Southland vs Northland

[Gunner]

I wouldn’t mind seeing our backs send it wide, just once....

We keep fucking around in midfield going nowhere.

Hyland, a well deserved try.

[ACT Crusader]

Got what you wanted @Gunner

It was a good run after a very messy lineout for the Stags.

[Duluth]

Haha, terrible positioning from the ref.. Matich makes sure he knows

[ACT Crusader]

The first up tackling from the Stags is pretty passive. A decent breakdown penalty won though.

Now Stags cough up the ball with their 1st 5 standing way too far away from that ruck.

Taniwha in a good attacking position with scrum just outside the 10m line in the middle of the park.

[Stargazer]

Wow.

[Machpants]

Watching Scott Gregory, he's probably got the highest number of ruck (and maul!) attendance stats for a full back in first class rugby

[Gunner]

Fuck me our passing has been atrocious tonight.

[Gunner]

Terrible option from Gregory with that pathetic chip kick to no one, gives Southland the ball hot on attack.

I think only Northland could be in a position to potentially lose a game when we should be up by 30

That was Jack D

@Machpants I think my feed is on a bit of a delay...
Was definitely Gregory who I was talking about

Yeah I'm via Hong Kong so I was looking at the kick straight to the guy in the 22 to mark

[Gunner]

The fucking basic skills seriously lacking tonight from Northland.

We are determined to keep Southland in it.

[Machpants]

@Gunner can't believe the ref didn't stop it when the ruck went over an injured player, that's appalling

[Stargazer]

Brave from Southland there at the end, they deserved that bonus point. Unlucky. Great defence from Northland though, who deserved their win.

[nzzp]

Well done Northland.

Enjoyed that game - and well done Southland. Gutsy as anything, no right to be in that game

[shack]

I can’t recall Johnson or Leilua touching the ball all game

[Machpants]

Pretty tense, messy tho. Can't believe the wasn't a yellow

And WTF with the mascot? That's embarrassingly awful behaviour

[Stargazer]

Ray Nu'u was really good for Southland; Te Tamaki also played well.

[Dice]

Southland should've just taken the easy 3 to get the bonus point at the end. They wanted to get the bonus point the hard way and came away with nothing. Silly.

[African Monkey]

@Gunner Yeah not easy tbf on a cold night but they still did some good things out there too. Think they'll be better for the run.
