Tasman v Canterbury

@African-Monkey said in Ta$man v Canterbury:
The much maligned Brett Cameron has been very good.
That’s All Black Brett Cameron sir. Thanks Foxy.
@ACT-Crusader I feel a bit for the guy tbh. He should never have been given that test but it has put a massive target on his back as a result and he does cop a lot of unnecessary blame when things don't go well for his side.

@Chris-B has run on to the pitch trying to steal this win

Wrong side of the hill for me!

How many times is Mitch Hunt going to miss touch tonight?
That and a stuttering lineout have killed us!

@Chris-B it's an inside job

It's fucking Romano - not remembering where he comes from!

A master class in terms of doing the basics well ..that was as comprehensive as it gets ..

I find it convenient that Ta$man are having a “bad game” playing big brother facing relegation.

Yep, very convenient at home from the Ta$man Invitational XV indeed.
Bugger.

@Donsteppa there’s no love lost between these 2 unions, hell will freeze over before one of them lets each other win.

I’m about as surprised by tonight’s result as I was two weeks ago at Tauranga Domain!

Actually, that wasn't our worst performance this season by a long stretch.
Game really swung on the missed touch by Hunt that McKay scored off and then the intercept just after halftime. Until that a comeback was manageable and we probably had enough ball and field position to have been able to do it.
Points didn't come.
The lineout was a disaster and Canterbury had their best performance since Week 1.
I miss our 2019 team, though!

@Donsteppa some very random things happening ..where do you guys play Waikato ..?

Fonotia was so good that he got subbed as a sub.
Injuries have been a big problem in this round.
@Bovidae Yeah - meant to mention that. Sione Havili wasn't right after the first minute and losing Nankivell early as well disrupted things.
Canterbury turned up to play though, so credit to them - and Romano particularly.
McKay was excellent as well.
Cameron had the best game I can recall from him - not flawless, but he was better than Hunt.
David Havili was probably our best. Talea was decent after (I think) missing the tackle that let in the first try. Far too many kicking errors from Hunt.
Finlay Christie tried hard - there's a line from your third form report!
The lineout was so shit that I find it hard to say much positive about the forwards. The scrum was OK until Makalio left - but, I think he turned over possession several times in open play. Sione Havili on one leg might still have been our best forward.
And another edit: Fonotia was poor. Very poor.
