Highlanders v Brumbies

[Bones]

Good to see Fakatava taking kicking lessons from Hunt

[Damo]

Horror start for the Highlanders.

I don't know how it is still 0-0.

[taniwharugby]

Highlanders very sloppy so far...brumbies too I guess but looking sharper

[Crazy Horse]

This game is like last night in the way the Brumbies are getting quick ruck ball. Noticeably faster than the respective NZ teams.

Yeah and noticeably messy for Fakatava to deal with. Brumbies flying in the side, but Highlanders not even staying on their feet or setting properly. I think one of the best clears on our ball was Hunt!

Would you look at that, intentional knock forward and no card 😁

It wasn't intentional for a start.

Just because the ref said it was intentional doesn't make it so...

[Tim]

Brumbies all over them.

He mistakenly reached for the ball? Interesting.

Highlanders still in the changing room. This could get ugly.

[Damo]

Weakest NZ team v strongest OZ team so we shouldn't be too surprised.

Hope we put a decent fight.

Poor rugby players with no control over their actions! Tough life.

[Mattasaurus]

A lift of intensity required from the landers

He tried to catch a pass that came near him. Even with the new interpretation I didn't think it was intentional

[Mattasaurus]

Remember when nz teams drew and passed in the 22 😩

When I have the time I will explain to you the difference between intentionally trying to intercept the ball and intentionally knocking the ball on 😀

He intentionally stuck his hand out in hope. Didn't try to catch it at all.

[KiwiMurph]

Koroi would be a better option at 10

For one, you might try to catch the ball rather than slap at it I guess?

[Crazy Horse]

I feel like I am watching last night all over again. All we need is a card. NZ team getting penalised left right and centre. Struggling with the pace of Brumbie ball.
