@kiwimurph fine. And playing teams that will beat them by 30-50 points a match will fix that?
Landers are only 15 up and trying to give up points as fast as they can.
Make that 10 points kick to come
I quite like the force. Scrappy is the word for it. Its not pretty but they work.

@derpus said in Force v Highlanders:
@antipodean you think losing 95% of the games we participate in will increase participation? How?
Jesus wept chicken little - you're a week into the comp.
-
@kiwimurph so what is it that the Rebels have been missing?

They're the plucky underdog who will never threaten the status quo.
Easy to like.

Sounds like the Chiefs in the 2000s, so there might be hope. Maybe its because they have some older heads out there, but they keep themselves around it (if not in it).

They play a dead boring style for the most part, have little to no star power and the one star they do have hardly ever touches the ball and hasn't scored a try this season.
This seemed to really coincide with Wessels arrival combined with exodus of star players.

It's not name calling to accurately describe your whining. If you don't like it, don't watch it and don't come here crying about it ffs.

@antipodean no. I love rugby and this is bullshit. I will advocate for what i think we should do.

@derpus said in Force v Highlanders:
@kiwimurph or just create a domestic comp? Dont have to deal with any of this nonsense and unlike you blokes actually have the population for it.
You have the theoretical population for it, but, they're all watching bogan rugby and aerial ping pong.
You carry on like Oz teams have never been competitive and never will be competitive - did you just start watching rugby last year?

@antipodean alright, will do.

...back to the a actual game
Read the nz time so was all ready for a later kick off, good old Stan meant I could watch delayed when I realised
Far from perfect but we looked like we were playing with confidence which is fun, so wish we still had fakatava
Gregory continues to be real solid in midfield and even sio looks better on the wing, wish some had read my posts earlier!
Anyone hear what happens to Gilbert? Hope he’s not injured again
Himeno is a player
Think we could have kicked on and thrashed them but they fought back a bit and only some goal line defence saved us, two or three turn overs on our goal line in quick succession
Over all happy
