Brumbies v Highlanders (round 3)
-
@Stargazer yeah not a bad idea, I don't recall ever seeing Hunt at 15 though...at least not that left an impression. Kinda interested to see how the 10/12 axis develops but as I said last week, we're a better side with Ioane in charge.

@KiwiMurph McKay was terrible on the wing in the preseason game against the Crusaders. Couldn't make a tackle. He was Leicester Fainga'anuku's and Braydon Ennor's speedbump.
@Bones Hunt has played for the Crusaders at fullback (from the bench) a few times. Looked more than capable there. But yes, Ioane at 15 would be a good idea, too.

Ioane at 15 would be better than Ioane at 12
I have a theory that we are about to see the re-emergence of genuine 2nd fives. Guys that can genuinely play 10 starting games at 12
Rugby is cyclical and it's been a while since we've seen it.Maybe in a couple of years the starting 12's around the country are Ioane, Plummer, J Barrett, Havili etc

@KiwiMurph whaaaat! Walden isn't injured now?
Matchbox was cake last week anyway. Be good to see Tei get back on the pitch.

@Bones looked like he had been out til 3am....
Is there something behind that?
Also looked like he spent the off-season only lifting weights.

@Bones was a poor matchbox 20 joke. It's 3am he must be loooneeely...
Haaaaa shit sorry. My bad.

@Stargazer Guess it'll come down to who plays better in the wet.

I think the Aussie commentators deliberately talk up the Nz teams no matter who it is , to make their performances seem better to their audience

@kiwiinmelb is that not a good thing?
