    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.

    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.

    Our top 23 is tidy. We lack a lot of depth..this result is not surprising.

          And I'm agreeing. It is what it is against teams like the Chiefs. It is like being a Warriors fans and watching them get smoked by the Storm

            That's my point about JRK, great quick kick and run, then just kicks it away. Has the flash skills but no smarts

            Jesus mate give him a chance to get more than 1.5 games under his belt. He's also playing for a team in absolute struggle city, so he has to go overboard.

                      He’s played 1 club game and this is second super rugby game since he broke his neck. Lay off it

                            Tangitau and Nareki have shown good wingers look good in any team. Springer would fucken hold onto the ball for starters

                              He's been pretty smart on defence tonight. Some really intelligent play.

                                  This was always a game we were going to lose. Would have been nice if we didn't lose by so many

                                    Bigging him up? You mean talking about him being one of the bright lights for the highlanders and saying he's better than the little blonde guy?

                                        @frugby said in Chiefs v Highlanders:

                                        Can’t say I missed Jonah Lowe… comparing him to Macca Springer is massively disrespectful

                                        Fair comparison they're both painfully mid.

                                          For about 20 minutes there, the Chiefs were outstanding. If they can show that in every game, they will win the competition this year.
