Highlanders V Force

[Crash]

<p>What is it with head clashes in this game??</p>

[taniwharugby]

<p>dude gonna be stretchered off....</p>

[Crash]

<p>Lots of plaudits for A Smith, who aside from a minor handling error has been outstanding again</p>
<p>However liking the work of Tom Franklin, bit of an unsung hero</p>

[taniwharugby]

<p>how many tries do Highlanders have? 3 to Force 2? </p>
<p> </p>
<p>So need 2 more for a BP.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Force scrum gonna be weakened, can they go to GO with no specialist 2nd row??</p>

[taniwharugby]

<p>looked like obstruction in that play</p>

[Mattasaurus]

<p>no lifting should be fine</p>

[taniwharugby]

<p>nothing in it, but he could go for a break as they fell....</p>

[Gunner]

Sensible call there, I'm amazed!

[taniwharugby]

<p>he didnt lift him...</p>

[bbarcs]

A good TMO call. I am amazed.

[Mattasaurus]

<p>fluffy bunny twerp of a ref Briant</p>

[Donsteppa]

Hands like feet.

<p>I would have preferred to see Tei Walden rather than Thompson</p>

[Gunner]

FUCKING ERRORS, soooo frustrating.<br><br>
Still time to go I know, but this could so easily have been over as a contest already with just 1/4 less errors.

[Crash]

<p>What a beautiful scrum!! :yes:</p>
<p>Isn't A Smith happy about that</p>

[taniwharugby]

<p>so with thier starting locks out, and thier reserve one out, surely that is as bigger an issue of missing a front rower??</p>

[taniwharugby]

<p>25-20 with about 12 to go....</p>

[Crash]

<p>Parker's last act is to knock over a penalty 25-20 Highlanders</p>
<p>Marty Banks on...</p>

[taniwharugby]

<p>13+ not looking good...., this game could still turn on another highlander error</p>
