Fuck there will be some bruised bodies after this, it has been physical.
Hugely physical game
Good for NZ players to be more exposed to such willing defence.

Gutted for Drua, well played and a great spectacle. Wish other crowds were as passionate.
Once they fix their set piece, home games for the Drua will be a tough ask for other teams.

good game.
Drua have lots of potential and loads of attack. Same issues as a lot of PI teams though; set piece, kicking and unforced errors. This comp with good coaching will be bloody good for them; harness some structure and that physicality and they will be dynamite.
Fun team to watch, liek MP. Roll on these guys actually having a preseason!

The Dura are a heck of a team to watch. Some upsides for the Highlanders. I thought CGB looked to get some confidence back. Tu'u looked good. Fakatava played with a bit more structure. Paea is on borrowed time and so is Gregory. Timu played club rugby today, so can't be far away.

I don't blame @akan004. I have enough trouble remembering who is Josh and who is Jack, let alone Peter and Thomas!

Can't believe my Stags signed Gregory up... 🙄

It's possibly been mentioned but fucking hell, the Drua player that dives on...is it Gibson when he scores a try? Right on top of him, knees into the ribs/kidneys, well after he scored. Didn't notice if he got punished during the game but that sort of shit should get a lengthy ban also.
Is he related to Clarke?

First time I've really seen Tu'u. Looks a real prospect.
Not a big Clan watcher? Even more impressive given against Drua. Seemed to stand up well to their physicality.

As much as any other team I guess. Just that he's never really stood out for me before.
