Reiko still doesn’t pass…
And rightly so when the defender slides out to the winger
More thinking of Telea on the inside…but he was probably marked as well.

@Mattasaurus It's true. Yeah he can be a ball hog at times, but on that occasion, he made the right decision.
You keep yawning.

I thought it was the right hold, Highlanders got defenders there
Take the tackle, keep the ball well behind the advantage line

Yawning... please don't criticise reiko on the fern
I criticise Rieko all the time.
I criticise Rieko for not passing.
That doesn't mean every time he doesn't pass it's him being a hog.

Game is set now. Blues haven't been great, but when they switch on they've got way too much for the Highlanders.
Clan's best hope was to keep it even closer and frustrate the Blues. That's gone now and I expect a pretty comfortable final result
-
@KiwiMurph Exactly. We criticize him when it's warranted. It wasn't warranted on that occasion.

@KiwiMurph et.al
doth protest too much... -
@mariner4life he's been a bt average most of the season, not as good as he was after he first made the ABs, although his scrambling d is always top notch, but rest of his game is too erratic

Please know something about playing centre before doing so.
LOL, joking. Requiring knowledge about positions would drastically reduce post count on the Fern.

Can we all agree Patrick playing very well at the business end of the season 👍

I'm impressed by his lineout work as much as anything. He's a dominant ball winner, timing is spot on at the moment
-
His ball carrying has been good too

That's never been an issue at this level has it?
-
Telea's workrate is enormous
And in stark contrast to the winger on the other side

Robinson standing in exactly the wrong place in both of those close rucks, not ready for the ball, but also stopping the long pass. WTF is he doing?
Confused by Christie taking an age to clear the ball from rucks.

I'm enjoying the Telea-Nareki tussle
