Taranaki v Auckland

[george33]

@Duluth as I said Patrick in cast broken arm take it or leave it

[george33]

Akira out for 6 weeks I actually no Patrick good mate tells me alot

[Duluth]

@george33 ok, so season ending for both of them

[george33]

Yes

[Dan54]

Naki got a few late changes, Parete , Franklin and Perofeta are all out, replaced by Loft, Bedwell-Curtis and Potroz.

[Nogusta]

@Duluth yea correct. As @george33 said Patty T reinjured his arm, came back too soon, and Akira torn ankle ligaments.

[Dan54]

Well I decided I getting old fellas. Raining and and turned cool, and have decided to give game a miss tonight, and watch it on TV. It's not being at game (I have watched plenty in shit weather) but the drive home in the rain and dark isn't appealing at all. An hour and a bit (each way)on the road is getting a bit of a chore for me these days (even if I am a gold member etc)!! FFS!

Choat replaced in 4th minute because of an injury. Ekuasi on.

#6 curse in NZ rugby continues

Territory and discipline. Auckland got it wrong in the first 7mins, pretty good in the next 25

[Duluth]

Annandale has been good in general play.. however I think the scrum has looked better this year when he’s not been in the second row?

[Stargazer]

HT: Taranaki 12 - 16 Auckland

[Stargazer]

Logan Crowley, another player stretchered off with possibly a season-ending injury.

How many times does Funaki get caught lacking - happens every week

Bad call for the drop kick

[Canes4life]

lol Zarn thinking he’s Dan Carter

[Kirwan]

Why?!? Not a natural ten yet.

[Yeahtheboys]

Pissing down rain in to the wind with a damp field and he goes for a 45 meter drop kick with no advantage after full time…..

[Yeahtheboys]

Sullivan is a #12 and he might be an all black 12 if they make that decision.

RTS was never a 12, he was always a fullback / wing
