And the Chiefs lost again. It's now 10 losses in a row in super rugby Aotearoa for the men from Hamilton and 11 consecutive losses in a comp titled ''super rugby''.

That first Crusaders try was incredible, as was the tackle that almost stopped it.
The Fainga'anuku try was brilliant but Scott Robertson would have loved what happened before the try. A strong tackle forcing a knock on, followed by a dominant scrum which led to a penalty and then Crusaders get their chance to pounce.

Another incredible finish to a chiefs game, they don't ever start playing till the 60th minute

Bonus point within 30 minutes for Wales. Italy continue to be pointless.

It doesn't happen often but Wales will be wanting England to win later on.

that was a brilliant game. Feel for quins who were excellent. The premiership is such a good league at the moment, feels like anyone can beat anyone on a given day.

for the inverse reason, I’m wanting France to win :D
I'm going out for a walk instead of watching any more of this. It's fairly grim outside, but not as grim as this :D
I rarely watch games with Italy involved, even England’s

Wouldn't be the biggest rugby fan, but this is a magnificent game to watch.

Love how noone wants to let the ball go dead. Always looking to just keep it going.

Thomas with some magic on the touchline when he could have just let it go out on the full.
That's the plus and minus of Thomas, he takes risks but can do things that almost no one else can. His steps are from an other world.

You have incredible runners among your backs and the back rowers are also very dynamic. It makes little sense for you to not exploit that more.

Drove me fecking mental watching us kick everything away against the Scots and the Welsh. This game, watching us playing running rugby, makes me even more frustrated

Don’t, I’m sick of his negative stewardship. Serious Mourinho vibes
And he’s a pal of SAF!!
FFS Sir Alex should tell him that it’s a game where it should be entertaining...look at France, they never seem to compromise even if they lose the 6 Nations every now and again

Just had a nice nostalgic view of my old school’s playing field as the camera panned above Twickers
