Magpies v Tasman

[Magpie_in_aus]

Ta$man to good. Great offloads.

[Stargazer]

@Yeetyaah Nothing officially announced

[Bovidae]

@Yeetyaah said in Hawke's Bay v Ta$man:

Does Lotima Fainga'anuku have a Super contract for next year yet? Anyone know?

Leicester won't get many opportunities either at the Crusaders behind Bridge, Reece and Jordan.

Yep signed a 3 year deal with the Crusaders last year

[Chris B.]

Big run by Nankivell, but some soft D.

[Chris B.]

@Chris That was Leicester, not Tima.

[Nepia]

They're beating us like a redhead stepson (or Finaly Christie) now.

@Steven-Harris said in Hawke's Bay v Ta$man:

Wether we have hated some of the decisions, some of the tackling has been awful..

Might be the hair dos of some of the visiting players. It looks like the way they have it could well poke tacklers in the eyes when they are making tackles. Where is our supply of Ardie Saves goggles when we need them?

[Steven Harris]

Tackling is something you can coach ,but at the end of the tackling comes from the heart..on saying that credit to Ta$man..they are showing they are a quality team and have showed the Magpies the upmost respect by naming their best team today when they could of rested guys...very impressive from the visitors

[Nepia]

Worst time for us to get Ta$man really, hopefully it doesn't do too much mental damage leading into the finals.

[Stargazer]

Well, we had a good first half. That's all.

Opps Yeah Thats who I thought was mentioned but it was Tima

[Yeetyaah]

@Chris Leicester signed for 3 years. Hopefully Lotima goes for another contract somewhere other than the Crusaders. Too many good outsides.

[Nepia]

@Yeetyaah said in Hawke's Bay v Ta$man:

Too many food outsides.

They're big boys but that's a bit rude.

[Yeetyaah]

@Nepia

[Bovidae]

@Chris-B Nankivell has really improved this year, starting with his time at the Chiefs.

[Chris B.]

@Yeetyaah Tima should find a contract somewhere. He's not got the same size as Leicester, but he's plenty good enough.

So to summerise

• We didn't show enough heart
• Full credit to Ta$man
• real game of two halfs
• some things to work on before next week
• back to the drawing board
  -thanks to the ladies in the kitchen

[Stargazer]

Good time to sub Dixon. It's a lost cause, so give him an early exit.

I thought the Landers or Chiefs would look at signing Tima but haven’t heard anything
No Crusaders don’t need any more outside backs they are looking at Mid Field back up options I believe
