    <p>It seems the Highlanders are really buying into a rotation policy, especially with the forwards. Dixon, Coltman and the likes of Wheeler and Franklin always start against the top teams. But there's no harm in playing the likes of Reddish, Ainley, and Whitelock, just to keep the other guys fresh.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>But I'm a bit perplexed about the selection of Jack Wilson ahead of Tongia, who I'm a massive fan of. Tongia has been great on attack and his defensive reading has improved a lot over the last year.</p>

    <p>Every chance Tongia has had, he has taken it with both hands, is odd he isnt gettting a decent shot</p>

    I'm far from his biggest fan, but Whitelock has been playing well. Plus it's only the Rebels......</p></blockquote>
    You know it's a requirement to not rate Whitelock. His reputation precedes him and he'll never be rid of it.<br><br>

    Wilson spent a couple seasons in Durban as well. Didn't work out though.

    <p>Andrew Leeds is refereeing. Will the game be worth watching? Just tuned in and its still nil nil after fifteen minutes.</p>

    <p>There's already been a couple shit decisions for each team.</p>

    <p>Highlanders are getting the better of play so far but making way too many mistakes.</p>

    I'm happy because a Highlanders win keeps my multi alive.... But....<br><br>
    Andrew Lees is a joke. Was begging the TMO to let him award a penalty try. For that? Wow

    So, I don't care if it's a dull game, as long as the High Landers win by plenty 🙂

    <p>The Landers have butchered a few occasions in the first half. They should be ahead by 20+.</p>

    <p>Yeah, even the penalty was harsh, looked like the Rebels player tried to catch it to me but then lost it backwards.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>And then the Landers fuck the 5m lineout up anyway.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Landers 13-3 after 53 mins.</p>

    <p>Landers finally get another try, though even that was a bit ugly, off an accidental shin kick. Comms were praying it hit his finger but nope.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Converted. Landers 20-3 after 56 mins.</p>

    The Rebels 10 - I'm not going to try spell his last name - definitely tried to knock it dead. But yeah definitely didn't touch the ball.

    <p>Alright, probably need to see it again then. I'm trying to keep track of the cricket while watching it and it hasn't exactly been an exciting game.</p>

    <p>Rebels gift an intercept to Osborne in the Landers 22 and Osborne runs off for a 80 odd metre try. Converted.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Landers 27-3 after 65 mins</p>
