Highlanders vs Moana
-
Team has a better lock about it than last time, but the bench is flakey. Feels like we will just find a way to win this one. We shall see.

Moana starting 3rd choice tight head, so will be relieved to have Fa'amausili on the bench.
Will be a good scrum battle between Apoua and De Groot. Apoua is a big scrummager.

Is there still a chance for either of these two sides?
Check the table

Late changes.
Renton out and Stodart coming in at 8 for him. Jake Te Hiwi drops out and Filimone comes on to the bench for him.

Mathematically, yes.
Realistically - Highlanders finish with Hurricanes and Crusaders away, and Chiefs at home. They'll need a miracle.
Moana must win this one and then have some results go their way - e.g. have to beat the Blues and have the Drua do the same. Tahs and Force also have to stumble. Equation is unlikely, but possible.

Renton is a real loss, good leader.

Forced to fast track Stodart a bit with Broughton being out injured too. At least it’s getting the young man some good experience nice and early
-
Messy but some nice pressure built. Opportunist try. Dumb off load from Moana
-
Well constructed try for Moana.
-
In true Highlanders form. We score a try and then concede one within 2 minutes
-
@Landers92 not a good look for Haig having a smaller midfielder go through him.
-
-
JGB an absolute liability for Moana would make a good case for a 9 & 10 partnership with Enari for the Canes
JGB’s non game management beggars belief -

Get Jonah Lowe in the all blacks
Certainly scoring tries more consistently than Springer...
-
Ohhh great finish from @Bones mate Lalomilo Lalomilo.
