Preseason - Highlanders v Hurricanes

[Canes4life]

Bad miss there by Filipo. Canes looking like they should of had a game lst week. They look well off it.

[Canes4life]

Canes in. Sangster, Howden and Moorby have been solid for the Canes. O’Reilly, Cameron, Sinkinson and Filipo have been piss poor.

[Canes4life]

I always through Brett Cameron had a bigger boot. He’s hopeless.

[Machpants]

Filippo is the worst, but a bit of a shower

[Canes4life]

Good start to the half by the Canes. Higgins with a good carry, and then the Canes dominated the scrum led by Mafileo and Tosi. Good to see.

Canes warming into their work.

17-12 to the Landers.

[Machpants]

Ref still warming up lol, no way that's a try

[Canes4life]

@Machpants yeah should have gone back for the penalty.

[Canes4life]

That shouldn’t have been a try either. Clear knock on.

[Winger]

Kirifi

A slick new hair color.

[SouthernMann]

Happy with the Landers so far. Ricky Jackson has surprised me. Patchell, Harmon, Nareki, CGB and DLB have been good.

[Winger]

I'm a bit behind. But Canes lineout has been dreadful so far (first 20 minutes)

[Canes4life]

Typical pre season game. So many mistakes and players pushing passes etc.

[Canes4life]

I’m real worried about our 10s aye. Morgan is garbage, Cameron looks crap. Give the young gun Godfrey a run.

[Grooter]

Nice Try Tele'a

[Machpants]

Not much trust in canes defence, players joining tackles unnecessarily, leaving space near the ruck all the time

[Bovidae]

PPP was hobbling before he was subbed. Hopefully for his sake he isn't injured again.

That's some mullet on Tele'a.

Good to see him out there again, looks in good shape.

[Canes4life]

Hurricanes look like they are in a training run, not in a good way. Not committing to tackles fully, laboured running into contact and not fully committing to the breakdown.

I’m not too worried because pre-season results never mean anything but you’d expect a little bit more two weeks out from the start of the comp.

[Grooter]

some good defence by the landers

[Canes4life]

Flanders has f all impact to him for his size aye. He runs hard but literally makes no impact on contact. Obviously lacks power.

Brayden Iose looks much better at 8 for me.
