Highlanders v Waratahs
-
@pukunui not sure Nehe was ever likely to get much gametime anyway, but I thought Liam suffered a season ending injury?

@pukunui said in Highlanders v Waratahs:
Is NMS injured again? Him and Squire were awesome signings.
no, NMS has been named to play for East Coast, make me think his contract was only until the end of SRA or something and we're not interested in resigning him
-
@kiwiwomble When they signed him, it was for the remainder of the 2020 season and for the 2021 season. So that will be the entire 2021 season, because 1) they would have specified if it was only for one part of the season, and 2) they didn't know at the time there would be two separate comps.
-
@stargazer i just wasn't sure that if SRTT wasn't confirmed then it might have had an actual date to allow him to make other plans rather than just the end of "super rugby whenever that is"
just seems weird we'd let him go play for someone else when we're still pretty light on in the back due to injures
-
@taniwharugby I don't think Squire is even part of the Highlanders SR T-T squad.
-
@kiwiwomble I think they see it as similar to releasing someone to play club rugby.
-
@stargazer dont know if East Coast should take that as an insult
-
There's a bit of me that has a feeling hat NMS was never signed to play a lot of rugby. He was signed to mentor the likes Highlander's really inexperienced outside backs.
I wouldn't be surprised if he stays with the franchise next year as a coach.
-
@southernmann he ran the water like a boss!
-
I know many don't like him, but good to see Wheeler back on TV. At least he wasn't sent to Coventry for life.
-
Hint of obstruction
-
-
I wouldn’t have been surprised to see that given as obstruction, lots of bodies, well take an early try though

That looked dodgy to me.

Bit of a swinging arm by the tahs 6 on the try scorer

What's the theory behind kicking off and kicking it directly to Mitch Hunt.
Not sure he was the target...although they’ve just k Ike’s it to the same area again...just called Hemino harmon....that’s a bad one
