    Give the Highlanders the MP backline and this game is already over.

    @dice given Gregory played 7s, he offers no attacking threat, his ball security and tackle accuracy is poor (last year defence and ruck work was very good)

      For a team that struggles to defend the maul you'd think MP would try to avoid giving away penalties.

          It's a feature of all three island sides, they're just playing to stereotype

              Fakatava is getting better with every game he plays.

                      Fakatava first action was to put his hands on the ground to balance himself. It's a bullshit penalty.

                              @kiwimurph That's not the point. It's that the negatives are always emphasised here, and if someone finally says something positive about a player (regardless which province he's from), some people immediately follow it up with something negative to counter the positive.

                                    @toddy ,MP have not helped themselves with so many infractions , but you are dead right they have had no love from Fraser and the example you highlighted is spot on .

                                          Shit, Tony Brown just said that both Frizell and Selby-Rickit look like they've done their ACL and that their season may be over. Injuries are always awful, but ACLs, that's really bad. Hope it's not as serious as he thinks it is.
