Fekitoa few weeks back

Wasn't that from a tackled in the air? That's a completely different situation.

Correct. Feki didn't get red either, by the way.

[Mattasaurus]

That was very poor defence

[Rancid Schnitzel]

Laumape is a unit and a half. Flying nugget.

[Nepia]

Damn, Laumape laid out Ben from Accounts.

Potential AB for sure. Has to iron out some deficiencies though - a bit at fault for the Highlanders 1st try.

[Stargazer]

@Mattasaurus Yes, because he didn't show sufficient care for the other player in the air. Ref's words, not mine. Wasn't really a tackle, more going for the high ball, but too late and resulting in the other player falling on his head/neck.

[hydro11]

Only 7 penalties in this game. Gardner has been good to this point.

[Stargazer]

Hmm, Goosen was tackled without the ball and nobody seemed to notice.

[Mattasaurus]

Holy shit i dont know much about the landers XV playing right now...

[Mattasaurus]

That try was very silky. ABish

[hydro11]

Fantastic try there. Great work from Shields.

[Rancid Schnitzel]

Don't think the Blues lost anything there.

His option taking is poor

[Rancid Schnitzel]

Shields wtf man?

[taniwharugby]

Did the Highlanders lose Osborne?

[Rancid Schnitzel]

Excellent stuff. Landers out of puff. Could blow out now.

[Mattasaurus]

Landers lacking cohesion and combinations. Canes just too good for us as we are at the moment. But a decent effort and some good game time for some lacking experience.

Canes look sharp and building nicely

[antipodean]

Marty Banks' defence has been questionable in this game. Easily stepped twice leading to two tries.
