This is a try fest.

And PPP not looking good.

[Yeetyaah]

Bloody hell another one off with an injury

[Winger]

33-12 HT. Defense is not great but apart from that not a bad game with lots of tries.

[Mattasaurus]

Parkinson not broken.... maybe just slightly broken

Poor Highlanders defense

Try Drua 28-12 Highlanders

That's a bad way to write the score

[Grooter]

Gilbert having a good game

[Mattasaurus]

Lovely try.

Gilbert, Smith, Harmon and Whithy have looked very good to me .... even Hunt has played well so far

[antipodean]

If Aaron gets injured, we are boned. He's such an excellent player.

[taniwharugby]

@antipodean only if he brings his running game....

I'd say he is judicious in determining when to run. Even that kick deep into the Drua's 22 was awesome. He just has all the skills.

[taniwharugby]

@antipodean oh I know he has them all, but for the past couple of years in black he has been far too predictable, although showed a glimmer of his running game again on the EOYT.

Bogado is a bit too flappy for my liking - play the game, stop trying to influence the ref

[Grooter]

Wanna see cam millar & Fakatava soon

same here.. really want to see that combo.

[Mattasaurus]

If lowe didn't get it down it should be PT from the scrum to begin with... 3 in a row...

[Grooter]

Aaron's best game since the Wales Test

[broughie]

So why did the Highlanders decide to wake up?

[SouthernMann]

A confidence builder. Nothing more.
