14. MICHAEL MANSON

Defying odds by starting in round 1

[Bones]

Players being rested in week 1, for a "long" season? It's probably one of the shortest competitions around.

[Kiwiwomble]

@Bones yeah, i would have thought making a statement in round one getting the best result we could was worth it

[KiwiInLondon]

For the highlanders, I just hope we see the beginnings of an actual game plan and the players being able to stick to a plan and execute.

Also, does Manson have his lawyers on the phone after being denied his guaranteed bench spot?

We're starting against the It'souryearatahs, so that title is up for grabs.

After the past 3-4 years, I’ll believe it when I see it

Weather looks real shit for tonight. Here comes plenty of kicking, dropping the ball, on off running and scrum resets.

Really? I'm in Sydney and it's pretty dry, the odd shower around but I don't think it will be too bad.

It's meant to pack in around kick-off. Thunder and lightning etc.

Bureau's guess:

Keep in mind they're notoriously inept at predictions.

According to soothsayer Antipodean...

Good thing Allana Ferguson isn't getting carried away about the Tahs

"On paper... they could be unbeatable"

[antipodean]

@KiwiMurph She's one third of my commentary nightmare. Her, Harrison and SBW.

[SouthernMann]

How is that weather over there?

[Mattasaurus]

26 humid good chance of rain apparently

I'm with you

Matt Burke is a nice addition

[SouthernMann]

Soft loss of possession easy from Tangitau

Has always been a part of his game unfortunately. Needs to get rid of it

[Mattasaurus]

messy start

[SouthernMann]

Jeez Jo Sua'ali'i's take was unreal
