You'd pick him above both Barretts? Considering you don't need him to kick. Although since Goodhue cut his mullet, there does seem to be a mullet spot opening up.
@@samgeorgia7358 I reckon based on form he deserves a spot. Same with Jordie. Would be a tough choice. Reckon Sevu Reece is definitely out of the side, so maybe Jordie 14 and a toss of McKenzie vs Will Jordan at 15?
@@ramzi3146 Yeah - or maybe more Jordan to 13 now Goodhue is injured. I never thought Jordie looked good on the wing though. You not thinking this 10 at fullback bant is gonna be a thing anymore, cause otherwise you've gotta throw beauden into the mix.
Mmm, defensively New Zealand teams are not that good this year. I think they would struggle playing a team who's strength is defence and not just attack attack.
@@onskyk Nah it's not even close. Northern hemisphere clubs woul dhave rings run around them. With national teams, it's a different story, but the depth in NZ is what makes it special. If the 5 Super Rugby teams were spread across all 4 pools of the world cup, at least 4 would make it to the quarters and the 5th would be a decent shout too if they avoided England or SA in the pool as well.
@@onskyk their defense seems weaker against other SR Aotearoa teams but that's because they are subjected to such an aggressive offense. They would crush NH teams.
@@onskyk .......That’s an ongoing northern hemisphere cope. The Southern Hemisphere offense is so utterly relentless and mobile, it eventually creates gaps in even the most well marshaled defense and those defenses quite naturally rise to levels to try to quell them. Northern hemisphere rugby Union supporters have become the equivalent of rugby league supporters coming on Union vids to talk like bitchy schoolgirls about things they’re jealous of. These invented copes & tropes don’t dovetail well with history either, even after England gets their roughly once a decade win over the AB’s.
@@jrbreytenbach9104 As a french I can only agree seeing how he destroyed us last time we played against them ç_ç but they always have a very decent choice anyway (to say the least) those AB^^
Well done Chiefs! Cracking game. Loved the step by Chiefs no. 10 to get the try. Tries by both teams forwards off the set piece were outstanding, perfectly timed to catch the defenders napping.
McKenzie has been absolutely unreal this season. The All Black's 15 jersey is so competitive with Barrett x2 and Jordan, but on recent form there's no way McKenzie doesn't start
I watch these Super Rugby games as an England fan and I'm so jealous of the talent on show!!! McKenzie would walk into the England team at 10 or 15...it amazing he isnt starting for the ABs...but also understandable!
Mr. Ex-Coach Gatland can be happy that his son Gatland scored a clever run Try in this important match. DMac missed a kick from infront, otherwise the margin would've been 5. It's relentlessly tumultuous beautiful game SupeRugby Aotearoa 😇🇳🇿
The front 5 in the Southern Hemisphere are so much more mobile and athletic than we have in the northern hemisphere. Think that’s the major difference at the minute, they’ve sacrificed defence for speed and it does make for a more exciting game.
Just imagine how it's gonna be difficult for the AB manager to choose between McKenzie, Bauden Barrett, and Jordie Barrett for fullback (and also Will Jordan)...
There is a persistence problem in the defensive lineup in all Super Rugby Aotearora teams as a whole. It will be exploited by the NH as well as SH counterparts who have a solid defensive line to abolish the relentless offensive strategies. AB is a different kind of beast and I am well aware of it. But better to rectify these mistakes now before it runs too deep and hamper AB's as well.
These penalties are killing the game! The guy may be slightly in front of the kicker but he had no influence in the game... the ball was kick far down field. It would have been different if the offender prevented Gatland from kicking the ball.......... grrrrrrrr. Oh come on you rule makers......... stop killing the game. But a great game - love NZ rugby.
McKenzie is having the season of his life!!!
And to think he’s coming off the back of an ACL injury, great to see
The AB Selection is going to be tough!

What a 50+ metre kick by JB. He's the long distance kicker for the AB. Well done Chiefs and Crusaders shall see you in the Finals.
Imagine an NZ team with Jordie B at 10 and McKenzie at 15.
There is no finals

@@tomrimonu5347 since wen
Don't even think jordie hit that 55m penalty that well
Jordie Barrett and Damien McKenzie are world class players.
The smiling assassin has got another one! On form and has earn the rights to start for the ABs this year 💪 👌 🙌 👏
What a game
That Mackenzie guy 's pretty good isn't he
Yeah I definitely predict an all blacks appearance in his future somewhere

@Slo Mo well wait for the Trans Tasman comp to prove your point. Aussie teams look good but let's wait and see..

