Highlanders v Rebels

[SBW1]

Really good result, always thought the Rebels have had a pretty good season, while the Landers have had a turd of a season.

Some interesting comments about the Landers poor attack and the need to get rid of their attack coach.

I sincerely hope Paul Williams isn't reffing any Wales matches at the RWC

The only good thing that came out of this turd of a game was Billy Harmon's performance. He deserves a better team.

Billy Harmon is the form No. 7 in NZ. Absolute monster in every area of the game.

Unfortunately he’s had the call up

@Stargazer There were highlights. That was the worse game of rugby I have endured in a while. It would have been better if the lights failed.

@SBW1 I loved how Hardwick couldn't believe he was pinged for not supporting his weight when Harmon had pulled him over and his feet were no longer even touching the ground! Apart from what looked like a missed tackle yes Harmon is a great team player.
On another topic, Can Gilbert play wing, 12 and 10?!

I loved how Hardwick was pulled off his feet in a neck roll, but we don't seem to penalise that any more

I've been interested to see how much pulling there's been at the breakdown this year. I thought that was a penalty offence? Even against Australians I think.

The neck rolls and pulling players into your side of the ruck is a blight
