Horan is at least in a position to recognise a bad back line.. too deep, too deep.

The Highlanders ruck work is shocking, they used to the be the best breakdown team in the comp, probably the worst atm.

Real cripple fight.
I thought the Force were bad, but the Highlanders really are average.

I honestly tune in every week and am genuinely surprised how bad we are each and every week. Like you said we were so good at the breakdown the last two years, our back line used to play on the advantage line. This year, the skill level, the structures, the general rugby playing ability has just evaporated. We are missing Manu, Thomson, Crosswell (who hasn't played at all this year for the Chiefs) hell, even Haskell from last years back row.

Fuk's sake, forget all that above.. we've been shat on by every single ref this year. Almost all the 50-50's and bounces of the ball have gone against us. Not spouting vitriol either, I've mentioned it every week.

..see bounce of the ball again

We've had about 7-8 decisions go to the TMO this year, think we've managed to get 1 of 'em. Unlucky not to score (touched the post but not the ground), lucky to get the ball back seen as Nonu technically lost control.

Any typically, we stuff it up again. That no. 8 gets isolated so bloody often.

Gear knocks on again.. he touches the ball about 2 times a game and manages to knock it on 3 times.

Shocking crowd. The ARU and force board better pull their heads out of their arse soon if they want to arrest the slide.

Highlanders should stop with the fucking quick taps for their benefit. They almost always make a mistake in the following ruck

Not only did Dellit touch it before it bounced but he touched it before he went out as well.
