[QUOTE="Darwin, post: 631360, member: 24910"] Not a bad half of rugby considering no tries were scored. There was plenty of action, but neither side were able to fully take their chances. Thorn's return has been a big boost for the Highlanders, both with ball in hand and on defense. Both Smith's have been good - it has been good to see Aaron Smith putting pressure on Perenara. I'm worried how poor our midfield defense has been - Burleigh has been a revolving door, Sopoaga is no better, and Fekitoa has been out of position a couple of times. I get the feeling it is only a matter of time the Canes will break through the midfield and score. For the Canes I think Julian Savea has been the standout. I hope they don't give him any ball in the 2nd half ;) [/QUOTE]
