Highlanders v Jaguares

[Bones]

@Chris yeah Hunt should move to the Chiefs or even the Saders, he's a frikken AB and is simply a better player than Lentjes. It's bizarre he can't even get on the bench.

Parkinson is a tougher one - he's very young and the locks that have been playing, have been playing bloody well. He got more game time than I thought he would earlier in the season (but played well).

Hemopo and Franklin have been great, that's true. But what about Dickson who's got a lot more game time than Parkinson ?

Did I say all the locks except Dickson?

Daniel Hollinshead

Good enough for SR? I can't recall him standing out for BOP?

[Stargazer]

@Duluth I think we're running out of experienced 10s ...

[Duluth]

@Stargazer

Clearly

I just realised he's been in Japan so his NPC performances were from a couple of years ago

[Duluth]

Good start by the Jaguares

[gt12]

Pretty aimless kicking from the Landers so far.

[Stargazer]

That try was all on Ioane!

[Duluth]

That was classy from Ioane. Good long pass earlier too

He’s so far ahead of Black with ball in hand

[Bones]

@Duluth nice solid hit there on the winger too.

That was dumb from Lentjes.

Fixed

[taniwharugby]

fuck lucky the Jaguares let Dixon stand for so long doing nothing with his hands on the ball then rejoined the ruck...

[KiwiMurph]

That was some awful assistant ref work.

Camera angle shows ball go out about 10 metres out.

Assistant ref just gives it 5 metres out.

Cripes.

[Dice]

Probably the best game I've seen from Tomkinson with ball in hand. Even at NPC level, I've not seen him really attack like this.

..and again

I expect they'll fade away again

[Bones]

Some really ugly holes being left 2-3 wide of the breakdown by the highlanders. So frustrating, it's just lazy defence, people not scanning.

[taniwharugby]

Ioane has a similar style to Mounga...

[Stargazer]

Great passage of play from the Jaguares. Well-deserved try.

[Donsteppa]

A mixture of flailing and noncommittal defence there...
