He'd be a great improvement on the turnstiles out there at the moment.

<p>Who'd have thought this would be the score after 15mins?</p>

Luke whitelock. All black.

[taniwharugby]

<p>must be JJ's influence on him....</p>

Loved that 40mins farking brilliant footy

<p>HT. 20 - 12. Highlanders kicking arse!</p>

Sumo with a weird first up question for Dagg, Nothing to do with disallowed tries, and everything to do with soft defence. The Crusaders backline D makes Damien McKenzie look like Jerome Kaino.

<p>It was, but some pretty average defence by both teams for periods though, obviously landers came out better from them</p>

I've always thought that due to the awesomeness of Sam Whitelock, the minor whitelocks were way overrated. The Highlanders No 8 Whitelock, however, is growing on me.</p></blockquote>

Jamie Joseph must have had something to do with this.

Great game but weird. How the hell the Highlanders have the bonus point is amazing. Where did this Luke Whitelock come from. Naholo looking brilliant - Taufua excellent for Crusaders.

[Mattasaurus]

Surely crotty comes on???

<p>About twice as much as Andy Ellis ??</p>

Faddes is making Fonotia look like a park footballer

Understatement of the century.

[gt12]

Does Dagg have a comb-over?

[antipodean]

<p>Is Crockett the most penalised forward in the history of the game?</p>

Jesus. How many times does Marshall need to be told to shut the fuck up?<br>
It's like he can't even hear me through the tv.
