^true. Gee, iffy try there. (Banks) Abysmal defense. They look like a completely different side the Highlanders.

Yeah, got dusted by the Brumbies and their 'mauls', getting smacked now. Should have rested them separately I reckon. He threw it out this week "at least they'll be rested for the finals". That'll be no good playing them all away though. Highlanders back line is completely on the back foot...

I say bollocks to that. Highlanders only 9 points behind. Hurricanes last two games, the Highlanders and Chiefs. They could have realistically lost both and only picked up 1 point while we just needed to beat them and the Blues with some bonus points. Given one of the home teams will always...

Oh get stuffed. How about the fact that Thrush COMES STRAIGHT IN THE SIDE OF THE RUCK TO BEGIN WITH AND HOLDS ONTO A PLAYER ON THE GROUND?

Bonus point try! Looking forward to next week. Hopefully the Hurricanes will be complacent with their table position.

Agreed, would be a bloody shame to lose it from here. Sumo is slipping as well, getting a bit stale, kind of like Maloney over here in Oz. This locks up a final at the least for the Highlanders. Bloody good season. Woohoo, game over. 1 more try please.

According to (b) above I'd say it was a try but it was against the Chiefs. So all good eh. Think he said "colder than a homewrecker's heart". Rubbish penalty..

Try time. Give the ball to Naholo, 100% it will be try time, at least 5 out of 10 times... Sopoaga adds the icing from the side to make it 18-3, 46 minutes gone.

Should have been a try.

Time to get out the rule book. Mackenzie junior denied a try, missed grounding it completely with hand or arm. "Grounded it" with his hip. In my unbiased opinion, I agree with the TV ref, never controlled. 11-3 at half-time. Only 1 person watching apparently, lol.

11-3 Highlanders after 30 minutes Try to Osborne. Beats 2-3 players from 10 metres out, such a good finisher.

6-3 Highlanders after 20 minutes. Scrums even, tight game, freezing temperatures.

Highlanders taking on the Chiefs in Invercargill, both looking to fit into the top 6. 5 degrees on the night.

Brumbies auditioning for a choir with all the singing they're doing. Not a good one either. Classic SA backline play.... good game. AND AGAIN.. classic SA backline play.

Brumbies are deadset pushing full tilt on the engage. The one they don't they get rammed. Love Pollard and Pocock.

^^Fair points, fair points. We'll see how he goes down in 'foreign territory' Invercargill this weekend, haha. Looking forward to it.

I stand by my (half-time) comments. He made a lot of errors in the first half and he still can't kick for goal. He did have a very good second half though. AND OF COURSE, he is young, has the potential.

Eh, I though he had quite a shit first half actually. Made a lot of errors, and he can't kick for goal. He did have a very good second half though.

Well, highlight plays, not surprising they would be out wide surely. I seem to remember thinking he was quite a good player when he played for us. Anyone can look good in a team that's playing well though, and vice versa. Must be disappointing to be a Reds fan now. How'd they throw away a team...

Not too fussed about this McKenzie bloke. Error prone, thrown about 3 forward passes not picked up, poor kicker at goal.. Bulls have not been getting the rub of the green this game..
