Highlanders v Brumbies

[Tim]

@Crazy-Horse Just a breakdown penalty when they switched to a very long range and odd angle camera, so you couldn't see anything.

[taniwharugby]

Pretty cynical off side in that play

[antipodean]

Why is he passing to the side with no supporting players?

[KiwiMurph]

Bugger all urgency from Landers

[Bones]

Hunt with the airswing and it goes further than when he makes contact

[taniwharugby]

Highlanders miss Frizzells carrying, so many times they have gone multiple phases without getting over the gain line

[akan004]

Why go for a lineout when there's no time left

[antipodean]

That's amazingly dumb play.

[taniwharugby]

@akan004 need a try for a bp, but why playbthe narrow side

[Damo]

Brumbies deserved winners.

Highlanders can play better than that.

[KiwiMurph]

Brumbies deserving winners

Aussie rugby needed that.

Landers remind me of some of the Aussie sides - a real lack of talent amongst the odd star.

[antipodean]

Best Aussie team limps to a nine point win against the worst NZ team. There needs to be an improvement next week across the board or that crowd will be the sum total of Australian viewers in a month.

Playing like donkeys too

[Bones]

My favourite part of TUJ's game was that big break near the end when he arrived 2nd to do the pick and go - he was the tackled player at the previous ruck.

[Mattasaurus]

Brumbies deserved it and probably should have put more on us.

Landers
Scrum ok
Showed a bit of desire to get back in the game... But need to shelve the aimless kicking

[taniwharugby]

@Mattasaurus plus kick better when they needed to kick

Fakatava needs to get height or kick shorter. Easy pickings.

[taniwharugby]

@Bones Banks was missing touch, Hunt was getting them out but no distance...thier 3 kicking options weren't much help out there

If only there was a decent kicker in the coaching staff?

Oh and like DMac, Hunt should be a 9 (utility).
