Landers penalty, easy shot at goal… very easy
Good defense by the Force
Highlanders 6 / 3 Force

OK, time to go look for something to skoff…
The wife and kids are all gone for the day, so I have to look after myself today.
2nd Half ON!
Lima Sopoaga misses a penalty to the left, 22 drop in by the Force
Ebersohn just also kicks, kicks, kicks… and that’s about his forté
Try Landers, John Hardy!
Highlanders 13 / 3 Force
There goes your pick on Bru, Nortels… hahaha
Landers now aiming to play deep in the Force half… and succeeding so far

Yep….one of those “I know I shouldn’t do it, but what the hell”
My original pick was Landers by 11
Ebersohn kicking upfield, middle of the field, handing good possession over again.
Landers also get a penalty, inside their own half
45 @ nortie:
My Bru pick is Landers by 8, I think.
I think I am way too conservative though.
Looks like putting on a blue jersey automatically makes the team kick with no plan at all 😆
47 @ grootblousmile:
They will probably win by 17 plus
Good touchfinder by the replacement Force scrummie.
Landers lineout, about 8m from their own line.
Landers clear, but only to their 22
McCalman knocks… yeah, this looks a lot like an SA side in Blue…
20 Minutes to go in this snore-fest!
I have to think so long… need to go and buy my wife a birthday card for tomorrow… in between this game and the next one at 17:05.
Might just as well get a take-away to eat, get milk and sweets, while I’m at it.
Landers 5m scrum… think they will score from here… could be a snipe by Aaron Smith…
Was an Aaron Smith snipe, he gets very close
Try Landers?
Ash Dixon?
No, it’s Elliott Dixon… but it’s inconclusive
Landers penalty, against the Farce loosehead, 5m out, popped into touch for the lineout
Booted through to touch by Ben McCalman of the Force… back to a lineout on the 22 for the Landers
