Crusaders v Highlanders

[Kiwiwomble]

hunt to finally become one of us with a droppie to win it?

[ACT Crusader]

I never underestimate a game against the Highlanders. It’s just one of those things as a Saders fan. Our forwards will have to step it up because any sort of quick ball, the Smith/Ioane combo could do real damage.

@Bones Nareki to do Nareki and play shit which includes but is not limited to not passing the ball for a guaranteed try.

He's come right again, you should probably find new material.

He still owes me 3 hatricks and a match winner - dumb fluffybunny, we had the alzheimer Aucklanders on toast!

He's been practicing that for the opposition all season.

[Kiwiwomble]

@Bones thats harsh, i thought we mostly thought his form was pretty good since the re start

largely as expected

[Bovidae]

Back to a 6:2 bench.

[Kiwiwomble]

hunt can cover 10 and then mckay can drop to 15 if punivai come on....works i guess

i can just see us being a bit behind late in the game and what we really need is some fresh backs...and we'll have nothing left in the tank

Walden

[Kiwiwomble]

@Yeetyaah who?

[Yeetyaah]

They're not playing Walden because he's gonna sign for the Taranaki home franchise of the Hurric...oops I mean Chiefs

[KiwiMurph]

That's a good pack and quality halves.

Midfield is where it starts to go a bit haywire.

[Kiwiwomble]

@KiwiMurph on paper but thats the same pack more of less that got done by the blues...

I can see smith breaking to the blindside to try and put Nareki away as a go too move, scrum maybe under pressure so twisting to the blind

also at very least some discussion about a big/late hit from sio

[Nepia]

3 Magpies, but 2 more starting than the Canes.

[Yeetyaah]

I commented on the Highlanders post about the team naming asking what Walden did wrong and got an unexpected like on my comment

[Kiwiwomble]

@Yeetyaah wow....thats interesting

[taniwharugby]

@Yeetyaah ha, I saw that comment, I know who you are now

[antipodean]

@Yeetyaah Looks like it didn't take MMT long to be advised to not like posts like yours.

[Yeetyaah]
