Brumbies 9 / 6 Chiefs
Chiefs penalty, just inside their own 22… relief for them
Another Chiefs penalty, just inside their own half… too far for Cruden… kick to touch
Brumbies getting a bit desperate atm. Need to calm down and regroup
Penalty Chiefs, almost right in front on the 22.. kick for goal
Eish, stupid penalties being given away by Brumbies
Brumbies 9 / 9 Chiefs
Chiefs looking like they’ve absorbed the early pressure, and setting out to give the Brumbies a hammering.
Brumbies penalty, right on halfway… long range shot for Nic White
Wayyyyyyyyyyyyy short
Chiefs penalty… lucky to get it though, for obstructive running
Tameifuna finished now, needs replacing!!!
Intercept by Lealiifano… try
TMO
Very lucky try, but they all count. Great stuff Brumbies
Chiefs persist with reckless passing and eventually Bumblies grab hold of an intercept to score.
