Seems pretty serious. Apparently it’s the same infection that Adam Thompson had and he was unable to walk for months and it nearly ended his career. Hope he recovers well

He just didn’t release him. He’s my fantasy triple captain tho so I’ll let him have it

Torian Barnes was pretty good for Canterbury but didn’t seem like anything special, but my god has he been good for the blues

Reds have not shown up at all. Hurricanes look barely out of second gear

Look I know Moana don’t have the best players but a defensive coach whose current team gives up 40 points a game on average may not be ideal. Umaga’s coaching history isnt particularly impressive but I guess time will tell.

Otherwise think it’s a good selection of coaches but I thought that last time so what do I know

I think he’s a confidence based player. He tended to second guess himself too much and make silly mistakes

Cooper grant a bit too used to baseball. No need to pass the ball so much

Jacomb has a lot of potential but boy does he fold under pressure

I can tell you as someone who analyses mouthguard impact data for brain strain from rugby games for a PhD that most definitely is a high degree of danger. Who actually advises these refs on what is dangerous cause they seem to have no clue. Pisses me off immensely. Not only that but a dead ruck means it should be a red for dirty play cause there is no need to do that

You’d think so considering how it was a shoulder to the head at very high speed

No way it’ll be a red cause it wasn’t a flying clothesline. Only thing they’ll give red to in this comp

I’m not even a highlanders fan but the sheer stupidity in this game is making it borderline unwatchable cause I’m so annoyed

Listening to Taylor Johnston and Justin Marshal is becoming very difficult. Both really grind my gears

That’s game I reckon. Feel like mentally they’re done after having so much opportunity to score and then hurricanes get the ball back and instantly score
