@stargazer Loving the contest. The Naki-Harbour games was a non-event where defence was optional.
-
Lovely breakout try to Welly, bad mistake by Ta$man - made to pay for leaving the ball unprotected at the back of the ruck
-
For me Makalio offers more than either Asafo Aumua or Coltman, both in general play and scrummaging
-
@shadowtrooper Yes, agree 100%. Should be on the EYOT, but as we all know, the ABs selectors always find it very hard to drop players, even if they are very average.
-
So far, so good from Ta$man - playing into the wind.
Most things going well and mainly playing with some patience, which has been a problem in previous weeks - too many miracle balls.
Only thing that really annoyed me was the obstruction penalty on Blackadder when we had formed for the lineout drive. Really? Is someone going to be penalised every time the lifter is upstream from the jumper? Great scoring chance and Ta$man gets pinged for something that happens all the time and is almost never called.

@stargazer Yes Chiefs connections; Aumua L, and Alaimalo working pretty well together
-
I'm hoping the Chiefs can attract Levi Aumua back next season, but this time give him some decent game time
-
Like that fulla Mangos as well - no matter how you say his nmea
-
Tragedy! Loan player from Auckland scores for he Mako$!
-
Good effort by Ta$man.
Dominant in most parts of the game, but a couple of errors got punished with points and Mitch Hunt had a bit of a dog kicking at goal.
Left the door open for Wellington, but the last couple of minutes replicated Otago last night and shut them out.
Hope Jordan's ankle is something that only needs a few days to come right.

Really enjoyable game after the 2 blow outs today,Crockett,Lorax and Makaleo outstanding,scrum dominance plYed a huge part in the 2nd half, my MOM was Makaleo..what’s happened to Asafo Amua..?was supposed to be next big thing..!..congratulations to Ta$man..,Wellington nowhere near their best but you always felt they were never gonna go away
