Outstanding defence by the Saders
Even cheating counts as good D these days!

Highlanders will be gutted to not have any points, but just not good enough at holding the ball.
Just so easy to defend when there's only one or two threats on phase ball. Terrible option taking but also not really any options.

It always has. If you get away with it, is not cheating

@frugby Tavatavanawai on the wing is a huge mistake. Anyone who thinks he is an option there for the ABs is mistaken.
Doesn’t help him he is playing on the edge of a wank backline with zero experience.
Corey Brown is a woeful attack coach

Ths competition is exposing a couple of previously hyped coaches - Jamie Joseph and Vern Cotter.
And helping the reputation of a previously maligned one - Rob Penney.I'm curious to the changes in that saders coaching group from last year. They're not exactly convincing but apart from the chiefs the other kiwi teams are terrible. Crusaders are just relentless though.

But, yes, Joseph isn’t the Messiah. Not sure Penney’s a championship coach either though. Have to get an extra 15% out of your team come finals time.

@Darth-Sader looked like Taylor came from behind the last feet and then tackled him as he ran past the ruck 🤷♂️

You’re possibly right

Jamie Joseph is not the messiahs Highlanders fans want. We have gone backwards…
Hey hey hey! That’s awfully negative of you! The southerners won’t like that opinion!

It’s the fact they can sit back on years on winning and experience. When things go wrong they can simple go back to what they know. The highlanders don’t have that luxury
