Highlanders v Sharks
-
<p>that was off the foot?</p>
-
<p>okeef missed that white hand in there</p>
<p> </p>
<p>edit - i stand corrected on the replay</p> -
<p>Shark hand in there...messy</p>
-
<p>Reds loss, Sharks loss could be very costly come the business end of the year...... stoopid conference biullocks system</p>
-
<p>rushed that</p>
-
<p>How shit are the Sharks?</p>
-
<p>game ends on a shitty Highlanders error.</p>
-
<p>2 very poor games in a row from the landers - Limas radar off was very costly too</p>
<p> </p>
<p>What concerns me the most is the incredibly poor options taken at times. Specifically quick line outs. </p> -

<p>Drop goal was a poor decision, IMO. Had to hammer away there. I think the pressure would have told in the end. It wasn't the time for it.</p>

<p>yep, they still had about 2mins at the time, they could get it a few more phases before the attempt, if needed, although the handing up till then they woulda dropped it!</p> -
Hoping that last play ends talk of Osborne being an AB. Totally fluffed another attempt at catching a high ball too. <br><br>
Not really rating Fekitoa this season either. So often it seems he gets the ball and goes for a run with little to no support and only looks to pass once its too late putting pressure on his team to clean it up. <br><br>
Ever since blowing that lead vs the waratahs they have looked rubbish. Whats going on? -

<p>Or put the Sharks under pressure for a penalty.</p> -

<p>Reckon the drop goal option was fine, he just missed a relatively straightforward one. It wasn't like every time a side got into the opposition 22m in this game that they scored a try.</p>

<p>Yeah, it's not why they lost anyway. The replacement props were terrible. Even given the red card, the Highlanders still should have won. They are a really good team but it will be hard for them to win the conference now.</p>
