Looking like Tribe will now play MP (Moana Pasifika) in Dunners & that'll be the only game this weekend:
www.nzherald.co.nz
Plan B is 'canes v MP (Moana Pasifika) but apparently Loss Bleus & Clan are definite non-starters.
Slight silver lining with Aus border re-open from 12 April giving more time in which to reschedule the matches already postponed & those likely to be postponed in the next few weeks as Omicron peaks then wanes.
Three games postponed as NZ Rugby confirm major Super Rugby changes
All three scheduled Super Rugby matches this week have been postponed.

Ma
makes sense for Chiefs and MP (Moana Pasifika) play their game, means Canes who have fit squad miss out, but at least it only one game MP (Moana Pasifika) have to catch up on!Looking like Tribe will now play MP (Moana Pasifika) in Dunners & that'll be the only game this weekend:

Confirmed that Tribe v MP (Moana Pasifika) will be the only game this week but it'll be at Mount Smart on Saturday (hopefully maybe).

MP (Moana Pasifika) could conquer the world if only three or more of them could do the same thing at the same & right time...

Thinking exactly same Derps, he running backline well, and running at line etc. Enjoying game, MP (Moana Pasifika) have been going well, and a pretty good line up form cobbled together Chiefs team.

Any momentum they get is cut down by penalties.
Although, some of them have been pretty dubious

Bung-eyed Nisbo has NO CLUE who Norris or Burr are or even if in fact they are different people.
I dont care what anyone says, Quinn Tupeaua is in my All Airport XV for a reason and I have not seen anywhere near enough to warrant his removal from such an inauspicious lineup. Nankivell must be thinking how the arse did this guy make the AB's ahead of me ffs

Would NZ picking PGS constitute a poach? Asking for a friend as Dismal would say.

Don't know but he has turned down Fiji, as he reckons he wants to be an AB. By geez he not playing bad at moment. Was interested reading about the flanker Hamilton Burr, came over to nZ because he was getting nowhere in Scotland, and can't believe how much he has learnt. Says the trainings are out of this world, never boring straight line stuff and everyone encouraged to dominate the gap rather than the player.

I do think that was pretty impressive performance by Chiefs, MP (Moana Pasifika) weren't all that bad, there was some good skill level by both teams, but Chiefs were just so much better.
Vai'i is playing bloody well whether at lock or 6, but everyone coming onto field for Chiefs just fitted in seamlessly.They are seriously well coached.

He is becoming undeniable. Appears to have cut out the infuriating titty-handed lapses that used to mar his work.
Who knows if his skill level is right for the drudge and snot and crushing boredom of winning test match rugby against the NH sides which seems to require the forward packs dicking around with their dark arts bullshit until one of them gives away a kickable penalty

He certainly looking the goods, only trouble would be, then he wouldn't be available for the Naki!!
