Northland v Waikato
-
@J77 agree with all of that. Some odd substitutions going on too. What’s with taking Reihana off at 50 mins? The backline looks laboured when Hawkins comes on. And then not subbing Ranger earlier and taking Tua off. Can’t work it out….

@kev Tua may have an injury,will get a report this week
@Steven-Harris he looked pretty pissed coming off, so either for an injury or being subbed for a 9...?
If he is, I'd like to see them run Goodhue at 12 and Murray at 13.

You know they’ll bring old mate Blake back in…

@J77 oh yeah...

@taniwharugby so did Northland, point stands, awful ref.

@Yeetyaah I tend to agree, missed a lot. I tend to agree, both teams benefited from this at various times. His AR's were no help at all, in fact only made calls against the visiting side...
@OleOleOle well if they had looked at the Waikato try, they'd have seen he took it in front of the mark (not by much) but looked in front form where I was sitting...
Agree, they missed alot (multiple forward passes, side entries at rucks, not straight lineouts, all both ways)

@taniwharugby I agree, can't believe he let them get away with that tap. Not sure the try that was ruled out by the TMO came from a pass that went forward out of the hand so swings and roundabouts, maybe...

considering he was the player who caused the penalty and didnt move forward i would say he was on the mark

We were right in line with that at the game. More obvious live than on replay because of camera angles. Definitely forward out of hand.
That said on balance Waikato should have put Northland away a lot earlier given set piece dominance so in the end result a fair reflection of game.
