Waratahs V Highlanders 2011R17

[cyclopath]

Beale carves them up again. Dennis in after length of field stuff.

 

[minorbird]

Great stuff from the Tahs! I thought Beale butchered it when he didn't go left...but Burgess was johnny on the spot and they found a way to the try-line!

 

[GC]

Nice try. Kurtley again. Wrong option with the kick I reckon but it finally came off.

 

[Tangawizi]

Great try from the Tahs. Hope they go on with it and get a big bonus point win.

 

[GC]

TPN is crocked again as usual. Worrying.

 

[FairWeatherAussie]

15 minute mark, and Kurtley Beale already MOM!

 

[Riptide]

he really think Tahs are going to crush Highlanders, a hardworking kiwi side that really has been punching above its weight and has been found wanting deeper into the comp.

 

[ChargerWA]

I don't know one person that thinks like that.

Great work by Beale there.

Come on the Tahs!

Yeah, Apologies. I was grossly over generalising.

Kutley Beale for PM. Why he would want the 10 Jersey at the rebels is beyond me, he is made for 15.

 

[cyclopath]

I wouldn't count the Highlanders out yet - they are making inroads through the middle. Only very good defence keeping them out.

 

[cyclopath]

Tahs need a big scrum here on defence - they have had the edge.
And here's Vicks watching on.

 

[cyclopath]

And they do. Huge turnover there, still under the pump

 

[minorbird]

Taf is amazing.

 

[Bruwheresmycar]

TPN is a kamikaze

 

[cyclopath]

Hmm, pretty forward pass in that Landers break out missed by all officials.

 

[tigerland12]

Does anyone else cringe with fear everytime Tatafu makes a big tackle or run. I have this feeling that he is gonna get injured again.

Palu hammertime

 

[Maroon Army]

Taf to snap SOB in half at the World Cup.

 

[Riptide]

Any team that uses MacIntosh as a first receiver in open play at midfield is really f**king limited.

 

[GC]

Highlanders outplaying Tahs except for Beale's heroics.

 

[cyclopath]

and try to Highlanders - should be 12-7 in a minute. Tahs need to get field position happening.

 

[Riptide]

Tahs have the edge at set-piece time, and have the talent behind the front 8. They just need to commit more numbers to the breakdown!
