    Frustration for the Highlanders following a 31-14 Super Rugby loss to the Reds in Brisbane

    Frustration for the Highlanders following a 31-14 Super Rugby loss to the Reds in Brisbane


    The Southerners trailed 19-7 at the break, before closing the gap to five points with a converted Lucas Casey try.

    A lapse then allowed the Reds to score two unanswered tries, while the Highlanders had a try disallowed and knocked on over the line to stunt a comeback.

    Highlanders coach Jamie Joseph says their poor start and set piece hurt them.



    Moana Pasifika have been outplayed 35-19 in their match with the Force in Pukekohe.
