    Holland has been ok but would like to see a bit more

    Yeah was hoping we would have seen him running one off a bit more

    Haig, Millar, JVK, Holland (most of the time) are just incredibly sensible. We need some level headed players on the field

    Ffs it’s all doom and gloom in here and it’s only been 40 minutes into the season and 13-12 at halftime, you’d think we were down by 20 by some of these messages.

    A very simple gameplan on attack in the first half, almost dumbed down to make things a bit easier for Hastie and Robinson and not overwhelm them. Don’t think we can expect to win if we carry on with that gameplan though, expecting Millar and Fakatava to come on relatively early and open things up a bit.

    Wouldn’t mind seeing Manson coming off his wing and getting busy, it isn’t NPC now fella, come in and get involved.

    We are still in this, nothing silly, continue to make the tackles and we could come away with the W.

    He still makes too many basic errors.

    I'm generally stoked with how things are going. All we heard before the game was tahs tahs tahs. A better lineout throw and we were up by 2 or 7/9 at the break. Their biggest weapon is an up.and under, yet their million dollar man can't catch a cold.

    @SouthernMann I had a look at the Tahs lineup before the game and was confused by all the optimism. 4, 5, 7, and 8 are all rather average.

    Have read a lot of write ups over the last few days. Some average big city players get kudos, some good Highlanders players get ignored. We aren't full of All Blacks, but still have some decent players.

    I think you have to remember how shit the Tahs were last year.

    On paper they are much better this year

    That is one of the most woeful penalties I’ve ever seen. Angus Gardner needs to come off it. That’s pathetic

    Had to do some work. How did the Tahs get into the 22 with the lineout throw?
