Taranaki vs Northland
-
@taniwharugby because Magpies
-
This is crisis time for this team. They have to work out how to get across the advantage line with rushing defences without losing or giving away ball, so that that they can clean out and go again.
So while we might lack some class, to me this is all about our Coaches.
-
@taniwharugby yes that’s my point...
-
@taniwharugby said in v Taranaki:
@Gunner Nock has a very good pass but he is too hesitant.
Coach him. He is a talented player. We don’t have many.
-
@taniwharugby agree. This team is disorganised. They look slower in everything they do - players getting off the ground and getting back into the game is so important.
-
Gregory is very much like Ranger in his younger days, rocks and diamonds...and often when chasing a game, trying too much and making the simplest of errors.
They also need to put Gregory somewhere, and leave him there.
Gonna be a long week for the boys...be big ask to get back up from pretty much a hundred points being put past them in 2 weeks.
Assuming fitness of a few, my starting lineup would be:
Te Whata-Colley, OLsen, Isi
Caird, Goodhue
McNamara, Matiiu, Matich
Levien, J-Deb
Gregory, Hyland
Leilua, Rae, TuaPJA, Wright, Straker (although he is a starting prop, not an impact one) Sweetman, Nock, Faiane, Roberts- Te Nana
Bench Nock to make him work for his spot.
-
@taniwharugby so much work to do whatever team starts.
