Classic, bunch of blues fans jump on a Highlanders thread to say how shit their new signing is. You guys are so rabid on this you almost sounf bitter. Moan about him when he plays for you, moan about him playing for someone else...
Why don't we see how he goes eh?

@Bones Really? Blues players and signings get criticised all the time on here which people are well within their rights to do yet 1 player you guys sign gets criticised and you have a big sulk about it. As I said earlier, if he does well, good on him, if not, then so what? He's probably only a depth signing anyway as I would assume that McKay/Hunt will be preferred ahead of him.

By non-Blues fans!
In Blues threads!!!
Which is fine...

@African-Monkey Mostly by Blues fans, though.

Haha! You're a sensitive wee soul eh! That was a big sulk? No wonder you get so upset at people daring to criticise a blues player.
Most of the highlanders fans seem OK with the signing, Blues fans (apart from @Tim ) have just come on to slag off Collins and/or Umaga.
Definitely there for depth, he'll do well though and will look more than comfortable at super level and get plenty of game time.

@Duluth Exactly. The amount of traffic Blues gameday threads get especially after we lose to let us know about it is a lot which there's nothing wrong with of course. It'nothing to sulk about though.
@Stargazer Yeah and? When you support a team that hasn't made the finals for 8 years, supporters of that team are going to criticise under performing players on a sports forum that's usually how it works.
@Bones And so are you

Hah fucken hell, what a load of shit. Just like "big sulk". I see you appear to be one of those that must find offense in everything, the way the world is going eh!
I am what?

Oh, how so? Am I one of those many, many posters that see the blues lose and deliberately go on tsf, find the blues thread and give them grief about losing and criticise their Auckland players? Probably eh, they're bloody everywhere!

@Tim said in Highlanders 2020:
Collins is actually a pretty decent counter attacking fullback, but his kicking game is terrible, and he makes a lot of unforced mistakes. Positioning is often poor too.
I think you are being too kind about his counter attacking. A couple of good moments offset by his brain farts

When he gets moving forward he links very well and is good at finding space for others. Some brilliant brain farts, I'm picking they'll disappear.
He pulls the right faces though.

I remember hearing how much Tevita Li was going to carve up at the Highlanders once he got out of the Blues. Then he become a comedic target by Highlanders fans on here.
Who was saying that? Sounds funny but I can't imagine there being much evidence to back it up.

@Stargazer replacement for Rayasi next year at the Canes due to him being away with the sevens?
