    Highlanders best 40 minutes of the season but in reality you just get the impression the floodgates will open in the 2nd half
    Is it me or would Paul Williams fit right in as a cop in those police stop videos out of the USA..?

    Landers just don’t have the firepower to do anything on attack unfortunately. When you’ve got a no name Argie on the wing and a Pom at fullback, it’s pretty dire times.

      @Canes4life that’s why I said ,possibly their best 40 given the cattle they are up against
      Will probably be more competitive next year when every man and his dog has gaped it

        That's ridiculous. How is that worthy of a penalty?

            The Highlanders problem isn't a lack of firepower at all. They have firepower. They lack cohesion as a team both on attack and defence, and are too inaccurate.

                  Yeah, one of the worst yellows I have seen. There hasn't even been that many penalties. It is just something refs do out of inertia, without any analysis of the situation.

                    Man Stevenson is looking good. Certainly making a statement in the first three rounds.

                      I know it's early season, but even if his form falls away a bit, I don't see how Stevenson can be ignored for higher honours.

                        Being unable to move is still your fault, intent does not matter, your there and shouldn't be. Commentators have even stopped whinging about those calls

                                Yeah, agreed, but Frizell was trying to hold him up. He didn't and fell on the wrong side. It should be a penalty but never a yellow.

                                  Utter nonsense. Every referee course knows that when a player is trapped by actions of others that they should apply some leniency. Every Chiefs player pinned him into the ground with no option to escape.

                                    @hydro11 A yellow, because Cane talked to the ref. Captains have too much influence on some refs.

                                        Yeah, refs are terrible. The Highlanders just need to get 2 penalties, for their captain to ask the ref for a card and the Chiefs will get one.

                                          I haven't been watching much but DMac has looked great in the last ten.

                                          Weber's pass is like he's a different player - and you can see the effect it's having on opening up space everywhere.
