Brumbies gave that try away
Chiefs do it and they are still in this game. Still a lot of work to be done to wrap this up but now the gap is manageable.
Brumbies 22 / 17 Chiefs
Bad goalkicking by Cruden again
Who wants this game more?
Crude kicking by Cruden means the gap is 5 points. A Bumblies 3 pointer will mean the Chiefs would have to score twice.
Too easy for the Chiefs now
score????
Try Robbie Robinson, Chiefs… level, kick to come.
TMO asked to rule on possible obstruction
Morning Sports Fans!!
Down to the wire it seems
And the Chiefs hit back hard! Bumblies may be fading….
Try stands!
jip
Is this the end of the Brumbies challenge? I hope not!
Chiefs 24 / 22 Brumbies
Only 2 points… a kick can win or lose the game
Gaps opening up now. Not looking good for the Brumbies
Chiefs penalty on the Brumbies 22…. now bloodywell go for posts
Adam not playing the game – some of these posts taking an age to go through!
Chiefs 27 / 22 Brumbies
@ grootblousmile:Surprised they’re not going for the corner – apparently it’s better to try to keep them pinned down in their own 22 rather than take the points!!!
139 @ Just For Kicks:
Bit slow, but at least we’re still up and running here at R-T
All going wrong for the Brumbies. Amazing what pressure does!
And Cruden puts the Chiefs 5 ahead. Is it game over for the Bumblies and Jake worshippers?
Can the Brumbies pull it out the fire again?
Brumbie need a try badly
5 mins to go and the Bumblies are giving it all they’ve got.
Brumbies not done yet…
Great Chiefs defence… and they earn the penalty
Desperate defence by the Chiefs and a penalty to boot. These guys really deserve the win. Best team in the comp.
