    Sorta. A lot of the scrambling is great, but a better organised and accurate defence wouldn't need it

    A bit nervous about what the Chiefs will do next week. Especially coming off a shithouse performance against rhe Tahs

    Yeah I’ll worry about that next week. Will enjoy this win for now. Started to forget what it felt like

    He can do it all. In all seriousness, Cams first super game since Moana quite awhile ago now so expected a bit of rust. Happy he got through this game, was better than what Taine Robinson has put out there the last 2 weeks.

    I have to play old bugger low grade sport tomorrow. That doesn't go well with a hangover.

    Yeah, solid enough games with plenty to build on for the returning players. Miller might want to take some acting classes for those tackle "attempts" though.

    There aren't a huge number of quality 10s. We don't have any that you'd call finished products. My concerns with Millar tonight was how easily he got the ball ripped off him, and some of his defensive efforts. His goal kicking was trash. But he is a good goal kicker that will come back. Realistically, the 10s we have are what we have. Give or take for a few years.

    Will be interesting to see who’s selected at 9 next week. And if Howden comes to 6 and Haig goes to the bench. Looked a tad short of a gallop.

    Howden will be a welcome return if he is available. Only four fit/available loosies at the moment. Especially if Broughton is out again. Michael Loft played club footy today, and had to strip.

    Good win for the Clan. Holland was massive.

    I expect Haig to get to his usual ways but Howden looks like the better combo with the other two. Chiefs will be physical and fast.

    Hastie has to come back to start imo

    He's got a massive engine hasn't he? I got to say that anyway, as I been saying he will be 100 test All Black.
    Highlanders look better with all players coming fit again. They will still make it hard for a few teams yet.

    Renton and Haig mad a major difference at the breakdown. Major. Far from perfect, but hey, back in the winner’s circle!

    @Dan54 I'm a big fan but lock is an area of strength with Tupou Vai'i, Scott Barrett, Fabian Holland, Sam Darry and Patty T competing for three slots.
