Hi Scrumdown. Seems like they have been more lenient recently up north, think have already seen some high ones in the Six Nations go unpunished according to the new laws and in Pro12 e.g. apparently Ulster got away with a number of these tackles last weekend. Maybe the refs have settled in to how they should be applied or they have made conscious decision to be lenient or they are just being plain inconsistent.
Chiefs get the ground ball and McKenzie scrambles it out for the Chiefs.
Chiefs penalty… just inside their own 22… they are elated.
Seconds to go in the game.
Hooter has gone, another Chiefs penalty, they tap it and then kick out for the bonus point win!

One cannot help but think the Landers threw this one away…
See you on the Reds / Sharks game article… 1st SA interest in Super Rugby 2017!
So, what did you guys think of this game?
2 Away wins in the 1st 2 games… 2 wrong Bru picks by me.
Strange old game… rugby!
Teams need to be clinical and the 1st 2 games have shown that the teams who make the errors, lose!
The next game is in 33 minutes time… chance to make some coffee and grab a breakfast, I suppose.
OK, now over to the next game article… see you just now!
