Brumbies v Highlanders

[Damo]

Lovely, but sooo many chances blown in the lead up. Still pretty pessimistic about this.

[Stargazer]

Good game to watch thus far. A lot less annoying than the Blues' first half.

[Mattasaurus]

This isn't a good Brumbies team... landers making hard work of it.... need to protect smith more at back of rucks.... bench and fitness to decide the game... but fardy always good for a yc too

Fekitoa a beast on d....but his offensive options are a worry

[antipodean]

@Mattasaurus It's a very limited team still playing Jake ball. People got all excited when Larkham became coach, but he's shown no promise that his talent has been absorbed into their style of play.

Fekitoa's issues can be rectified by coaching.

[Damo]

So many errors. We should be right in this If we can cut out the mistakes.

[Damo]

Touch law has changed but commentators don't seem to realize.

Aaron Smith has been very poor tonight.

Maybe a mixed bag..... been very good in patches

[Mattasaurus]

Banks brought on to take the 3s

[Mattasaurus]

Fuck off no different to Brumbies in first half.... only part of refs game I'm not happy with

[Canerbry]

ASmith not enjoying not having the armchair of the All Blacks pack, handling pressure not a strong point.

[Damo]

I don't think ASmith has been too bad. Lot of shite ball to deal with.

[Stargazer]

I can't believe they didn't see that high tackle on Wheeler. Should have been a penalty try.

[Stargazer]

Yessssss!

[Mattasaurus]

Great stuff

[antipodean]

Well done Clan.

[Damo]

Yeah but we're in the poop now.

[Mattasaurus]

Its the Brumbies to lose from here

[antipodean]

Can't believe they haven't gone for a lineout -> maul.

[Damo]

Oh well. Worst nz team v top Aussie team, so we're going better than we should.
