20-19 Chiefs.

Excellent 2nd half and great game overall. Really enjoyed it. Think it's the right result as the Chiefs really work hard to hold on there at the end. Saders looked a little toothless in attack, baring individual breaks, especially compared to last week.

Saders continuity hasn't been great today. It's hard to see them holding on to the ball long enough to work themselves into a winning position.

Yeah he really snatched at that drop goal attempt.

Cruden finally blots his copybook for this game, could be a crucial error.

Excellent by Dagg to score that one. Thought it was all over when the Saders threw the intercept try.

What a great individual try.

Chiefs really back in this one now. Pretty exciting game so far.

Saders are slowly but surely racking up the points from the boot. A try on top and it's won't exactly be panic stations for the Chiefs but certainly worrying.

Great start by the Chiefs in the first few minutes but no points to show for it. Tap was the wrong decision and nothing came of it. Saders coming back into it but didn't need as much effort for their first 3 pointer. Those stupid cow bells, during the kicks, might make me switch allegiance to...

I hate that players are also more and more asking referees about yellow cards. Some people don't like him, but many referees could learn a thing or two from Nigel Owens about handling back chat from players.

I totally agree on this. I've grown up with a father who's pretty level headed and even handed in all things except when it comes to sports officiating. Any time we watch a game together, especially on TV, my dad has already decided before kick-off that the officials are against us. Us being...

The only time I remember there being a potential problem with booing was before the Ireland v England game at Croke Park. But then afterwards everyone was wondering what the hell they were worried about. The only time I've been at an Ireland game and there's been booing was Ireland v Wales in...

Yeah I hope Racing make a real go of it this year. They always seem to be good for the openers but have faded, like other French teams, towards the end of the pool stage. I actually said Clermont were the champions, obviously a bit of a brain fart, as they lost out to Toulon. I think looking...

Looking at the opening fixtures I'm most excited about Ulster v Leicester as that will be a real tussle for early group dominance. Both teams seem to be just off being real contenders in recent years and it's just a little bit extra they need to take the extra step. The other one is Racing v...

On the Earls front I just hope he has a settle position for the season and stays injury free. He's a proven threat on the wing, but has a lot of work to do at 13. If he focuses on one position he could have a real crack at a regular Ireland spot be that wear 11 or 13. But until his...

How about for the stubby cooler: Drink what's in front of you

Northampton really got screwed with their fixtures for round 1. 2 away games in the same day. Haven't looked at the official fixture list but I assume that it should be Osprey v Leinster for the 2nd game in round 1/pool 1.

Don't know the guy from Adam as I have absolutely no interest what so ever in league. But if he's good enough for the Blues or someone else to offer him a contract then I don't see a problem with it. Many people on here bemoan the fact that rugby in Aus loses out to League in ratings...

Personally I prefer a captain who wears his heart on his sleeve. There's nothing worse than listening to an interview from a captain/coach (ala Declan Kidney) who just runs out the same old stock phrases. They manage to talk for 5 minutes without actually saying anything. Moments like...
