    Excluding games against the Blues, no NZ team has won a NZ derby away from home yet. It certainly won't happen tonight.

      Blade Thompson had been a disaster since he's come on too

          That was an awesome counter ruck from the highlanders irrespective of weather a try was scored.

              You can’t exclude the Blues from NZ just yet, that crazy politician lady still needs enough signatures for her referendum before the North Shore becomes its own country.
              Dunno what’ll happen with Auckland when that happens - Chiefs might take pity on them perhaps?

                Jordie kicking it out deflatedly sums up their night.

                    Very average first 35 minutes; the Highlanders stepped up in the 2nd half. The Canes didn't.

                      Jordie Barrett at least has brains, nothing to be gained from another try to canes, but could allow landers to draw level on points with a bonus. Landers were awesome second half and improved, canes woeful and got worse. Basics and composure utter tripe

                          Pretty easy victory in the end. Canes falling away a the business end of the season.

                            If an independent Auckland joins the Australian Commonwealth, maybe we'd have a bit of competition for the Bledisloe. TV ratings improve. Good for everyone.

                              When Shields talks about not being able to hang on to the ball, I can’t help but laugh a little bit.

                              Congratulations on the 100 though. Seems a good bloke.

                                With a 58% line out success, and being awful last week, not taking the three is pretty stupid from our pommy captain

                                  Landers the better team by miles. Canes pack beaten up two games in a row, and backs unable to bail them out against an organised defense.

                                  Biggest positive for me from that game is the Smith brothers showing some good form leading into the tests.

                                  The break has come at a good time for the Canes. Let them stew on that for a couple of weeks then come out firing.

                                  Bring on the ABs.

                                          What summed up the difference for me,was Squire driving back Shields 5 x metres and Naholo pinching the turnover..
