Highlanders vs Blues

Tony Brown had that Landers attack humming without many stars.

[African Monkey]

Thank God for that! Good win away from home with plenty to work on going forward, especially our exits.

[Dice]

Love the addition of Tucker. Always been a fan.

[African Monkey]

@dice He has to be in the 23 going forward. Romano and Darry can fight it out for the last locking spot.

Blues used Hoskins really well today - making use of his ball playing skills.

If he makes the ABs that's what i'd like to see him doing. For a loosie his passing and ball skills are elite - make use of it.

In 12?

Really hope Beauden Barrett is OK. Nightmares if Mo'unga is our first five.

Was it just my bias or was RI pretty quiet?

Result as expected, don’t think any of our boys had a real shocker…just not cohesive enough, and when your not world beaters in skill level wise you need to play like like a single unit…which we dont

He's a crusader, one eyed for whom?

@machpants the highlanders. Grizzles about what he sees as dud calls all the time, but only one way.

How the fuck was that not a card?

That was a massive loss. Fingers crossed for him - has been huge this year.

I'm just past that. Amazed they didn't have a look.

Impressed with Nock this week. Good game, so so much better than his last outing

[nzzp]

A Smith has been the best halfback in the country (and arguably the world) for a long long time. Critical to our game, and makes such a difference to the Highlanders. Without him, so many games would be blowouts. What a player

[Steven Harris]

@machpants ,Dalton Papalii from what I have been told was really annoyed as both Hoskins was hit high , nothing done and BB had an elbow driven into his head , nothing done and Goodhue was lifted dangerously nothing done ..incredibly Fetuli Paea was involved in all 3 ..

[nzzp]

@steven-harris that's the frustrating thing. One week it's a card - one week it's play on. Just annoying.
