@KiwiMurph I like him, but his error rate is seems to often be too high.

94% humidity there tonight
Handling errors galore in this game was highly predictable
@SouthernMann said in Reds v Highlanders:
Jaxk Taylor the pick of our guys so far.
Just as you say that!

That's better than a few hookers going around NZ currently
Two back rowers standing there staring at a ruck that’s under pressure and almost gets turned over. Ffs
The Reds have identified how short the landers get on defence after 3-4 rucks. The space is always there
@Bones said in Reds v Highlanders:
Pretty quality trolling playing Split Enz constantly
Will most of the guys in the team even know who Split Enz are?!
That was some rather shit defence. You could see that Highlanders were two players short after Reds had a few phases of slow ball. Huge gap was obvious out wide.

There seems to be very little communication
@Tim said in Reds v Highlanders:
Tavatanawai looks slow.
You couldn't put him on the wing. A foot race between him and Leicester Faingaʻanuku would be a real battle

I'd be bringing on FF even with all his inconsistencies after the break as Lennox is fucking awful.
am picking things to get real ugly and the TV to get turned off by about the 55min mark......
FF is the opposite of what you want in a game like this. The Highlanders need composure and leadership

Not sure where any composure or leadership is liklye to come from ... Jack Taylor maybe..... but we need far quicker service from the rucks.

Taylor doesn’t seem like a leader. De Groot obviously can’t. We won’t get quick service with a backrow that’s allergic to cleaning out rucks because they’re rather get a carry
Considering what the Reds have shown, we are fortunate to be within 12. Which is fine.
Our attacking threats have been poor and theirs have been really good.
We aren't out of it. We just can't concede quicky.
Hasn't been a happy hunting fround. Last time we played there, got pantsed 31 zip.
