Moulds is shit. Faiava needs to be the new bench hooker.

BS, Moulds is trucken all good. He's better than Parsons, and the other guy G P-T some have a curious affection for.

In second half:
Nut Brown seemed to succumb to home town blinkers. Thought first half OK apart from hilarious maul error.
Squire made strong statement as Kaino successor. Loose forward battle switched.
P.S. Still like Luatua as best fall back to Read.

@Hooroo although ironically, it probably gives them more exposure because he put tape over it

[Tim]

@Northlandallday Needs to work on his throwing though.

It looks like BNZ are on the blues collar....
SBW must bank with the Bank of Allah.

Well that's a weird one then.

Not weird at all (if it's a bank). Islam prohibits charging interest on money.

Not sure if the tape is a good look though.

Well, they prohibit calling what they're charging interest at any rate ....

Indeed, there are loopholes that are used (quite cynically) Still, not a total surprise a Muslim might not want to advertise a bank.

[Gunner]

Surely a player, regardless of their religion can't be allowed to cover up a sponsors logo.

If I was that sponsor I'd be pretty fucking pissed having no doubt paid thousands of dollars for the right to have a logo there.

Cant be different rules for different people, especially religion based ones.

@akan004 Ofa T has actually plays well for the ABs but yes for the Blues not too much different from Prattley - probably because in all honestly a lot of NZ Super Derbies are higher intensity than a lot of tests.

[Stargazer]

@Gunner Easily fixed though, if another player does an extra promo or something like that. Not a biggie.

[Damo]

@taniwharugby said in Highlanders vs. Blues:

@Damo what about Investec, they do banking too?

Maybe, but their core business is investment advice/brokerage.

I'm not necessarily defending him by the way.

First throw overthrow not good, the rest were spot on. Did ya see P-T wild throw and Parsons numerous miss throws.

He's an excellent impact player.

[taniwharugby]

@Damo seems a bit picky choosy for me

[kev]

I thought that was a better game for the Blues but still too many individual errors. Fekitoa was awesome. Just played tough, kept coming and by the end he and Buckman had won the midfbield battle against the Auckland stars.

[Gunner]

Veitchy is running with tapegate on his FB page too.
There are some serious fucking idiots who post on social media.

I hate Veitch, but he knows how to get hits.

[Tim]

Do the Blues have a fitness problem the way they fade in the 2nd half of these big games.

[KiwiMurph]

@Tim I thought the same thing during the game. Their intensity just drops.

[canefan]

They had enough chances to win the game. They just don't have the confidence to finish off right now

@mariner4life said in Highlanders vs. Blues:

SBW makes my rugby dick hard. Fuck off @MN5 stop proving you know fuck all.

Nutbrown has out the whistle away and it's a free for all at the moment

That comment is still less gay than liking Nicole Kidman I guess
