Another razzle dazzle performance by the Chiefs. Athletes in every position. Slicing open defenses but also doing the dirty work exceptionally well 💥
Awesome game Cheers from cape town,
Everyone are playing so well as a team Damian kicking has been spot on tonight and again showing the way inside his 22 to spark a long range attack leading to a try. and a short chip over the top bamboozled the defence for yet another. Back at 10 tonight to pass a milestone, highest points record for the Chief's. Well done Damian & team. Don't care that some people have their doubts about him They can't leave him out of the All Blacks he's too good a player and in great form.
Loss of Sevu can now be replaced by Narawa.
If we are talking form and performance then surely D-Mac has one arm in the sleeve of the ABs 10 jersey.

Year of the Chiefs for sure

Chiefs are different gravy this season. The ABs have selection headaches (lucky them) with DMAC, ALB, Stevenson and Weber just to name a few. All the talk for the WC seems to be Ireland and France, but you can't EVER dismiss the ABs - The Boks can also beat anyone and Aus could be dark horses later this year. It's going to be so competitive with four or perhaps five teams who can realistically win it. I f*cking love rugby.
Clayton proving again to be our best coach. Well done.

Canadian rugby fan here. i have a question for NZ fans. Why is attendance so seemingly low at Super Rugby matches? I know in AUS it isn't great because NRL and AFL are so popular there, but I would've assumed much stronger turnout than what I see at matches held in NZ. Maybe some of it is perception, as the stadiums are quite large. It does seem less than when I first started following SR years ago though. Am I totally out to lunch? if not, what are the reasons for this?

Last week at the Chief's home in Hamilton it was a full house .. so it's not always small crowds. I guess pay TV doesn't help as you can watch from the comfort of your home. There is so much sport on rugby has to compete with everything else. Let's not forget the cost of living in NZ is crippling for a lot of people and many I guess can't afford tickets for the family, fuel costs etc.

@@nzrockdj Really appreciate this response! Yeah, some games are absolutely more full than others. I do remember reading that NZ tends to have their teams play in larger stadiums than say the English premiership, which gives the perception of lots of empty seats. I always find the disconnect between attendance at Six Nations and TRC and the attendance at club competition games so interesting. Like, Six Nations has one of the highest average attendances in all of world sport. I guess nothing puts bums in seats more than a good nationalistic rivalry! haha. Anyways, thanks! Appreciate it.

I KNOW the Chiefs play above the level where they could contest the Ranfurly shield, but with performances like that, I was thinking they could win the triple like Auckland did the year they did it before I realized what I was thinking about COULDN'T BE DONE. But that's what they look like to me: not JUST a team that could win Super Rugby undefeated but a team that, if they could contest it, take out the shield NO RISK. They're that good this year.
