Midfield scrum 30 odd out. And they kick it

Did you see the first 3 attack "moves"? Not sure I've seen anything like it.

Blowing a heck of a lot of opportunities. Get the feeling that's going to come back to bite us.

Attack is a generous description. It’s one off runners, pass to TT, or chip kick.

Those 4-5 phases by the Drua showed far more shape and composure than anything the landers have put out

Has Krusty the clown been in charge of the highlanders attack play this week?

Every week?

There was a.... wonderful... move off a lineout that involved a loosie running sideways and throwing a forward inside pass to a huge gap with no player.

Also the double pass back for a bomb.

@Bones it’s laughable shit

Landers92

Jonah Lowe what the hell was that lol

jimmyb

Is there a single set piece move where they dont do a one phase carry with TT? wtf was that

jimmyb

Haha those Dunedin lads look absolutely fucked

SouthernMann

It is currently 29c with 80% humidity. Nasty.

Landers92

No idea how the Landers are leading at the half but we will take it. The heat looks intense. Hopefully a better second half of footy coming up. Be nice to see us put the boot away a bit when we are inside their half

SouthernMann

I get a bit frustrated with how casual JRK looks most of the time. Often looks like everything is in slow motion. No urgency.

One of the reasons I miss Hurley. He looks like he is going at 110% with everything he does.

booboo

Or all three at once

jimmyb

Fuck those two shots of the dressing rooms gave two fairly different impressions of how the teams of feeling

SouthernMann

Rain might help.

The bench needs to be well utilised

Landers92

Nareki is having his worst game I can remember in recent memory. Get XTH on

jimmyb

The defensive structure struggles so much out wide. A loose forward should have been there.

Landers92

@jimmyb there was no need for Nareki to be in that tight to begin with. Tele’a had his man. To then get gassed and give up chasing isn’t good enough. Players have off games and it’s ok. Better to just get them off before it gets worse

jimmyb

That started with a dipshit play by TT.

Landers92

Nice try from the Drua. Crazy what happens when you don’t kick the ball away
