Auckland v Northland
-
Is Ranger supporting his own bodyweight there ref?
-
god we make some rookie errors over and over
-
Just a nightmare half for us. We can barely put two phases together. Even one phase seems like a struggle.
@Dice luckily we can barely string a phase together either
-
JOne gets the speed wobbles
-
How dumb are some of these Auckland players? Some baffling individual decisions, almost like they're new to the game.
-
why are we keeping it so close
-
need to take it a metre or 2 wider than these rucks
-
Northland work out what an overlap is and score.
-
made hard work of that!!
-
This is one of the most bizarre games I've watched. Northland is making tough work of it though.

thats how we roll!

At the ground. That might be the worst half of rugby I’ve seen. Most of the crowd has no idea what is happening with the subs/hooker
Northlands to lose from here. A man up and no scrum pressure
Surprised Auckland doesn’t have a sub practising lineout throws. 10mins of practise then sub on would be better than what’s happening
-
I guess Golden Oldies and 1 man down changes alot of the game structure and Northland struggling to take advantage...as always far too many errors putting pressure on ourselves

Plan A is to not pass the ball to Tuiloma.

@Duluth I am sitting in the press box and I totally agree with you ..
It’s like the Auckland guys have met in the car park before the game ..injuries aside , and Northland for all their endeavour look like they are playing their first preseason game..
Possibly the worst 40 minutes I have have seen In a very long time ..I would imagine the Auckland coaches would have torn their team a new one at the halftime break ..still think Auckland will come back..hoping for a better 2nd half .. -
With both our hookers getting injured, I think we had a choice between having 15 men on the field and having contested scrums, or having non-contested scrums and taking one man off for the rest of the game. Not sure if that's true, but it's all weird anyway.
