Waratahs v Highlanders

[frugby]

Maybe I'm underestimating the Tahs, but I'm not convinced by them just yet. That was an average Crusaders side, with a few flukey tries to boot. On another day, I suspect the Saders run away with that game. They were flogged Round One.

The Highlanders have previously struggled in these games, because we haven't had a backline capable of pouring on the points, so it inevitably came down to fine margins. 10 tries in two games is a cracking start, and there is no reason why that doesn't continue.

I see something like 38-29 to the Highlanders.

@frugby yep mate , I have the Clan in my picks too. I not sure if it my heart nudging my head one way, but I can see them sneaking this.

They should move the Super Round to Sydney.

That's a horrible call, TT wasn't even on the ball 🤣

Heart wants landers..... but I tipped Tahs.....

Glad to see some discipline being enforced with the boys being stood down..... culture has been pretty loose last year or two...and that leaked in to their performances.

[Mattasaurus]

Bit fortunate..... but we'll take it!!!

[Canes4life]

Great start by the Landers. 10-0 after a couple mins.

[Bones]

That looks like a bullshit call. Could've sworn those guys were next to Patchell when he dropped it.

[Bones]

Broughton is shiiiit

[Grooter]

Fakatava looks good

[Mattasaurus]

Glad to see those ones being called

Good call on that attempted turnover - balancing on elbows / forearms has become too common

[Bones]

Discipline going to shit again. Ainsley you should be setting the standard not giving away all the penalties.

Feels silly to give up three then get a chance to get them right back again - and not take it.

[gt12]

And now they give up 7.

Terrible.

[gt12]

That was a cracking offload.

[antipodean]

Gilbert is being a bit shit so far.

[KiwiMurph]

Brilliant Tahs try.

Two poor errors from Gilbert
