Tahs playing the Crusaders in CHCH, I'd have to favour the home side, especially as they will bounce back more strongly than the Tahs. Crusaders hitting their straps and playing their usual game, instead of that wide-wide lateral bullshit earlier this year.

Heh, one notable tackle missed by JOC (James O'Connor) against McCabe, and he's a turnstile. I don't have the stats but I'm not sure that he was that bad at making tackles. But then again, someone could prove me wrong and show that he led the competition in missed tackles...

Went up the ladder in the GGR league but still forever behind. Was in the top 500 ranked for the round at one stage but got a reality check!

Aye aye captain Brok Harris

Jesus Christ, both teams are as hopeless as the other

Highlanders should stop with the fucking quick taps for their benefit. They almost always make a mistake in the following ruck

Real cripple fight. I thought the Force were bad, but the Highlanders really are average.

Canno rehashing the same shit every time he's commentating a Force match.

Is Angus Ta'avao playing this week? If not I'm a prop short!

Tahs looked flat, which contrasted with the Rebels passionate defence in several passages of play. Edit: Surely if Deans gambles on playing Mowen at 6, Higginbotham must be the shoe in at 8. His tight play has come on in leaps and bounds, and edged out Palu this game.

Woodward sparking all the good play for the Rebels

Barnes cramping up again?

I'd say it's more comical then disturbing

Great game to watch. Rebels look switched on and Tahs less so

He's talking about Nick Cummins

Who has said he's an arrogant dickhead? No one would make that wild generalization unless they know Quade personally. Also, anyone who follows him on twitter knows that Quade enjoys fifa and plays fifa with fans if he's on tour for example, or plays touch

Rene Ranger's turnover rate is really no surprise. He, for better or for worse, will usually offload in contact to keep the play going. TJ Ioane's stats are a little skewed, though, because he's been playing primarily from the Highlanders bench, coming on for Wheeler? after half time. It still...

I think it's fair to say that it was not a good weekend on the whole for TMOs. And Joubert got the tap on shoulder from Lyndon Bray.

Ewen, I hope you get the Wallabies job. I can't wait to see the special things you and Quadey do together at the Reds, at the international level!

Marto is a great man, why can't I pay tribute to him? ;)
