    Yep, there are high schools with better facilities than what's on offer today! Where the heck are they anyway? Whakatane?? Opotiki??

          We are certainly off our game today. Normally a lineout five metres short of the line would almost be a certain try but without Ash Dixon it went nowhere and eventaully the ball was turned over in front of the posts and hooferd down to half way. This is not going well!

            I'm going to start ragging on the sub standard facilities to cover my anger at the start.

            How can an NPC ground have players walk down from the grandstand and the coaches box is a trestle table? 🙂

            There are probably extension cords running from those laptops to a generator out the back. I hope it doesn't rain.

              @Higgins noticing the fact Walker-Leawere isn't there either. He provides so much grunt in the tight five.

                  I'd love to see Chase Tiatia at 10. Maybe the Canes should move him there in Super.

                    I don't think having the wind at our backs will sort out our poor defence and pedestrian attack.

                      Does anyone know why Ash Dixon isn't starting?

                          @Nepia Did you notice that excellent impersonation of a statue by Ben May as he lets Chace Tiatia waltz past him for yet another try? TAB odds out to a now juicy $18.00 head to head for what it is worth.

                                I also notice him take a guy way off the ball when we nearly scored in close. Dude is probably a grandpa but seems to get dumber as the seasons go on.
