Taking the 3 in a pre season should be punishable by death

[Yeetyaah]

McLeod and Bell both pulled from the game already

disagree, this isn't an exhibition game, im happy for them replicate real match conditions as much as possible

[mariner4life]

lol, according to the last 5 mins i watched, this is a "get a run in the legs" game given the state of the play from both teams. Scrappy as shit, and the ref totally buying in to it.

It was also the most entertaining 5 minutes of rugby i've seen in a while. Rugby is so much better when it is chaos.

The Crusaders scrum is dominating. Not a good 40 mins from de Groot.

The ref has certainly penalised the Highlanders a lot while ignoring the same from the Crusaders.

Giving them the Ben O'Keeffe experience before the season starts.

nareki looking injured

FIFY

Tangitau has to be on the right wing come round one. I thought when we signed him that he was going to be our best outside back signing since Naholo, and is already looking bloody sharp

[Bovidae]

What's the rule with golden oldie scrums? The Crusaders bring on a loose forward to replace an injured prop.

[Yeetyaah]

Manson defs dropped that but man he's a sharp player

[junior12]

Sevu has been terrible. playing himself out of a starting jersey for round 1

[Steven Harris]

Superb long pass from Toby Bell ,impressed with James O’Connor since hes been on

[Dan54]

@Yeetyaah . thanks for posting link mate, really appreciate that!!
Geez I enjoyed that game, bloody good preseason hit out!!

[Bovidae]

Was that Tangitau that Saifoloi sat on his arse with the fend in the leadup to Springer's try?

Final score was 29-24 Highlanders (HT: 10-19).
