[QUOTE="Larksea, post: 731050, member: 43875"] great game, while I always thought the Highlanders are the better side playing in Sydney is a massive advantage for the Tahs. It's basically the hardest place to win away in super rugby. I felt like the tah's were overconfident and expected to dominate the landers up front. But the Highlanders wouldn't have it, their gameplan was far too smart and executed well by Ben, Aaron and Lima. The Potgieter incident. While its a shame a big game has an incident like this it was all on Potgieter. It's the players responsibility not to make contact with the head. And lets be honest it looked like Potgieter was going for the head with what was clearly a swinging arm from a few meters out. A swinging arm to the head is a yellow card, a swinging arm to the head that prevents a try is a yellow card and a penalty try. It's that simple. Sapoanga's goal kicking is a bit up and down? At times he hits it really well but overall he's only kicking 70-71%... which is ok but nothing more. [/QUOTE]
