Gregory isn't the most natural baller eh, that was a pretty awful hospital to Hunt when he should have put him away. Can't fault his tenacity though.

Hes more a flanker than a back. Just with some speed

There's a lot of talk about how hard it is for the reds to come back from their winning final, so obviously the ponies are going to smash the crusaders

Yeah it's seemed a bit weird how the chiefs and saders have been ignored in that regard.

Wait no

Well played Highlanders, great win

[Derpus]

Australian champions suffering record loss in the opening game.

[taniwharugby]

Reds do look like they can play, but for long patches they looked clueless and bumbling

[gt12]

Not a great start for the new competition, but let’s see how things turn out at the end of the weekend.

The Landers will be rapt though, great start against one of the best teams they’ll face.

[nzzp]

Six tries to three. Crikey.

[Machpants]

So much salt on The Roar

[Yeetyaah]

Well it wasn't pretty but the Landers smashed them. Doesn't look good for the rest of the comp.

Aaron Smith missing his pre game nap 😂

Landers also beat up the saders. It'll be interesting to see how this goes this weekend

[Yeetyaah]

@machpants true but the Landers were on fire in that game. This one both sides were a bit frantic.

This may have been mentioned but I don't think the Highlanders managed a try from their lineout drive in all of SRA, but tonight they get three.

[KiwiMurph]

Why do I get the feeling Tony Brown came up with that game plan.

For most of the season yeah, think we got a couple late in the season

I've thought that as well... but then remembered that they're both famous for their tee-total celebrations/commiserations.

Not all is lost gents, looks like i'm 1/1 in my league tips.
