v North Harbour
-
@tim if I had to rate the teams in order..
Premiership
1.Canterbury
2. Ta$man
3.North Harbour
4.Wellington
5.Auckland
6.Taranaki
7.CountiesMy floater here is Harbour,they are North Islands version to Ta$man,loaded with super rugby players,around 18 I believe in their squad,and the only disruption is big Karl T who will be with the ABs
Championship
1.Otago
2.Manawatu
3.Waikato
4.Bay of Plenty
5.Northland
6.Hawkes Bay
7.SouthlandThat’s the head speaking.
I did pick Northland ahead of the Magpies only because Northland does not play Canterbury, Ta$man or Wellington,sorry stargazer..!
My floater is Manawatu,their squad has great depth,and with Milner Skudder,Laumape and Hemapo floating outside the AB squad,that’s some serious firepower to bring back in,not to mention 2 quality goalkicking pivots Black and TeRure..In summary,just when you think your own team has a decent squad,you look at the others squads and go WTF..!
@steven-harris Taranaki does have some big losses: TTT, Mitchell Graham, Ngatai, M Mac, and of course the coach. Really interesting to see how they go this year.

@steven-harris I'm listening on the radio...

Good line speed earns Harbour a pen at breakdown
-
Not a good start by the sounds...lucky Garland is kicking poorly.
-
Brilliant Northland Try and con
-
Its been scrappy rugby apart from that Northland try. Still, its great to have this comp back.
7-3 Northland lead 16.45 gone
-
Hope gatland keeps this up.
-
Last couple of scrums Harbour have had the edge
-
Our scrum struggling by the sounds...not good.
-
Too much field position as well,get to halftime

@steven-harris doesn't sound very good...not enough possession or territory, likely to bite us in 2nd 40
