    Burns looks worth sticking with for a run of games. Would like to see him operate with Smith.
    That won’t make up for the rest of the shambles but it’s a start.

    The silver lining for the Highlanders is that they aren’t playing the Chiefs (yet) 😜

    I thought you weren't allowed to huddle before line outs?

    Berry is much more relaxed than BOK for some reason.

    The Landers have little firepower in the backs to do anything even if they do dominate up front. That’s their biggest issue.

    I don't think he's looked great... but then if you're comparing against Hunt last week, it's a tough call.

    It's absurd that Burns is keeping an NZ player out of a starting 10 jersey.

    Not when the NZ players are worse.

    Fakatava putting in a good shift and that’s behind a beaten pack 🤔

    The other franchises have all the decent 10s. If we want to develop depth and competition at a national level then having good 10s (or potential 10s) not even making the 23 is a waste.
    Chiefs even sent one to Japan for a year as he would have been a waste of training kit.

    That was nice by TUJ. Bit hard to rate him in this backline.

    Yeah he doesn't move very well laterally.
