Chiefs penalty advantage as Damian McKenzie is shouldered whilst in the air… nasty collision…

Penalty it is.
32

Chiefs have a huge mountain to climb in the last 30 minutes…
33

grootblousmile on 13 April 2018 at 11:00 am

Chiefs come very close… then a forward bump-pass by McKenzie… back for a 5m Chiefs penalty… popped into the corner for the 5m lineout.
34

grootblousmile on 13 April 2018 at 11:01 am

Try Lachlan Boshier, Chiefs, near left corner.
35

grootblousmile on 13 April 2018 at 11:02 am

Hurricanes 22 / 13 Chiefs
36

Charlie Ngatai almost right through for the Canes on the counter… a last desperate tackle takes him into touch…
37

grootblousmile on 13 April 2018 at 11:05 am

Canes penalty inside their own 22 and a great touchfinder… to take play to halfway.
38

grootblousmile on 13 April 2018 at 11:05 am

9 Points in it… 18 Minutes to go.
39

grootblousmile on 13 April 2018 at 11:08 am

High-paced game… great game to watch, because anything could happen either way at any second…
40

grootblousmile on 13 April 2018 at 11:09 am

15 Minutes to go in the match…
41

grootblousmile on 13 April 2018 at 11:10 am

Chiefs scrum penalty, after a very strong scrum by them, on their own 22.
42

grootblousmile on 13 April 2018 at 11:12 am

Chiefs attack… and it looked good… till a missed catch which went forward…
43

grootblousmile on 13 April 2018 at 11:13 am

Excellent touchfinder by Damian McKenzie… but of course the lineout will be Canes ball…
44

grootblousmile on 13 April 2018 at 11:18 am

Time is fast ticking away for the Chiefs…

I recon the Canes have done enough to take the win…

8 Minutes to go, the deficit is 9 points.

So, 2 scores at least needed by the Chiefs.
45

grootblousmile on 13 April 2018 at 11:21 am

Retallick knocks, on about the Canes 22… vital Chiefs chance goes pot…
46

grootblousmile on 13 April 2018 at 11:22 am

Not a high-scoring game… but you cannot wish for a more entertaining game of rugby.

It is non-stop action…
47

grootblousmile on 13 April 2018 at 11:23 am

4 Minutes to go in the match….

Canes penalty, just outside their own 10m line…
48

grootblousmile on 13 April 2018 at 11:24 am

Canes can just ease this game out and away from the Chiefs from this possession….

Just need the Chiefs to score a penalty or unconverted try. Need a points margin boost this weekend on my Superbru.

grootblousmile on 13 April 2018 at 11:24 am

Chiefs scrum…. this is their last chance saloon…

grootblousmile on 13 April 2018 at 11:27 am

Canes penalty… and they take the shot at goal…
54

grootblousmile on 13 April 2018 at 11:28 am

Canes win by 12.
