Brilliant Tahs try.
Two poor errors from Gilbert
Landers fans keep blowing him, I have no idea why.
Im a big landers fan .. and not hearing many talk highly of him (goal kicking aside)

I must admit I have been on the bandwagon but he makes too many errors and doesn't seem to have a natural position
-
gawd that was an awful period of play
-
this is devolving into a cripple fight

Is it possible to mute Harrison?
You don't enjoy hearing a word salad devoid of meaning other than to reassure himself he's clever?

In the 2024 Highlanders thread, the comment was made that Gilbert should be your preferred 12 - ahead of TUJ and potential signings such as Evans / Plummer etc. He's not that quality.
-
A brain dead decision by Fakatava to get someone deep without an angle to kick.

None of those players are at the Highlanders. He is the guy we have. Is still youngish and is learning the role.

Fakatava is so hot and cold... just doesn't seem to be developing better decision making....

@antipodean said in Waratahs v Highlanders:
Gilbert is being a bit shit so far.
He misses a lot of tackles, like on Perese.

I believe it was you who suggested that Gilbert should be selected ahead of TUJ.

Edit:
The comment was made earlier in that thread (when PUJ was suggested as a signing) that the midfield would be:
12 Gilbert
13 PUJ
23 TUJfollowed by comments about why not an UJ midfield, followed by at least two comments suggesting that Gilbert should be your 12 above TUJ with PUJ in the team.

The Tahs definitely looked like the better side in the first half. They looked very well coached and seem to have all bases covered.
That said the Landers have the firepower to get on top in the second, just need to reign in the silly errors.

Yes I was. As mentioned TUJ isn't there and won't be back. A midfield of Tele'a and TUJ wouldn't be a solution either.
-
Would love to see Gilbert using his size more - he's a big unit - hit the line at pace - make yards and set up quick ball... he appears to be in two minds most of the time in my opinion - ( too often trying to be a playmaker rather than challenging the line)
-
Interested to see what happens when Withy and Harmon come on. I hope they are put on straight after the half

I've edited above to show why that comment doesn't matter. My point is that you guys wanted him above TUJ.
Crazy and if the feeling was that a UJ midfield wasn't wanted by the landers, good job you lost him.

The Tahs look more likely to be accurate over another 40mins.
