Tasman Mako team to take on Canterbury! 🦈🦈 Join us this Friday 17th August, 7:35 PM at Landsdowne Park! #FinzUp #OurTeam Wyatt Crockett Andrew Makalio Tyrel Lomax Quinten Strange’ Pari Pari...

Ta$man team named. Video is somewhat worth watching - there's a couple of amusing bits..

Notable features are Grooby (who?) at halfback ahead of Christie and Guyton (both presumably injured).

Jamie Spowart and Alaimalo on the wings - and Will Jordan at fullback!!!!

No sign of Alex Ainley - Pari Pari Parkinson at lock.

Starting XV looks quite good. Bench looks frail.

Warm-up game for us. Canterbury by 20+ without even seeing their team.

@chchfanatic Forwards look strong - backs look a bit frail!

[Nepia]

This looks like it will be a cracking match, best of the round easy - I don't know who to boo the loudest for.

[Machpants]

@nepia Yeah looks like a close one, and an early pre final probably

The Naki look strong too.

[Bovidae]

I might have to watch this game to see Aumua play for the first time.

[cgrant]

Great to see Will Jordan back on the field.

Wrong thread.

No Enari yet for Canterbury and I'm surprised not to see Punivai on the wing and Ennor at centre.

A couple of Cantab debutantes in the starting midfield, it’s only Ta$man.

I'm looking forward to rip-snorter of a game. I hope we get that. And I hope we come out on the right side of it. Should monster them up front but their outside backs will be highly dangerous.

[Chris B.]

@shark If fucking Hansen would have selected Akira Ioane, we would at least have had one of our four international loose forwards available (Frizell). If he'd picked Toomaga-Allen rather than Perry, we'd have Tim as well.

As it is, I think our starting eight matches up pretty well to yours - but, your bench forwards look quite a bit stronger.

[KiwiMurph]

@chris-b just as well Auckland loaned you Sione Havili then.

[Donsteppa]

Burleigh at 12, I reckon @Baron-Silas-Greenback will tune in for this one

Agent Leon has his work well underway!

[KiwiMurph]

Sanders gives away some dumb penalties. 2 already.

The jersey clash is a bit shit.

[Machpants]

Champs are lookin like chumps, that pass from 9 to 10 - who was chatting away and paying no attention to the game...
