    I always through Brett Cameron had a bigger boot. He’s hopeless.

        Good start to the half by the Canes. Higgins with a good carry, and then the Canes dominated the scrum led by Mafileo and Tosi. Good to see.

        Canes warming into their work.

        17-12 to the Landers.

              That shouldn’t have been a try either. Clear knock on.

                  Happy with the Landers so far. Ricky Jackson has surprised me. Patchell, Harmon, Nareki, CGB and DLB have been good.

                    I'm a bit behind. But Canes lineout has been dreadful so far (first 20 minutes)

                      Typical pre season game. So many mistakes and players pushing passes etc.

                        I’m real worried about our 10s aye. Morgan is garbage, Cameron looks crap. Give the young gun Godfrey a run.

                            Not much trust in canes defence, players joining tackles unnecessarily, leaving space near the ruck all the time

                              PPP was hobbling before he was subbed. Hopefully for his sake he isn't injured again.

                              That's some mullet on Tele'a.

                                  Hurricanes look like they are in a training run, not in a good way. Not committing to tackles fully, laboured running into contact and not fully committing to the breakdown.

                                  I’m not too worried because pre-season results never mean anything but you’d expect a little bit more two weeks out from the start of the comp.

                                      Flanders has f all impact to him for his size aye. He runs hard but literally makes no impact on contact. Obviously lacks power.

                                      Brayden Iose looks much better at 8 for me.

                                        Canes have far too many under 20s players out there. So young and dumb.

                                        I don’t get the point in having such a big squad. Players in there that are clearly not going to ply for the Canes this year so why even bother.

                                          Good smart play from a very young Highlanders team. The vast majority would only be only in their early 20s.
