    You can see why Mils said that Papali'i would be a "foundation" player for the Blues.

    What's Plummers' season goalkicking percentage I wonder? All I ever seem to see is him missing.

    However, Waikato are dross. I think Lincoln Uni would give them a dust up. Not one player close to being a regular SR starter in this line up.

    That's probably because they have very few SR players in the squad. Prop Toby Smith is probably the one with most SR caps.

    We've coughed up so many games to those fellas I'm stoked to get the win. Brightest start to the season for a bloody decade I reckon.

    Importantly, they look well coached! Ted still has it in him 🙂

    I hate Ruru being out there. Just slow, inaccurate and indecisive.

    Look very organised, for sure. Be interesting how we go against the better sides.

    Auckland hasn't really been tested yet. It will be interesting to see how they go against Ta$man next week.

    Last year we were losing to teams like this.

    Umm yeah. I didn't think they were holding back all their SR players.....

    Bwahahaha.

    We've got as many wins after three weeks that we got all last season. We probably won't win the comp, but by fark we're playing competitive heads up footy at times.

    I'll take it. Also, I'm yelling at the TV again - a good sign. Have been far too 'meh' for too many years. Will definitely get down to the next game to support them.

    Waikato score from a maul from an obvious not straight throw.

    @stargazer No we haven't but compared to last year we probably would have lost all 3.

    @nzzp Definitely, much improved from last year. Don't read more in my comment than what it says. All I meant that is that it will be interesting to see where they sit in the comp and that will be better noticeable when Auckland plays a stronger team. I reckon they'll finish quite high, somewhere in the top 3.

    Semis are the target for this season. A very young side and building nicely. Some future prospects for the Blues too.

    Caleb Clarke might need some tackling practice before our next game, he made some awful attempts out there.

    Some late points against the subs flatter Waikato hugely, they are truely awful.

    Again, good signs from Auckland. And also again, we need to tidy up the lineout. Scrum looked good though
