@Bones said in Highlanders 2020:
@Siam I'm pretty happy with the squad considering.
I've noted your half full glass and tipped it into my half empty one😀
Yep, bring it on and we'll chart the progress of a justifiably written off team and look for some upsets and player development.
(A churlish supporter would recognize that we've got 6 seasons up our sleeves before we stink up the place worse than the aucklanders have 😎)

FYI for anyone who doesn't know that todays preseason game vs the Crusaders is live on Sky Sport 1 at 5:55pm.

@Daffy-Jaffy Sadly due to "technical difficulties" todays match is now only avilable on Highlanders facebook page. Sky don't deserve us.

@Daffy-Jaffy the stream has gone down 😂

Highlanders away jersey
adidas has today unveiled the alternate jerseys for all five New Zealand Investec Super Rugby sides for the highly anticipated 2020 season. From material to design, the jerseys have been crafted to reflect and honour the natural environments of each team. All 5 jerseys are part of the new adidas PRIMEBLUE range – made with Parley Ocean Plastic, which is recycled plastic waste intercepted from beaches and coastal communities before it reaches the oceans.From material to design, the jerseys have been crafted to reflect and honour the natural environments of each team. All 5 jerseys are part of the new adidas PRIMEBLUE range – made with Parley Ocean Plastic, which is recycled plastic waste intercepted from beaches and coastal communities before it reaches the oceans. As part of its ongoing mission to end plastic waste, adidas has committed to shift entirely to recycled polyester by 2024. To inspire rugby fans to join the movement, the designs of each teams alternate jersey features aquatic-style patterns and nods to the teams’ local environments: • The Highlanders jersey is designed to reflect the ocean on the southern Fiordlands. The water design provides a fresh take on the Highlanders’ tartan.https://www.allblacks.com/news/adidas-unveils-investec-super-rugby-away-jerseys/

More talk about Josh Ioane being a 15 or 12 for most of the year
Probably the best thing for the Highlanders. Not sure it's in Ioane's best interest though

That’s a bullshit article. The title suggests that he just refused to give him an apology to make him look even worse. Then the article says the he was very remorseful and did everything he could to apologise but the victim didn’t want it. He made one (bad) mistake and has done everything right since, the media can fuck off trying to make it worse and ruin the guys career.

I've been predicting that NZ rugby will move back to genuine 12's. I'm happy to see a coach like Brown agrees
However I'm not sure these are the right players:
-
Is Hunt good enough to start at SR level?
Probably not -
Is Ioane's midfields defence good enough?
Not yet
