And that is why Millar is your 10

Despite him making the kick he's still mid

Going to be great next year when we have a 10 who can manage the game and kick goals.

Such an improvement on the defence from last year. Pleasing to see

Kidwell defence coach yeah?

Was going to ask if he was making a difference already?

[Bones]

Angus did his best to hand it to the saders and they dropped that too.

[Steven Harris]

LF for all the hype was very disappointing
Crusaders not their usual clinical best but full credit to the Landers for their D

[KiwiMurph]

Handling seemed better by both teams in the second half

[jimmyb]

Top of table, Otago have the Ranfurly shield. Fuck Canterbury

[SouthernMann]

Tayla Johnson is painful.

Did you think you did anything well?

What fucming question is that

How far are you behind mate. Game finished 10 mins ago.

Was impressed by Tangitau's all around work - made his tackles - kick chase. Hope it continues.

He looks a lot different in a Highlanders jersey than an Auckland one

[Tim]

@SouthernMann Hopefully Bates is replaced by Pivac soon!

Great grit from Highlanders. But Fakatava and Millar need to be more clinical than they were tonite, allowing Crusaders back in it. Blackadder and Jordan went ok. Jonah Lowe has some nice touches, as did JRK

Put an inside combo of Pledger and Jacomb and that backline goes up a level.

Only saw second half, but wasn't impressed by Crusaders halfbacks. Early days yet though.

I'm hoping the same applies for the Blues Auckland npc boys tomorrow

[KiwiMurph]

Jamie Joseph certainly looks like someone who will be named AB coach. He looks over the moon.
