You can’t blame the hookers when they have to throw to midgets. We are getting beaten at the jump.

You have an Argentinian international sitting in the stands, Tengblad might be taller than Holland, and we choose two midgets.

Everytime we get on attack we look for the chip kick. These piston wristed gibbons can’t tackle, keep it in hand.

Agree. The balance is never going to be good when you’ve got one shortish lock, 2 6s, and a small 7 and 8 on the field

And to Jamie Joseph. You’re the man who narrowly missed out on the All Blacks.

Fix this shit.

JJ sulking in the training shed again, giving them the silent treatment.

How about a chip and chase

Superb crowd mate. Afternoon footy. Hopefully they pull out a win to have you fizzed for the octagon

They just showed him giving them a spray?

No sound coming out of his mouth, literally not one word.

TT putting chip kicks in on counter attack. It’s clearly the game plan. A fucking woeful one

TT with an aimless chip kick.. ffs play to your strengths

Jeez Hastie using his hands to drag the ball to the back so much...

Can see how this will play out.... dumb option followed by dumb option followed by basic skill errors and what appears to me to be no urgency or will to go to war for each other.... hard to see the JJ influence on this team currently

@antipodean said in Highlanders v Force:

If they lose at home to the Force, then that's the season done.

I laugh when trolling actually start being accurate

The fucking fucking kicking

Another example of Fakatava shit decision making. Rushing the blind to players out of position.

FF inexplicably switches right back into the whole force defensive line with the receiver not expecting it at all.

The broken play was great until glacier Fakatava got involved.

His initial snipe blind was nice and then out of no where he wants to switch the way of attack and it goes to a flat footed player who then knocks it on. Unreal

Can not wait for Pledger to be back next season

Not one of those force offside players retreated.

Lovely try there. JRK nice vision. Finally a kick paying off

Well that justified the last 30 chip kicks we’ve seen

Tavatavanwai, incredible leading up to that try

TT looks so much better with the ball in hand rather than kicking it.... who would have thought?

The Fakatava shit is so perplexing, you would think the complete lack of urgency would mean he's making considered decisions. Just pick up the urgency if you're not going to use your brain man.

BOK is so fucking average...his matches always have horrendously officiated rucks

Hey hey hey, none of those crazy ideas around here thanks

That was good

Like Walker-Leawere for us I think some players just don’t have brains unfortunately.

Geez force playing like they're out on their feet in the 75th minute

Nice work Cam taking the line on there and getting an offload away for Nareki who then rips it to Tangitau. Lovely

Good shift EDG

Another shit clean out

Howden x2 terrible clean outs in a row

Lasaqa has been great today. I would say best on field for the Highlanders with Jim a close second

Fuck this team does the softest shit sometimes

Defence is great when lined up, but as soon as there's a man out of place it's atrocious.

That’s a superb try by Bridge, set up by Beale. What a combo.

Super try started off by Nareki, finished by Tangitau.

Sometimes these games of touch are fun to watch

cynical slowing of the ball in the lead up should be YC....

Lennox damn near almost bombed that by being greedy

Am I correct to say that was a crocodile roll?
