Highlanders 2025

A losing bonus point against the Chiefs next week and we may avoid the wooden spoon.

Ref was awful tonight, but four missed penalties is very costly in a big game like today. Hope these Josh Jacob rumours are true… How about De Groot and Ma’u playing 70 minutes, huge from them. Need to keep Lasaqa around next season 💪🏾

Not sure if he is returning to Super Rugby in New Zealand or not, would be a good addition to the Highlanders at 10.
Fly-half Morgan to leave Ulster after one season
Ulster confirm that New Zealand-born fly-half Aidan Morgan will leave the club this summer "by mutual consent".

It won’t rain forever. We have picked up more losing bonus points (7), than any team has since 2017.
Only the Waratahs have ever got 8, and that was in an 18 game season…
How did the Waratahs go the following season?

Came third. If it is the 16/17 seasons. The years were in those stupid conference formats though. Another year they went from 13th to second.

Just a bit of a reality check around Morgan. He is currently the third string 10 for one of the worst teams in the URC. There might be more to it. But on the basis of where he sits in a poor URC side, the argument doesn't appear compelling for him to be the man to turn our fortunes around.

Hearing that Dunshea has been resigned , on the condition that he sits on a bike all pre season lol

It would be cool to get some of these guys back in New Zealand.
If they are good enough.
There isn't much about Morgan's recent history that says he is anything close to the player we need.

Lol Morgan isn’t the guy. He was limited at best when at the Canes. Don’t sign him Highlanders.

On a side note. Terrible to read the passing of former Southland Times reporter Jamie Searle. Was all about the racing industry and Southland as a whole. Did a bit of work with Jamie about seven years ago. Was a very kind bloke.
