Highlanders v Rebels
-
@gt12 previously in years we had manu/whitelock from short line outs or big wingers naholo/Osbourne set first phase.
The did well early using the inside runner rather than trying to go wide early and now that’s all the are doing - right now again they should have scored but Hunt goes super wide for no good reason.
-
@sparky nothing to do with coaches, look at the team they have now! Lost faaar to much talent and have mitre 10 players out there.
@98blueandgold It would be very interesting to see a timeline of the average age of each NZ Super squad.
Seems like loads of guys under 25 playing now - talented players, but lacking the experience of old grizzled veterans.

@Stargazer this is his debut to SR isn't it?
-
giving those Aussies a bit of self belief!
-
And the lineout kills us again!. I’m sure whitelock use to call them. With no squire, Dixon, Franklin etc just don’t look good enough in this area. Lack height both jumpers and lifters
@98blueandgold Who call the l/o now? Whetton and Selby-R?
Must say, the hookers didn't have a great night either. Coltman isn't exactly known for throwing well.

@Stargazer not sure, Whetton a lock/6 with no experience, parete a 6,3 lock, tuu and TBN both 8s so can’t think of who wld. Really lack to technical skills in area with make up of jumpers and lifters.

@98blueandgold I think I saw Whetton make the calls before leaving the field. Just not sure who took over when he went off.
