New Zealand's best openside flanker Jim Tavatavanawai to the rescue

Moron likes it, I say take three 3
And I'm right, and Joey shit for brains is unsurprisingly wrong

We look a bit flustered out there.

Blues are a shadow of the 2024 team
What's missing? Ioane and the halfback that's better than ginge?

Great hit by groot sets up the turnover... pheeeeeewww
My pessimism unfounded so far... although I still feel Blues just need to slow it down a bit and hold on to some possession and the points will come

I think rule changes hurt Vern ball.
Also - Landers are clearly better under Joseph than under Dermody.

Definitely a lot more shape to the Landers and a bit less shape to the blues. Blues at rushing it, very reminiscent of the ABs recently.

I've been amazed at how many pundits have just written the Landers off on the basis of other teams will be better.
Even after last weeks game. Everyone lauded the Tahs, then just said, yeah Landers, no wonder they lost

Tangitau should have been released. Bullshit no call
Yes, that was so obvious. But Daymon!!
BB didn't clearly release before the Gilbert try too.

There was also a Landers knock on at the line out leading up to that try.
I think it's fair to say you win some you lose some?

Where's Gilbert from and did Schumacher ever visit that town?

He once did skids out the back of Macleans Island

Rieko is the worst player on the field
Jammed in there unnecessarily, giving that space

Totally agreed. I genuinely wonder if he's under the weather
-
Highlanders backline looking far more creative
-
The landers outsides are pretty good hey?
There are some very average so-called elite players getting shown up this year
