JRK is so shite, all flash no substance
Aye? I feel like he’s been one of the better performing Landers players.

Ratumaitavuki-Kneepkens walking straight through another Stevenson tackle attempt.

Apart from a fine-margin kick or two, he's been good tonight.

Jeez this is a thumping.

Chiefs are a fantastic front-foot team
@Darth-Sader Best in the competition in that regard.

Cam Millar has been shocking.
Well what is a young kid supposed to do when he’s trying to execute a game plan that doesn’t work and is surrounded by more senior players who constantly fuck things up?

We’re still searching for a good 10… Millar’s confidence maybe shredded after being dropped at the start of the year, but he has been too slow today.
Harsh to place blame on him. I think this second half is a reflection of where are at as a team. The chiefs are bringing on All Blacks, we are bringing on super rugby squad players. It’s showing.

I’m not pinning this all on him, but I’m Super Rugby you need a 10 who is a threat at the line, and he just looks so poor. He made great strides last year, but he has hardly come in and shown he is any better.

First time we have been thumped this year.
@SouthernMann First time Highlanders have played an NZ team away.

The insanely easy schedule they had at the start of the season may have given the wrong impression (I.e. they’re shitter than initially anticipated…)

Sorry if this has been mentioned but the jerseys are quite hard to distinguish in the wide shots.
I'm in the JRK has looked pretty good tonight camp too.
@Tim Yeah, I thought he was off side too.

You didn’t forget to take your eyepatch off for this game?

When you take into account it's his second game back, he's been very good. Couple of mistakes can be expected, but he's saved our bacon clearing up kicks a couple of times and been dangerous ball in hand.

I’m reticent to criticise the players overall too much… that was just a really impressive 20 minute blitz from the best team in the comp. You could look at the gameplan, but we’ve really just been outgunned by a better team.

They’ve been outgunned by everyone that isn’t a bottom two team

My eyepatch is 100% black and white so you may be on to something.

Like I said. They are bringing on All Blacks, we are bringing on super rugby squad players. When you don’t have top end players, this is the result you get.

That’s just bullshit though isn’t it? Should have beat the Canes if we got the penalty as we should have, knock on missed before the Tahs score the game winner in FT, within a score away to the Brumbies having been blown off the park, highly competitive with the Reds, but our scrum fell apart.
We were shite against the Force, and have been done tonight, but to say we have been outgunned by everyone just isn’t true.
