Auckland v Northland

@SouthernMann I've always believed confidence plays its part, particularly in a younger side.
It is odd. These are in theory some of the most talented young players in the country. Is there a lack of experience around them. What is the impact of being in a poor performing twam as well? Some of the recruitment decisions are a bit odd too. Guys like Arscott, Hartford, Cribb, Allen just don't make a lot of sense.

Well, as a Northland fan, a 26-5 lead over Auckland ain't enough...Auckland still have some weapons in the backs, so we need to keep attacking and score.first.

Costly YC, still 3 mins and 2 tries...Auckland def using the man advantage with some width

Awesome to see Tangitau back and carving up

Here we go....

Just gotta give it to him in space.

It's some of Auckland's SR players that aren't leading from the front.
I don't know how Ta'avao is still a professional player.

Nice hospital pass from Rico Simpson too. Amazing how they make a decision to exacerbate the pressure.
-
Right decision that time

I can breath now
-
Surely Bates' tenure is now untenable?

Funaki and Lam were poor in the 1st half too.

Congrats Taniwha.
Wish we could dig up the old thread from that 2008 match.
I believe only the 6th win at Eden Park for Northland / Nth Auckland in 90 years.

Congrats Northland fans
Some good attacking play by both teams.
I think the bloom is off the rose for Taele - he even looks too small for midfield at this level - does some nice things but not nearly enough.
A winless season for Auckland I think is more likely than not at this stage.
Enjoy watching Tito Harris and Tangitau in space is electric

This is the best one - look how much talent was in that Auckland side and Northland has Rupeni

AUCKLAND vs NORTHLAND at Eden Park in 2001. Another great game, Northland had the Fijian flyer Rupeni Caucaunibuca on one wing showing his electrifying pace. With time up on the clock Northland...
