10min remaining in the first half. Highlanders mauling the ball 10m before receiving a penalty advantage.

Highlanders go off their feet at the ruck and Foley gets an opportunity to take 3 points from a very kickable position.

Foley makes an excellent break through the midfield off the second phase and runs 50m before being tackled short of the tryline. The Tahs recycle the ball and look certain to score but the ball doesnt go through the hands and the Highlander force a turnover and clear the ball. Big opportunity lost.

Sopoaga runs out of options after the Waratahs speed on defense took them backward, he puts a kick in for the corner but it goes out on the full.

Highlanders back to 15 men as Smith returns from the sin bin. Highlanders have a midfield scrum on halfway. Plenty of options on either side of the scrum.

Ultimate Rugby Jul 7

Waratahs penalised almost immediately after the previous penalty after they fail to roll away at the ruck. This should be an easy 3 points for Sopoaga

Ultimate Rugby Jul 7

Waratahs backline go offside during the scrum and the Highlanders line up a 52m kick on a angle against a breeze, this will be a brilliant kick should he get it.

Ultimate Rugby Jul 7

Highlanders kicking possession away, just what the Waratahs would want. Beale collects the ball and makes a break but eventually a pass goes forward and a Highlanders have a scrum near their own 10m line.

Ultimate Rugby Jul 7

Highlanders win a penalty inside their own 22m after the Waratahs hold onto the ball. Lineout near halfway.

Ultimate Rugby Jul 7

Waratahs spread the ball wide from the scrum put a great grubber through that puts pressure on the Highlanders to clear. Tahs gather the ball and are on the counter attack looking dangerous.
