The ref is not up to it. Firstly a penalty for a player offside in the way of the half back. Then yellow card for a shoulder charge that was not. Useless. Not up to it.

Auckland handed the lead by a ref who is clearly not up it. Two disgraceful decisions in a row.

It's going both ways.

@KiwiMurph yea he is sadly out of his depth. Missed alot for Auckland early on then let us away with a bit later.

Those last two decisions were truely awful. Halfback passes and hits an Auckland player on his side getting up. A penalty to us all day of the week and he gives it the other way for offiside. Then shoulder charge? WTF leads directly to a try and we are down a player.

Breeze has swung round and likely favour Auckland

[KiwiMurph]

Vikena is going to need to sort his lineout throwing out if he wants to progress.

[KiwiMurph]

Excellent try Northland

[taniwharugby]

Kudos to Blake for getting his hands through there

[KiwiMurph]

Northland 13-12

There's got to be a penalty try and yellow

3 times that should’ve happened

[KiwiMurph]

Funaki has played well but needs to look at the ball not his backline

[Machpants]

LOL still no yellow there was about 15 penalties in the play leading to this scrum (54:03 jest short arm this time), heaps of attacks on the head, offside, playing 9, not rolling etc etc

[Machpants]

they should just let a try over! Did the ozzie eight drop that?

[Duluth]

Yes Pugh is shit but that’s another clear PT

[KiwiMurph]

Pugh is abysmal at the back of the scrum

[Tim]

How has there not been a yellow card from 100x penalties on the try line?

Yeah NLD hands on the ball from two players, one clearly on his knees offside, the other the nine - I think

[number9]

How many fucking penalty tries should have been given? The Northland scrum has been totally dominated.
