Deserved win to the ponies.
Landers look clueless on attack... no real playmaker leader. 2024 is largely going to be 2023 rinse and repeat unfortunately

I think it's really starting to take shape, just missing a beat.

Nah. The Landers last year got pumped. Regularly. Patchell has been the backline leader. Wasn't playing today. Gilbert as much as he should be a good player. He is just a bit nothing.

I'd have gone for the lineout and drive

@SouthernMann Hard to disagree, potential though.. he looked a bit deer in headlights at time...
Yeah he actually went better than I expected, some nice touches on attack - just a bit pedestrian
Gilbert at 12 doesn't help any of our 10s....

Why? They get a bonus point, all they can get.
South Islanders letting the NZ teams down

Points difference and I didn't trust Gilbert not to fuck up.

That two points is going to be really costly at the end of the season.

Goal kicking aside I am just not a big fan of Gilbert

Can't beat out and out pace
You can decide not to give him that kind of space though. Bad read to turn in and end up defending no one.
@antipodean sometimes easier said than done when someone has extreme pace, margins get smaller.
Decent game, looked close to breaking into a brilliant game, but didn't.

The Clan never fail to frustrate. Only the Clan can gift the Brumbies a 5-metre lineout with a few minutes to go. You couldn't make that shit up. WTF!

Bullshit. I reckon the canes definitely could too.
I guess this year's crusaders would've been too far behind already....

@Bones don't bring this year's Canes into this. We've turned a corner.
I would have agreed if you referenced the 2023 Canes because I'm pretty sure we did that under Holland.@Canes4life said in Highlanders v Brumbies:

@Bones let’s not get ahead of ourselves.

Was it @frugby who said Harmon wasn't a strong carrier?
@SouthernMann said in Highlanders v Brumbies:

Certainly in the past, I think that has been the weakness of his game compared to say Cane? But that try was superb, and he has been on fire so far this season.
On form, he's the early front-runner for the ABs 7 jersey...