What a game!! Mackenzie very close to that black jersey!! Thanks for the awesome rugby from South Africa!
Thank you McKenzie, thank you
Mckenzie's been clutching every game...pure match winner
MVP of the tournament
5:23 Canes 16 absolute cannonball. 💣
Yep that was a good try.
Best game of the season thus far.
a smile can make the difference every time , every day , SMILE and WIN
ALB is such a good midfielder. Envy the chiefs for having him
Although I am Japanese, I like Mckenzie and his play!
I'm looking forward to watch his play someday soon!
NZ Rugby and the Chiefs, Nothing Better 🔥🔥🔥

Powerhouse by the mighty chief!!!all the way from California
DMAC🔥
Pause DMAC for a moment..Aumua though... unstoppable 5m runs..🔥🔥🔥

Chief been losing close games now the tide have change ..u beauty Mackenzie
That slide into Gatlands leg after he dived. All class
That early celebration by Hurricanes #7 though 👏😂 6:03
I am south african but watching new zealand teams play rugby is just beautiful.
Love such a close game
Well done both teams
Let's go Chiefs!
the Mckenzie show💯💯👊
That finish gave chills
A few years ago people were worried there was no good goal kickers in NZ... lol
Seem to be saying this a lot of late but well done Chiefs! McKenzie is metronomic with his kicking, maybe the best in the world at it right now.
Cracking game! Well played chiefs!!
He's done it again...... #ChiefsMana🔥
The Chiefs have won me over this season. McKenzie well in to the 90s now and well deserving.
Yes it is a beautiful beautiful game ... edge of seat stuff for the whole 80 + 3
His dangerous when he smiled before he kick😁
Great game! McKezie a super star!
Chiefs are now called Team Clutch!
Wowww just wowwww 👏 McKenzie you rock 👊👏🙌
How good was that first try. Always love a forward score a try like that
The clutch again 🔥
i felt that smile at 6.29
Great game
wow what an awesome game........well done Chiefs.......
What a game!!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥
remember ppl being bored with crusaders winning and nothing else, 2-3 weeks later every game is a live wire till the last second
This is good for NZ rugby. It shows any team can win on their day and right now the Chiefs are on a winning roll.
what a wonderful game!!!!
I can’t believe they are still using the Macarena after a try !!!
Mckenzie king of kickers in Rugby🏈🏈🏈🏈
Great BMT by D Mac.
Again !!! WOW 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Good grif what a game!
I don’t get how long does the advantage go for now?
Honest question. They advanced so far, I'd thought advantage was over.
What a time to be alive
The smiling assassin is a cut above the rest. .
6:02 Look at No.7. How did he feel.
I JUST WANTED TO COMMENT THIS! KARMA IS A BITCH
Yeah Karifi looked like it was game over.... live and learn I guess.
Chiefs on a roll now.
Waikato Till The End✌️💥
mckenzie is the king always do the things in the last min
lets go chiefs
Ohhh yesssss
WoW.... that match.
Oh hardluck my Canes. Go the Chiefs

Congrats 😏🤙👑
DMAC, the form player of the season.

That ref should've called advantage over!
チーフス最近スゴイ！！
5連勝じゃね？
Awesome Chiefs!
Hoho McKenzie is incredible!
DMac, what an incredible athlete!
good game chiefs
Had 100 bucks on highlanders to make the final at 81 bucks. Thought I could be on until the Canes shat the bed there haha
Mckenzie again saves the Chiefs..!!
Love to see Dmac in next world cup as he missed the last one.
5:27 cement mixer🥺❤️
DMAC with the shot boy!
Go the Mighty Chiefs.
Mackenzie is on fire this season.

I expect we’ll start to see a few more mullets after this
Probably when Jack Goodhue lost his mullet the whole rugby community gave themselves the green light to finally get one.
❤️🔥❤️🔥👍👍
Good game.
