    How can we only have 15 on the board when they're playing with 14 and we outnumbered them by two for 10 mins?

        That is a tight forward pass call.

        @bones fuck yeah. That ball travelled less forward than those videos showing forward momentum alters the ball path

          Well I’ve never seen someone kick a player like that before. Red?

          The Highlanders and Counties can invite Tevita Nabura to catch the next slow boat back to Suva for mine. Apply for a job with a street gang or something.

          There is no place in the game for a bloke who has a think about it first and then carefully kicks a man in the face. You've got to wonder what sort of debased mindset comes up with that brilliant idea?

            It has ever been thus for the Waratahs.

              Franklin or Lousi for the ABs? Franklin has been a defensive monster the last couple of games.

                    @bones Franklin always looks out of his depth for the Maori team. Lousi has much more physical ability.

                        @tim yeah until a couple of weeks ago I would have accepted that, just he's been L Whitelock like in defence the last couple of games, has surprised me with his power and work rate.

                            Lousi has really impressed me. When they announced his signing, I thought they were nuts, but he's proven to be a great find. He won't be in the ABs squad, but I can't imagine he's not on their radar.

                                      @damo it was that ruck where it was really slow to come out as all the waratahs were lying all over it - Phipps couldn't see the ball and looked like he stomped on a highlanders foot/ankle when the ball was over the other side of the ruck.

                                      Edit: Frizzell got straight back up so probably nothing.

                                        I don't think the ABs are going to miss Sopoaga that much. He's been awful.
