Highlanders v Brumbies

Come on Landers put the foot down on these ponies.

@antipodean Withy in now.. he usually makes himself known too

[Canes4life]

@taniwharugby must have been watching too many Ardie Savea highlight videos with that try.

Can't beat out and out pace

You can decide not to give him that kind of space though. Bad read to turn in and end up defending no one.

[SouthernMann]

Cam Milliar's performance certainly confirmed what I thought of him. He is a long way away from our big hope at 10. Faleafaga looks a lot more confident at this level.

[Mattasaurus]

@SouthernMann Hard to disagree, potential though.. he looked a bit deer in headlights at time...

[Bones]

What was happening on the other side of that scrum? Brumbies just all shifted left

[Mattasaurus]

@Bones aussies are masters of scrum shenanigans,....

Yeah he actually went better than I expected, some nice touches on attack - just a bit pedestrian

[antipodean]

What in the flying fuck was that from Harmon and Gilbert?

[akan004]

Gilbert isn't even NPC level. So shit.

[Canes4life]

Fuck sake Gilbert.

Gilbert at 12 doesn't help any of our 10s....

Fucky days

[Mattasaurus]

Deserved win to the ponies.

Landers look clueless on attack... no real playmaker leader. 2024 is largely going to be 2023 rinse and repeat unfortunately

I think it's really starting to take shape, just missing a beat.

[KiwiMurph]

Landers would better off giving Faleafaga game time ahead of Millar.

[Mattasaurus]

take the 3 ffs.... BP

Nah. The Landers last year got pumped. Regularly. Patchell has been the backline leader. Wasn't playing today. Gilbert as much as he should be a good player. He is just a bit nothing.

[antipodean]

I'd have gone for the lineout and drive
