Brumbies v Highlanders

[Kiwiwomble]

also going to add im stoked our coaches have finally listened to me and given Sio a run of games on the wing, hasn't lit the world on fire or anything but i think he always just looked more comfortable on the wing, doesn't have the ball skills or vision for midfield and his rush defense is a liability. given some space and few other options he's shown a couple of good signs, worst critique is he'll almost always cut back infield which makes him predictable but at least hes running back to his support

This is all if they're going to insist on starting him, would also be happy to have an out and out winger

Renton's one and only game for the Hurricanes was quite a funny one. He came into the squad quite unexpectedly because Callum Gibbins got injured. He came off the bench in the 58th minute. Not sure who the captain was in that game, because the Canes didn't field their strongest team (they played the Cheetahs), but when he left the field, the players weren't quite sure who would take over the captaincy. When the ref asked for the captain, they all looked at each other and suddenly someone pointed his finger at Renton. So there he was, in this first Super Rugby game, captaining the team for the rest of the game. They won 61 - 7.

@stargazer just because he looks 40 and so someone thought he had the most experience?

Was he once? I don't recall ever seeing him play prior to this season.

Oh hello Mr Pedant! You didn’t happen to have a large purple umbrella at the 1996 Athletic Parj test by any chance?

Why the fuck is this white vs white?

[antipodean]

Looked to me like the Brumbies player was offside at the lineout/ maul.

@kiwimurph It will be interesting to see whether the same will happen in the Rebels v Crusaders game. I wonder whether there is a contractual obligation to wear the away jersey in away games?

If there is, I don't think pissing off fans trying to watch the game is a good way to sell more jerseys.

[antipodean]

Smith in trouble? Ioane with a terrible non-event defending his line.

[antipodean]

Brumbies should be on a warning already with the last five minutes of play.

[Stargazer]

Haha, typical Dixon try.

[Kiwiwomble]

That throw was pretty much half way across the field!

[antipodean]

That's a nice try, punishing a winger flying up out of the line.
