    MP having a scrum and lineout that functions makes a big difference. Savea looks past it.

    And that will be the last time I pick the Highlanders to score the most points or win by 17+.

    Too easy for MP on that last try

    I'm a landers tragic , this 40mins has shown me all i need to see .. pre-season results meaningless (obviously ).. and looks like another rinse and repeat season of lackluster, inconsistent performances ahead of us.

    Discipline is woeful, clean outs non-existent at ruck time and I have very little faith in our halves..... Fakatava will go from the sublime to the ridiculous as we have come to expect .. and Patchell will shovel the pill, kick aimlessly and be invisible on defense -- hope I am wrong

    Patchell will be targeted by a lot of teams I'd say.

    @Bovidae He needs to crash more, he's dangerous on the carry.

    And yes, Mafileo on the TH side makes a huge difference so far. James Lay scrummaging well too.

    @Mattasaurus Is Hicks available? He's got more "mongrel" than the locks out there.

    Great to see him back out there after his run of injuries.

    @Tim I'd like to see Cam Millar given some serious game time ...

    I guess I'll give this JRK guy a pass mark.

    If the Highlanders didn't have bad discipline, they'd have none. It's keeping MP in the game.

    MP ball is nice and fast... they just need to hold their structure a couple of phases longer

    The goal line drop out from a kick into goal is the absolute worst rule.

    The quality of MP's forward reserves is going to be critical here.

    Fakatava has suddenly stopped taking the couple of steps b4 passing and it looks sooooo much better

    @Tim I don't hold much faith in this current front row.
