Good to see Tony Brown smiling, it's been a tough old season. But funny they have a shot just like 7 other side's come finals time.

I could see the Highlanders winning their QF. They will be up against the Blues more likely, who are far from unbeatable.

They’re more unbeatable than any other team in the comp aside from the Brumbies.

Think we've found our hooker combo and our ten. Hunt will be great off the bench.

You have found your 10 if you want to play without a first five. He has not played that role at all.

What role has he played? The role where kicks are successful and make more yards than you'd expect in under 7s? One where the backline is humming and he goes forward and creates opportunities?

Yeah you're right. Bring back Hunt!

See @Machpants post below. Not saying bring back Hunt at all.

Yup it's just Landers are playing in a different way. Gilbert been like a second five, and done bloody well at it. All the play off nine

Strangely Marshall doesn't agree because he doesn't understand the laws and their associated guidelines. How long does this dumb fluffybunny get to infest commentary?

Well I'd take him at first five in the ABs even though I've apparently never seen him play first five before. He's one of the world's best...but apparently doesn't play it.

Ah gotcha. Yeah totally, our nine is a fuck load better than our tens options in the ABs. Yeah we should try playing like France, or the Landers. Nine as the lynchpin, last tried lions #1

Commentators are right that the Force are rubbish.

Highlanders been OK though. I like the way we are building into the end of the season frankly.

Respectable loss to the Brumbies then 3 good wins in a row.
