Fascinated to see whether Millar is worth the hype. I have held the opinion he could be a Noakes or Berquist.

Hype? I haven't seen any hype.

I'd take Noakes or Berquist over Hunt. That's all it is

Dunedin rugby crowd is obsessed with Millar.

Ohhhh they're probably all from Tairei, just ignore those hillbillies.

First two lineout throws not straight. First set piece ball is kicked away.

[SouthernMann]

How was that. Penalty?

Aussie ref.. scrums.. real blind spot for them typically

Holy hell Damon Murphy is just the worst referee running around.

Castle reckoned EDG changed his mind, but I didn't see it, thought it looked like Lomax just dropped his.

[Tim]

Good tackle from Savea. Looks bulkier?

[SouthernMann]

It just looked like deGroot demolished Lomax in the scrum penalty

Yeah exactly the same happened again.

[SouthernMann]

De Groot is doing an absolute job on Lomax

[Mattasaurus]

Murphy clearly doesn't know what a dominant scrum looks like...

[Bones]

Really like how Moorby just puts the hammer down on kick returns and doesn't sit back farting about.

Or players going off their feet at rucks.
Or players joining mauls in front of the last feet.
Or lineout throws that aren't straight.
Et fucking cetera.

The fluffybunny ruins games.

[Mattasaurus]

Felt the canes got away with a couple of sealing off the ball at rucks there

[Bones]

BIG STRONG POWERFUL

Fuck off Paea.

[Tim]

@SouthernMann Those weak Hurricanes locks aren't doing him any favours.

[Tim]

If MP had a tight five they would smoke the Highlanders.

[Mattasaurus]

canes off their feet again.... no call (3 of them in the same ruck ffs)

[Bones]

How does Kirifi get away with that?

Got bumped off in the tackle, blatantly lost the contact but is allowed to fuck about on the highlanders side right on the ball
