    Aaaaaaand Coltman fucks up the line out. Again.

    To be fair; he's young and new to the position so a complex skill like throwing will come eventually.

    No real progress this week. Good to see some hard yakka with all the tackling but the lineout and the decisions/mistakes on attack reflects the stature of the backs.

    Parkinson good again, nugget amazing.

    Overall a bit meh and another reminder that any win for the landers this year will be pretty big

    But not the canes, well done by them today, a fair win. Fans should have enjoyed that.

    @antipodean Yeah fair enough. Who knows, with a bit of improvement with his throwing he may go to a World Cup one day with the Abs....

    Too many mistakes, far too many.

    Huge games from Smith, Dixon, Parkinson, Frizzel, MMT. Honourable mention to Johnstone and Tokolahi.

    Matchbox and Coltman are shadows of their former selves. Maybe Walden made Thomson look good?

    Cracking start from Hunt, with a harsh call on Dixon. Maybe if that had come off he might have straightened his game out. Needs to stop the absolute clangers in between the odd dinky run and he might have a positive impact.

    Good to see Gregory come back solid.

    Geez, Hurricanes 89 tackles, Highlanders 189.

    19 made by Tokolahi (from 21 attempts).

    @Stargazer ok, looked like he was doing a lot more cleaning up than that, I would have said half the breaks around the ruck were tidied up by smith but obviously not

    That was a game we should have put away. It was disappointing to let them back in it.

    Jordie has made a huge difference to this team. We have a lot of solid but unspectacular players and are very reliant on a few players. Aumua was probably the standout. Always over the advantage line but the main thing was the much better lineout. He should get the start next week as well.
