Highlanders vs. Reds

[Tim]

Guy Millar

Another foreign prop in NZ Super Rugby ...

[Bovidae]

No Elliot Dixon. From 2016 AB to not even being in the 23.

[Tim]

@Bovidae He shouldn't have been an All Black in 2016. He was outplayed by almost everybody.

[No Quarter]

Sopoaga with a point to prove.

Cap him!

Great to see Lentjes and Pryor back.

[cgrant]

Is Hunt rested ? He's having a great SR season.

But probably should've made it in 2015 where he was an absolute menace throughout the season.

[Duluth]

A weak Reds side:

Karmichael Hunt, Izaia Perese, Campbell Magnay, Duncan Paia’aua, Eto Nabuli, Quade Cooper, James Tuttle, Adam Korczyk, George Smith, Caleb Timu, Izack Rodda, Rob Simmons, Taniela Tupou, Stephen Moore (c), Sef Fa’agase.

Reserves: Alex Mafi, Markus Vanzati, Sam Talakai, Kane Douglas, Reece Hewat, Moses Sorovi, Hamish Stewart, Jayden Ngamanu

[Hooroo]

@Duluth Is that also as strong as that side gets?

[Duluth]

@Hooroo

Kerevi & Higginbotham have been two of their better players.

They're picking more youngsters than normal too. 10 players 21yrs or younger and 2 guys on debut

[Tim]

This will probably be a massacre of a low skill team. Is anyone other than Highlanders fans actually going to watch it?

[Nepia]

The one time Malakai should have been a hungus and he passed it.

Naholo gets the try.

[Stargazer]

@Tim Of course, nothing better than the Reds getting butchered.

[Tim]

@Stargazer I'm gonna watch it too, but it's gotta be boring for most neutrals?

[taniwharugby]

@Nepia haha my thoughts exactly

Nice turn of pace by Squire on the opposite side in the lead up to it too

[Crash]

Great run by Squire - I'm thinking we could have done with that aggressive running against the BIL

[taniwharugby]

PT surely?

[taniwharugby]

so you lose 20m and advantage over?

[Stargazer]

Was that a high tackle from Quade earlier?

[taniwharugby]

@Stargazer looked like a deliberate knock with the try on to me
