I wonder why they've moved Whitelock to 6. ABs request?

god i fucking hope not

Bench is 5-3, Hammington, Gatland, Hunt?

I can't see it being an AB request, the ABs are not short of 6's, just short of one shouting I'M THE FUCKING GOD OF SIXES, MUTHA FUCKERS! like Kaino did

@Machpants No, it's 6-2. Hunt is a loosie.

@Stargazer Holy shit yeah, that confused me! I was conflating Saders Hunt! Man the Landers need to share some of their loose forwards around!

Absolutely puzzling with Hunt, I just don't see why the preference for Lentjes, let alone such a strong preference that Hunt gets next to no time.

@Bones Lentjes was good vs the Blues.

Was good at tackling, not much else. Hunt is always good.

@Bones Hunt is a better attacking player, Lentjes a better defensive player.

I'm far from convinced of that! Based on what?

@Bones my perception, and stats...
HUnt makes less tackles (on ave) with a higher miss rate...Hunt has made 0 turnovers so far this year, concedes more penalties (just on ave)

Hunt makes more carries and carries further and makes line breaks.

Vaea Fifita is just biding his time, you'll see.

@taniwharugby Yep I thought he was one of the best out there.

Ryohei Yamanaka, Gerhard van den Heever, Josh Timu, Rahboni Warren-Vosayaco, Semisi Masirewa, Hayden Parker, Fumiaki Tanaka, Hendrik Tui, Dan Pryor (c), Grant Hattingh, Luke Thompson, Mark Abbott, Hiroshi Yamashita, Nathan Vella, Pauliasi Manu

Reserves: Shota Horie, Alex Woonton, Takuma Asahara, Tom Rowe, Ben Gunter, Kaito Shigeno, Yu Tamura, Jason Emery

Which team is the highlanders?

Ken Laban fukwit Highlanders front row are the talk of the rugby world fukin hell

@Chris He has surprisingly little knowledge of the game he has been commentating on for years.

@Stargazer yeah this is going to be painful listening to this bullshit

Dang lots if hate for Laban on the fern.

And my favourite Referee Ben O,Fukwit,useless,Crap

Sunwolves could be in for a serious touchup here. They look awful.

Awesome kick from Ioane.

Well according to Ken Laban we are witnessing the greatest front Row ever to be seen so the Sunwolves are doomed

Fuck me dead I picked the Sunwolves for the upset. Feels bad.

My biggest wish for this game is O’Fukwit gets mistaken for a Highlanders player with that shirt and gets smashed

One year ago (or was it two?), there were people (including in the media) saying that Faddes should be an All Black. I didn't see it then, and I certainly don't see it now. Why isn't Josh McKay playing?

@Stargazer yeah don’t understand that I rate McKay he has impressed every time he has been given a chance
Who touted Faddes being an Allblack on here his Mum and Dad

Laban you idiot a try ????

Can't make out whether the Highlanders are on fire or the Sunwolves are just crap...

Bs call from O'Keefe. If anything, the Japanese player obstructed Walden.

Sunwolves are crap

No way. Good call. Sunwolves player held.

@Victor-Meldrew Bit of both.

Li just not a finisher

If the Landers don't switch off in the 2nd half, it's going to be a monster score.

Is Coltman the 3rd best Hooker at the moment he has got to be pushing Harris Hard

Am I the only one who wishes Smith wouldn't point out to the Ref where the ball is in the ruck at every bloody ruck... ?

@Yeetyaah

Yeah, there's been some nice touches from the Landers players

Forward pass off the tap and go . Holy fuck.

Wow Mark Hammett a scrum guru excellent Laban

Well done touchie pointing out to O’Fukwit that was a knock on as he would have no idea
