Hurricanes v Highlanders

@Stargazer it is? Are they standout NPC players? Because i don't know who the 10 is, the 12 is solid but unspectacular, the 13 has tits for hands, and the 14 is a midfielder who looks out of place in the outside backs. Good 9 though, and the 11 is going alright this year.
Maybe if they had a superstar like Whetu Douglas at 8 then the backs would be getting the ball to make them shine.

Highlanders:
Unavailable due to injury: Liam Squire, Shane Christie, Ash Dixon, Dan Pryor, Greg Pleasants-Tate, Lima Sopoaga, Waisake Naholo, Alex Ainley, Adrian Smith, Josh Dickson, James Lentjes, Siosuia Halanukonuka, Patrick Osborne

Edited to add:
http://thehighlanders.co.nz/our-news/latest-news/813-pulse-energy-highlanders-to-play-hurricanes-in-wellingtonThe Highlanders have obvioulsy not updated the list, considering Halanukonuka is in the starting line-up

Fast paced game so far.
And BB misses a kick. Let Jordie kick Beauden.
-
Nice work by the forwards there. Ardie looking good at 8.
-
Landers d is good...but good simple footy from canes.

Great goosey
-
What a waste of time.

-
Fuck iff thats okay... great technique.....but would've liked to see the earlier tackle

About Ardie at no.8. I'm wondering whether Hansen and co. have asked the Canes to play Ardie at 8? Just like they have, according to the media, asked the Saders to play Tamanivalu at wing? Because, maybe, they want another option for the ABs no. 8.?
Yeah maybe. He looks very comfortable there. Well so far anyway.....

C'mon guys. Landers defence excellent, but there should have been another try at least.

Canes miles offside

Lovely line and pass
