    When George runs straight at 12 he really commits the defence. So if he could offload Fekitoa's pace Woolf be pretty devastating.

      I was intrigued as to why a regular on a rugby forum would have auto-correct defaulting to "Woolf"... and did an AskJeeves to figure out if there's something I'm missing.

          Interesting to see that Josh Kaifa is now listed on the squad page. I wonder if he is injury cover for Seu?

          Salesi Rayasi is a big boy for a wing:

              Fair yellow card. Dangerous tackle.

                Good to see us at least matching them physically, something we didn't see last year.

                  @African-Monkey some good hustle by Auckland forwards. Akira throwing himself into rucks.

                    A yellow for that? Maybe the strange thing is I'm still surprised.

                      Quick post before retiring (under pressure from other half). Fat fingers and auto check converted would to Woolf? Will take a peek at woolf-bike!

                          They really have to change that rule. Absolutely nothing the defence could do to stop that try.

                            Trainor and Aso with two dumb decisions putting Auckland under pressure. Good thing Akira's there to carry the team.

                              You can see why Moala is no longer an all black - woeful handling skills.

                                Our kicking has been very average.

                                        @African-Monkey Yep. He really should be the Auckland midfielder benched for Faiane.

                                          @KiwiMurph Yeah we lack a bit of balance with Moala and Fekitoa both there. Wouldn't be suprised if he moves out to the wing in the 2nd half.
