have to beat the Canes by 37 points to get a home semi, that might make them get a bit stuck - but the Canes have no motivation to win as such, I dunno. Lets watch.
Yep, the Canes already targeting that - let's hope he can get it in order otherwise could be a scrappy one for them, Jane looking like he's in for a goodie too.
You probably have to throw that theory out the window in a game with well neutral grounding is the best way to put it.
Brad Weber is trying to outplay Pulu instead of playing his own game. Specifically he is trying to run it himself instead of distributing it.
Chiefs are just looking scrappy in general, apart from the intercept try, nothing special BUT if the Canes can't sort their lineout out we won't win.
Needed that, I was screaming no arms well before anyone started to pick up on that. That could change the momentum. Milner-Skudder!! what an offload.
The Cane's 10 is completely outplaying McKenzie. C'mon chiefs. And hopefully Lowe gets taken off the field.
Yep pretty scrappy still. Chiefs probably a lil unlucky to be losing given how poorly our lineout has been but you'd have to say that yellow swung things. If our lineout can be rectified, you'd have to say the Canes may just win it from here, if not well it's probably the Chiefs. In for a good 2nd. I can't see the Chiefs winning by 37 now however so looks like the Landers will host the Chiefs which is good for the Landers' region.
Yeah as I said previously, Marshall has been solid this season. I feel he plays better at 10 than FB too, especially when Barrett's out.
