[Stargazer]

Mitch Hunt with Warriors-esque ingoal play

Oh man, how easy should that have been!

Proctor?

[Duluth]

Commentators talking up Whetton. Of course Whetton has looked better this year. He barely got on the field for the Highlanders last year

He’s been very important in the NPC for Auckland for a couple of seasons.
Powerful player in the tight, gets caught out a bit on defence when the game gets loose

[Kiwiwomble]

Florence on too, Hunt off?

[Chris]

Fakatava looks like he has a fungus growing on the back of his head

Not hunt so must be frizzel off

[ACT Crusader]

@Duluth you do realise these commentators don’t really know anything about rugby

[Kiwiwomble]

Commentators have been rubbish calling the subs, ioane off too

[Dice]

Tomkinson has no attacking awareness. Not much skill either.

[Bones]

So @Kiwiwomble how do you feel about your positivity before the match talking about the Highlanders having nothing left after the crusaders? Who was the negative nelly saying it was hopefully a turning point?

[Stargazer]

@Kiwiwomble Frizell is still on the field. Probably for MMT.

[Kiwiwomble]

@Bones I actually said I wasn’t sure if we’d have nothing left of if we’d take some inspiration from it...seems it’s the later

[ACT Crusader]

Shelby-Rickit has a bit of edge to his game. Like his work rate and aggression.

[Stargazer]

Geez, Rakete-Stones almost decapitated.

[Nepia]

I hope someone shaves his head before the NPC season.

[Kiwiwomble]

@Nepia nuggie use to do all the guys haircuts...wonder if that’s his handy work

[Stargazer]

Deserved win for the Highlanders!

Obviously, I'm biased, but IMO Dixon and MMT outplayed All Blacks Coles and A Savea. Hope both get a chance in the NvS game.
