Highlanders Named to Play Force in Invercargill | Highlanders Rugby Club Limited Partnership

Sunday afternoon rugby makes a rare appearance on the Highlanders calendar with a game against the Western Force in Invercargill. Head Coach Clarke Dermody has brought Andrew Makalio back into the front row for the important clash.

Can an NPC team beat an Australian Super Rugby team?

[Kiwiwomble]

@Tim taking swipes when we're down? thats low bro

[Tim]

@Kiwiwomble Well, with all those locks out this is more of a second choice Highlanders team.

[Kiwiwomble]

@Tim definitely when it comes to locks...but thats a first choice front row and flankers...probably all but one wing of the backline too.....

[Stargazer]

@Kiwiwomble I'd say Mikaele-Tu'u is the first choice no. 8; not Renton.

[Kiwiwomble]

@Stargazer ...yeah, thats why i just said flankers

[Bones]

Pretty happy with that, bench especially stands out as pretty strong, relatively.

But fucking hell, I know every coach has their blind spot players, why does ours have to be Hunt?

Good to see a jersey with hoops in SR

[Yeetyaah]

That's a red in the north

[Duluth]

Gilbert got embarrassed there

[Derpus]

@Yeetyaah its a red in any match not officiated by a kiwi.

[Winger]

Highlanders needed this attack as all force until then. 7-6

[Bones]

Love those force players thinking they'll be quicker than Smith's pass and trying to intercept it.
