Northland v Waikato

[Yeetyaah]

Good line from Hohaia

Had Macalai being busting tackles at the rate of about one per 2 minutes for the entire game?

@yeetyaah just wondering if a couple of intense games over the last couple of weeks has taken a toll on the Mooloo boys ..they look flat as..!

One back there when one of our boys grabbed the 9 like you normally aren't allowed

"Let me referee it." If only you actually could.

One side is really getting the rub of the green, but they also deserve to be in front.

[Yeetyaah]

@steven-harris for sure, they're slow to the rucks and Lansdown is being targeted for his shit catching. Northland always seems to have Waikato's number.

[Machpants]

I think that was a great tackle the on Macalai

[taniwharugby]

@antipodean we don't get it often, so I'll take it

[Steven Harris]

@yeetyaah bloody weird how that happens

[Yeetyaah]

How the fuck are Waikato this bad at ruck time? Ffs

3rd game in a row where they only have ~30% possession. That’s asking a lot of the defence

[Yeetyaah]

Oh shit they can use the TMO

[Yeetyaah]

Obstruction

[Machpants]

Jeez defence optional game

[taniwharugby]

Lost 2 lineouts in a row...

[Steven Harris]

Here’s the comeback unfortunately, Northland will need to go to their bench and there ain’t much there ..

[taniwharugby]

Why take Macilai off?? Has to be injured?

[Yeetyaah]

LCF is a blood good runner, his defence is his main letdown.

[taniwharugby]

@steven-harris been about 40 mins of decent footy by us...likely still be at 80
