A Chiefs player down and receiving a lot of attention to the knee, Sam Henwood!

5m Scrum for the Chiefs… putting huge pressure on the Blues!

Blues very kickable penalty… shot it is to get within the 7-point losing margin.

Time already up on the clock

OK, about an hour and 20 minutes to go till the next game.

Just enough time to go buy 10 cubic Metres of Concrete “Builders Blend”, 50 bags of cement and 1 more 3m lintel… and to then go to the building site quickly!
