[QUOTE="nik, post: 731799, member: 12284"] What a game! Well done Highlanders. I would have like to seen 'Canes win the ***le, mainly because of the rugby the played all season, Conrad/Nonu farewell, their fans at the stadium (looked like an awesome atmosphere) and the fact they have a lot of current ABs (justifies selection if they win?). However the Highlanders played very smart rugby. I wouldn't say the 'Canes played dumb, they played the way they normally do but Highlanders did well to disrupt and halt all their threatening attacks. Savea bombed a try (not a great night for the Savea's), however with the sideline conversion Barrett would have most likely missed anyway. Highlanders played championship winning rugby. The kind of rugby that can stop the All Blacks. It is smart, they know exactly what to do depending on where they are on the field. The foundation is built on solid defense. [/QUOTE]
