    Blues players bleaching their hair isn't helping the commentators. Noticed several times how they confused Rieko, Sotutu and even Akira (whose hair is pink).

    It's not that hard. They have numbers.

    @KiwiMurph Yeah, that should help when the numbers are actually visibile, but that's not always the case.

      Don't they know that the commentators need every player to have a distinct hair style to correctly identify them? There numbers on their jerseys are meaningless!

        Was that not a penalty against the Blues? Knock on and Akira who is infront of the ball handler tries to grab it then kicks it away when the Landers player is trying to get at it?

            That looked like the easiest of tries from Mitch Hunt! The Blues defence still mentally in the sheds?

              Good try Highlanders, started by Mikaele-Tu'u. Poor passage of play from Nock.

                          The difference between making your tackles and not.

                                    He knew we'd win the lineout! Just sees the play beyond anyone else.

                                          That man Mikaele-Tu'u again. He's been the best out there tonight for me.
