Has DMac got a flight to SA lined up after this. Sharp passes to hole runners, great tactical kicks, goals.
Who needs that?@Chris said in Waikato v Hawke's Bay:
D Mac has had 3 chances to win this game .
But Jordie could take the kicks

absolutely @Stargazer , you want champions to step up in clutch plays not fuck them up. His general play was pretty good, but I would not want him kicking goals for anyone..

Chase Tiatia can fuck off back to Of Plenty.
Such a welcoming bunch in Magpies territory
We were very welcoming to Visinia. Not your BoP plant though - one game in and @Stockcar86 has rightly noted he's already giving Baker vibes.
Tiatia is arguably a poor man's DMac, but at this level the diamonds usually outdo the rocks across an NPC season.
Agreed, but this was a rocks game for him, I want him to play how he did for you lot against us two years ago when he almost singlehandedly won the game - all the time.

Brought back memories of Mehrts in 1995.
Don’t go there I still haven’t forgiven Mehrts for that.

I don't know why draws are considered a bad thing. Neither penalty attempt from DMac was that easy, certainly not as easy as the missed HB conversion.
Some dodgy ref/AR decisions from my view, missing obvious forward passes and knock ons. I'll watch the replay to see how it looked closer up.

disagree, the second penalty was a great spot for a right footed kicker and it wasn't on the sideline..and the drop kick might as never have happened, even if it was off the left, it was right in front. For a player that supposed calibre it was below par execution

Rushed off the wrong foot as the pass wasn’t on target.
You’re a harsh crowd. -

What was with all the uncalled forward passes in this one? Great game otherwise. Thought Grigg and Tiatia added a lot for HB.
Grigg was ok, but he doesn’t have Ili’s finesse. Was there another Tiatia playing?

The long pass from near the touchline by Tiatia late in the 1st half was definitely passed forward. I had a view directly in line with the pass from the upper stand.

On paper this is match of the round.
You weren't wrong.
What a game, outstanding.
