Highlanders vs Blues

[gt12]

Landers player a mile offside there.

[Dice]

Gatland looking good.

Preston and Collins looking out of their depth.

[taniwharugby]

Plays for Harbour.

FABRT in.

Some decent play by both teams so far, for round 1.

[taniwharugby]

possibly a wee bit fortuitous, but good patience

[ACT Crusader]

That was sweet by the Blues.

Poor kick by Lima. Not deep enough.

[KiwiMurph]

What a try.

Collins is soooooo fucking shit.

[taniwharugby]

Some brutal defence, but also some average defence by both teams

[taniwharugby]

some loose ruck work

[Stargazer]

Wow, Thompson, brilliant try!

[booboo]

Forward pass?

[taniwharugby]

slow Collins looked pretty quick coming across in defence there

He came from some distance too.

I know it’s game one (of the real stuff that is) but it is nigh on impossible to get a TO at the ruck under these laws.

[taniwharugby]

SBW did a bit of a dummy from the back of the rusk there...another rule he doesnt know

[Dice]

That's where Pulu being greedy might've paid off. It looked like he had a chance there.

@act-crusader

The Blues got one by having more numbers there earlier, but so far it seems like jackalling over will be super rare unless the player is totally isolated.

[gt12]

Holy shit. Akira too big

[ACT Crusader]

Too easy. Aaron Smith not communicating with his openside, still has his head in the scrum.
