CM need to find a good performance for this one. Effectively they are battling Welly for a place in the semis.
Cant, Ta$man and Auckland look to have 3 spots sewn up.
Considering the freshness of our 9 and 10 this year I should be happy if we just stay up but a top 4 spot would be awesome. -
Terrible TMO decision with player miles offside before scoring.
Aumua hits back straight away, though.
@stargazer yep, what a shocker of call. Did the tmo think the centre had put him on side?

@stargazer That call was just straight incompetence.

Counties joining Taranaki in the relegation dogfight. Not an easy run in with Ta$man, Canterbury, Harbour and Northland to play - but, a bit easier than Taranaki's run home!
Harbour has a bit more breathing space in that they've not dropped any crossover matches and have four very winnable matches in their final five. They'll be pretty keen to turn that potential breathing space into tangible points vs BoP tomorrow.

Certainly looks like we don’t deserve to be in the same room as the big guys on that result.
Oh well, relegation fight it is then. -
Just seen the highlights, what on earth was the TMO playing at? Who was it?
I'll keep an eye on his astonishing rise to reffing a WC quarter next year.

Agree. Both Counties tries. And not even marginal
