@Bovidae I see that the three injury replacements for Graham, Hoeata and Weber are all in the reserves. Who is the starting hooker? I assume he's there to replace Harris and that Elliot will be the main starter?
Very pleased to see Laulala back in the squad, as well as Bird. Still no Allardice though. Will be interesting how Karpik goes.

@Stargazer Tuake’iaho - he played in the 10s. I saw a bit of him play at schoolboy level for St Paul's. He also played no.8 due to his mobility and ball-carrying.
I'm sure Hika will start vs Highlanders. Liam Polwart must have an injury niggle. Brayden Mitchell is also training with the Chiefs as the temporary replacement for Harris.

@Stargazer Cheers. I thought you'd have a fair idea!
Enari playing and Fukofuka not is pretty interesting, because Fukofuka is in the official squad and Enari isn't - though I'm inclined to think Enari is Robertson's man and Fukofuka isn't.
Very interesting to me that he's starting the final trial ahead of Hall and Drummond - especially when a lot of the rest of the starting team is first choice.
Yeah - you'd expect Taufua will play either 6 or 8 in Read's absence - is that a pointer that Samu has the inside running right now (Douglas is another that wasn't an original squad member)?
Todd/Samu/Taufua would be a very short loose trio.

@Unite Looking good. Best man, so far, the best, Liam Squire. Very very busy. The best man
Fixed it for you. Gotta get those Trumpisms right.

Good try scored by Harry Jones for the Tahs. Robinson kicks the conversion attempt against the posts: 8-12 Landers
During the first quarter, the Landers were mostly on attack with the Tahs defending. Now, it's the opposite and the Highlanders immediately leak a try. It's going to be interesting, because the Tahs are getting into the game.

Everyone in Oz got the live stream? Think its region blocked so if you're outside the Great Brown Land I think you're out of luck
