On which not, Ioane might be doing ok on attack with some good passes, but he’s a total liability on defense - made 1/4 tackles so far..

Tackles Walden would make probably. He shouldn't be at 12. Hunt should be on the bench.

Exactly

[Bones]

Alaalatoa is looking a fair bit leaner this year eh.

By the way, Hunt is 2 and 2 also. Just too many tackles being missed and if they are going to be small they’ll need to make them.

Can Smith stop screaming like a little girl?

Nugget has a serious dose of Itoje syndrome. Needs to stop doing it.

Itoje isn't screaming at his own team...

@KiwiMurph probably won't be the last either! I thought you might have had some background to it. I won't get hung up then if it's just a couple of missed tackles versing the saders.

I think its more in the context of him being suggested a possible AB bolter. Can't be missing tackles like that.

[Yeetyaah]

Highlanders not looking to the Chiefs' game as much as they were making out. For one the Chiefs could actually defend.

[Bones]

@KiwiMurph yeah I was as surprised at that as anyone. He's not there yet.

He always does it, and he's a fuck load better half back than any one else in NZ. He can scream like a hair dresser seeing a mouse as much as he wants, as far as I'm concerned

[Dice]

Only half time and the Highlanders have already missed 21 tackles.

Is it just me or is Brown rather Eddie Jonesish?

There of those by Josh Ioane. Not a 12.

[KiwiMurph]

Dickson is off. Whetton to lock.

[sparky]

Cullen Grace having a superb game so far. Made more tackles and more metres with the ball in hand than any other Crusader.

[Bones]

Alaalatoa knocks on and won't release the ball on the ground. Ref calls scrum. Sigh.

[Bones]

He was already past horizontal. Penalty at best for mine, but can live with a yellow.

[KiwiMurph]

Frizell finding new ways to not play 80 minutes.

[gt12]

Mo’unga to Ennor was on.
