Southland v Canterbury (RS)

[cgrant]

How old is Ben Funnell ? I guess Letiu must be injured.

[Fredsaua12]

Letiu is starting for Canterbury B in the curtain raiser game so he is definitely not injured.

Squally hails showers, cold wind here in Invercargill this morning ...... I feel the stars aligning

[SouthernMann]

MetService has the temp at 3.9c, feeling like -1. Hopefully it stays that way

[Yeetyaah]

Get up Stags

[frugby]

Disaster of a start for Southland

[KiwiMurph]

Southland are no chance if they can't sort out their set piece

[frugby]

I suspect the conclusion after this game, is probably going to be genuine confusion as to how Taranaki ever managed to lose the shield to Waikato.

[KiwiMurph]

Credit to Canterbury

They are better than every other team in the comp by so much it isn't funny

[SouthernMann]

There are two different sets of contenders this year. Canterbury. The rest.

Looks like we are all competing to lose to Canterbury in the final

I guess not having many ABs helps with that.

[KiwiMurph]

What's the problem

Guy was in ruck and he cleaned him out

Fucking Doleman

[frugby]

Southland are way too emotional here.

[frugby]

@KiwiMurph Have to agree. Countless unnecessary calls. Just not reading the room, and dare I say it, making it all about himself.

They are just clearly the best team in the comp. An absolutely stacked team at this level.

I reckon the Naki will give them a go.

[frugby]

@Canes4life Ta$man and Taranaki both capable with all their players available, and if Canterbury have an off day, but it doesn't look likely. Nobody has got near them so far.

Strangely given the year Auckland is having, they got close. Were unlucky to lose

[SouthernMann]

Guys like McLeod, Punivai, Fihaki, Ennor and most of the forward pack are just class at this level. No one has players at the same level as Canterbury available week to week.

Yeah that’s what I’m saying, they’ve got a strong team because they’ve benefited from not having many in the ABs etc…. for once.
