Blues v Highlanders

[Kiwiwomble]

Watching the build up for the last 15mins...haven’t actually mentioned the highlanders yet, three blues player profiles...

@Kiwiwomble Highlanders just there to make up the numbers. Probably had to borrow jerseys too.

[junior]

What’s with both teams wearing away jerseys?

[Bones]

Joshing around. Terrible TJ.

Blues even get their favourite commentator. Good to see Auckland still favoured in NZ rugby.

[Kiwiwomble]

Both teams having to wear away jerseys because they clash ....face palm, we will have just brough our away kit and then they will have notice it clashes with the blues so they have to too

[KiwiMurph]

That's a strong Highlanders bench.

I hope Goldie is there to support the Blues. He does live in Auckland!

Why isn’t there a down vote button!

Ah yes, the away kit at home. Shout out to Adidas for designing the Highlanders kits so similar to each other.

In fairness it’s not just us, the other four away kits are variations in blue

I don’t know why they give the fans what they want and do an Maroon one

[KiwiMurph]

Crazy how the Landers strip colour wise is not that different from their main strip

[Yeetyaah]

@Kiwiwomble Yeah but the Highlanders' alt is similar to their home, they should have gone the Blues' route and had a predominantly white kit as their alt.

I’m sure it it was up to the team we would have, adidas and their parley range

[Yeetyaah]

That Blues alt kit is super nice tho.

[African Monkey]

Nice patience there from the Blues.

[Kiwiwomble]

It’s going to be a long night

[Tim]

Nice control there. Highlanders 8 not much impact on defence there.

[Yeetyaah]

Great from Hodgman.

Parkinson’s turnstile arm also a highlight of that try

[Yeetyaah]

Also up the Landers.
