@NTA Yes, he's going well; even on target from the difficult angles.

And its a bit windy, too

[Stargazer]

The Highlanders really need to work on that line-out. It's been bad all evening.

[Stargazer]

Good try from Irae Simone for the Tahs. Weak defence from the Highlanders again.

Don't think it was that - they ran two guys (one of them Skelton) at a hole and Hegarty delayed the pass just enough to suck in another guy.

[Stargazer]

Reece Robinson again converts the try and it's 32 - 40 to the Highlanders after 60 minutes.

Brookvale turf breaking up

Buckman sitting in the stands. It's a pity he isn't playing tonight.

[Stargazer]

Naiyaravoro, unstoppable. Another try to the Tahs. 37 - 40 Landers

[NTA]

Jeez. A try to Taqele where he didn't bump anyone. Bit sloppy from the Clan and they couldn't catch him.

Tahs big Fijian winger looking a bit more Rupeni circa 2008 than Rupeni circa 2003. Needs a bit of cardio!

Highlanders looking a completely different team this half - Tahs are destroying them. I think it's because they are a completely different team.

Every. Fucking. Year.

Going for posts? Bullshit.

[Stargazer]

Reece Robinson's penalty kick makes it 40 all.

Yes, and that's a worry because it could indicate that their depth is marginal.

[NTA]

Crowd call for the forward pass. That was rubbish

[NTA]

That was surely forward from Robinson? Great move, but that must have gone forward.

[NTA]

Stream starting to break up a bit.

[Stargazer]

Great kick and chase from Robinson, resulting in a try from Con Foley. Robinson converts the try and it's 47 - 40 to the Tahs. 3 minutes to go.

[NTA]

Heading for a draw

[MajorPom]

Finally calls a forward pass ... on one that I didn't even think was forward!

Dunno if I'd worry about depth fella. It's a completely different team now.

Reece Robinson looks like a decent player for sure.
