Auckland v Wellington

[nzzp]

@Stargazer superb anticipation. Not sure that ball was out, but the lack of Wellington players probably swayed the ref

[African Monkey]

@Kirwan and its cost us. Dumb from Faiane there.

Was a few dumb decisions, play the corners and kill their set pieces

[Tim]

Need to kick behind the rush defence.

mate, do you think rugby is really as simple as playing to your strengths and playing for territory and possession? Crikey

[Bones]

@Stargazer wasn't impressed with him immediately turning it over by not looking to get closer to his support though.

Weird (possible) try for Welly.

Auckland showing superb patience, going through probably almost a couple dozen phases all up, then one little moment of impatience falls for Aso...

[Kirwan]

Some great takes from Plummer and Trainor so far

[Bones]

Welly defence looking much more promising this week.

[Bones]

Holy shit, Trainor!

Those chip kicks are working well.

[African Monkey]

The chip is working for Wellington so far.

[KiwiMurph]

This reminds me of last year's game where Wellington smashed Auckland.

So painful watching Ruru.

[Kirwan]

Wow, that was terrible defence

[Stargazer]

That looked really easy. Great try.

[African Monkey]

Trainor's been found wanting positional so far.

Big time

[Tim]

Where the hell was the wing?

That's an understatement.

[nzzp]

Shuold be a really lon gday for Welly with a scrum going backwards like that.

Good space identification though, soft from Auckland. No contest was weird

Yeah what the fuck! Basically just said go for the cross kick, we don't think you can do it.

[Kirwan]

Plummer owes Clarke a beer
