Highlanders vs Hurricanes

[Canes4life]

Shout out to Blake Gibson, he was very strong for us tonight. Probably the best game I've seen him play for a long time.

[Machpants]

Actually, that angle showed the ball didn't get down at the end.

[Stargazer]

@canes4life I was quite happy with IWL's game. Looked really strong. Glad to have him back on the field!

[Canes4life]

@stargazer yeah he's made a big difference. We aren't going to reach our full potential if we keep selecting Prinsep/Blackwell though.

[Stargazer]

Disappointed Kereru-Symes didn't get game time. It's not like Aumua set the world on fire.

Totally, I'm sure he can't be worse at line out!

Think we should just reflect on them as Prinswell or Blacksep from now on

[Canes4life]

@machpants Aumua was a little off tonight but he's been solid for most of the year in that department. Hopefully a one off.

[Derpus]

@southernmann seemed a try to me or possibly double movement.

Held up doesn't seem to make sense to me.

[Bones]

Ok with the ref's call, Highlanders fucked up, should have just recycled.

[Yeetyaah]

Unluggy Landers. That last one would have been double movement anyway.

Apart from the OMG, this is a good post.

Probably a citing coming there,
Welts under the eyes don’t just appear,there must have been contact to the head.

[Bones]

@chris ahh yeah I see it now, scones his eye while his head is down rhen hits him in the shoulder/chest. I can see why the TMO missed it on a quick run through.

Heroic performance by the Highlanders after dropping a man early. That win for the Canes almost felt like a loss, we were far too passive in the second half, too much aimless kicking, a lack of assertiveness and aggression by my boys made it far closer than it should have been. At times the Landers looked like the team that had the numbers

[Stargazer]

@bones That's why it should have been a proper TMO referral. Not that quick look that they do when play continues.

We really looked like a team on the end of a storm week. I guess it's flush the dunny and move on, sometimes you just have to win ugly and that's what we did tonight.

@stargazer Evans should’ve gone off for an HIA then shouldn’t he if it was as bad as he made it out to be…maybe I’m blind but I can’t see any contact to the head I’m not saying it didn’t happen I just can’t see it.
