Right there is example of how inept we are on attack. Break to the half way then make about 3 more meters on 5/6 phases before turnover!

And defence. Utter shit

[KiwiMurph]

great defense in the 10/12 channel.....

[westcoastie]

I reckon theres been a couple of forward passes, a couple of knock-ons, at least once joining the ruck from the side all missed against the Rebels in the first 10min.

Fuck sake we had one victory in NZ for Oz sides last few years. Chiefs shit the bed, now Landers are playing like donkeys.

The Rebels deserve plenty of credit, they are playing well. Good lines/offloads etc

Brumbies are getting missed lots. Considering this is the rebels giving the Highlanders a rogering, no lube

not sure all the offloads are legit though. definitely playing with great intent right now.

Oops Rebels. These aussie sides all seem the same to me...

[westcoastie]

poor D on that one - the Highlanders.

[98blueandgold]

Piss off hunt! Hated the signing. Iaone to 10, Walden to 12 ASAP

[98blueandgold]

Body language is poor bar Smith. Shit players in a hole playing shit = shit

[Machpants]

Ugh turned that off

[98blueandgold]

Aaahhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!&&&@@$$$$$$

[Duluth]

Hunt has always been this shit. He was overrated because of who he played for

[Stargazer]

@Duluth Overrated, yes. Shit is an exaggeration IMO.

Good pace by Counties' legend, Andrew Kellaway.

[98blueandgold]

Our strengths have turned into weakness simply because NZ rugby has run out of players to service all teams. I would argue Highlanders are weakest team on paper NZ has produced for a long time!

[gt12]

The landers are just fucking terrible. I can’t see any way that they wouldn’t be better if they had Ioane at 10 and Walden at 12.

They have too many bad 10s on the field.

[KiwiMurph]

Our strength of our team is our AB 9-10. I know - let's split that up - put a worse player at 10 and also weaken our midfield at the same time. Genius.

Hip hooray
