    @tim Blues look very generic..running at bodies ,very South African like ,try to bash you ..!,where the Highlanders are creative looking to create space letting the ball do the work ..

        We have to get Tony Brown as an AB assistant

        That try was beautiful to watch. Harmon is having a big game.

        Yeah - apparently he's "literally on fire" - according to JMarshall.
        Surely there should be a protocol for that, like a blood replacement or HIA?

          I have no issues with forward physical play. They make metres and dominate. Just have to pick when to use it.

          Blues should run away with it if (a) they keep the ball, and (b) stop having brain explosions. NOt convinced either's going to happen

                    Man another good pass from black. Unlucky not to score, should have been higher or to Ioane

                        Think through the hands would have done the trick there instead of the huge skip pass.

                          Thanks Faiane! Absolutely no need for a hit and hope skip pass.

                                        That's superb defence by the Clan half pairing.
