    That should've gone wide but Smith saved hookers error.

        @Mattasaurus to be honest i am quite willing to cut the Landers some slack ,at the end of the day the Landers looked poorest squad on paper when the NZ teams were intially named ,there use to plenty of quality depth in NZ rugby but much of that depth has dissipated
        Believe you me when the Blues could’nt beat a NZ team for a couple of seasons that was far more embarrasing given catchment area ..a point thats been lost on a few posters

                That was such a shit kick. I mean you do a grubber in behind and the player is already there to pick it up. Such a greater counter, but what a shit kick.

                        I liked the way Weber just gunned it on that counter attack and put the pressure on with a quick recycle, rather than holding back fractionally looking for the offload.

                          Beautiful linkage, Weber setting a 20m sprint record.

                            Beautiful continuity. Highlanders back are really gash.

                              Fuck me. What a try.

                              DMac opens up and the support play was outstanding

                                    Where was the support for Gilbert? Cripes Landers lack pace

                                      That's true but if you are the shittest team, you can't just show zero fight and effort. Highlanders are just so easy to counter and look poorly coached. Tactics and game management are diabolical, to go with a lack of talent.

                                          @hydro11 to be fair their piviots throughout the whole season have been poor
                                          You cant fault the effort of DeGroot ,Harman and Smith so for me its not a lack of effort its about having quality in the right places and some X factor out wide
                                          A fit Jonah Nareki was devasting a couple of sessons back for example
