Highlanders v Rebels

[Duluth]

Hunt has always been this shit. He was overrated because of who he played for

[Stargazer]

@Duluth Overrated, yes. Shit is an exaggeration IMO.

[Dice]

Good pace by Counties' legend, Andrew Kellaway.

[98blueandgold]

Our strengths have turned into weakness simply because NZ rugby has run out of players to service all teams. I would argue Highlanders are weakest team on paper NZ has produced for a long time!

[gt12]

The landers are just fucking terrible. I can’t see any way that they wouldn’t be better if they had Ioane at 10 and Walden at 12.

They have too many bad 10s on the field.

[KiwiMurph]

Our strength of our team is our AB 9-10. I know - let's split that up - put a worse player at 10 and also weaken our midfield at the same time. Genius.

[98blueandgold]

Hip hooray 😁

[Stargazer]

@KiwiMurph I think Mauger is the only who understands why he's doing that. You'd think the first few games would have been an indication that it doesn't work ...

[Stargazer]

Arrgggh Lentjes .. that looked so painful. Season over for the poor man ...

[Dice]

Rebels had a good chance of scoring then.

[98blueandgold]

From bad to worse! Prayers to James

I'd be pissed off the game was stopped to be honest.

[Stargazer]

@98blueandgold Psychologically, this could be devasting for the Landers in this game.

[Stargazer]

@KiwiMurph Health and safety of players comes first. The Rebels know well enough it would be the same if it was one of their players going down like that.

Rebels would argue it was nowhere near play and the healthy and safety of the player would be attended to exactly the same without the game being stopped.

[98blueandgold]

@Stargazer like they’re not f**ked already! But yep there captain gone ain’t helping

[sparky]

Mauger and Hammett are rubbish coaches. Insane to let them loose on a Super franchise.

[Stargazer]

@sparky Tony Brown is there, too.

[98blueandgold]

@sparky nothing to do with coaches, look at the team they have now! Lost faaar to much talent and have mitre 10 players out there.

[Duluth]

Meakes doesn’t get much credit. He’d go ok for the Wallabies IMO
