Highlanders v Bulls

[cgrant]

Parkinson's star has faded abruptly. The expectations were great thanks to a very good Mitre 10 Cup. What happened ?

[Bones]

@cgrant first season and all, he's played well in his appearances but then so have all the other more experienced locks.

[nzzp]

Bulls taking people out way beyond the ruck and looking for niggle ... and it's the first minute!

[African Monkey]

@cgrant Everyone at Ta$man seemed to be rated very highly for some reason.

[Gunner]

4.5 minutes in, the Landers looking equal parts dangerous and equal parts tits for hands with 3 knock ons...

[KiwiMurph]

Tomkinson makes a lot of errors.

[Bones]

King Luke looking every bit an AB so far.

The experiment of him at 6 was an absolute fail.

[Gunner]

Unbelievably untidy from the Highlanders, what are they up to 7 or 8 turnovers including knock ons, penalties and kicking out on the full all inside the first 8 minutes.

Great point.

[Stargazer]

Josh McKay's first Super Rugby try!

[KiwiMurph]

Bit of a minties moment for that Bulls back.

[Gunner]

Points on the board, hopefully that’ll settle them down.

There is something very Ben Smith-esq about this McKay kid from what I’ve seen so far. Might be the similar running style, but might also be the time he seems to have.

Terrible defence as I type by the Clan

[Bones]

Hammett said to watch Brits...so they did.

[Gunner]

That is a knock on, great work by the TMO

[Jailbreak7]

Yessssss no try

[Bones]

Geez that didn't look too clear and obvious to me...

[Stargazer]

Glad they spotted that knock on. For a moment I thought they'd get away with it.

Hah. I think I talked him up after his last game. Sorry Sio.
