Highlanders vs Chiefs
-
bit early to be writing people off though isnt it?
Not to mention how often players have been shite all super season then turned it on in black...
That said, Aaron Smith's stocks took a hit last year, has a big hill to climb

I may be having a little bit of a troll tonight. Just a bit through.

An abyss of talent between BFA and Faddes.

@antipodean TBF there is an abyss between BFA and most other 15s (and 14s)

True. Although, in this squad it's a Mariana Trench.
I think the Highlanders midfield has been quite good this half.

Big win to the chiefs , an away win there is pretty valuable

Not exactly the stupid rugby you expect from a NZ side.
Highlanders reserve tighthead was born with a single brain cell quite clearly
-
Two intercepts, a piece of set piece brilliance, and a shit load of tackling and guts. It's like the glory days of (pro) Springbok rugby.
Rarely will you see a less deserved bonus point win
-
@Stargazer fuck off it does!!

It was like the Highlanders had been practicing heaps but hadn't learned all their lines, lots of set piece moves that came to nothing and some shithouse individual performances. They had no answer for the Chiefs' 22 defense.
TKB, DMac join Rieko in the team of the week.

Defence like that can take you a long way in a competition.
Landers can take some solace in what they created. Some more accuracy and patience, they'll do fine.
Can't say I was impressed with Fraser's refereeing, but good teams manage it and the Chiefs were superb in that regard.
