    “The coaching staff have been outstanding. There’s been an extra level in detail and preparation – they’ve challenged us with different ideas and created a culture of healthy competition and care for each other.”

    Hmm, that doesn't seem to bode well for the All Black's attacking strike plays, the guy designing them (Holland) is apparently not very big on attention to detail...

        @BerhamporeNinja we threw double sixes. The boys are back. Let’s all get back on the bandwagon.
        Ps had corporate box so actually went last night. Was a decent crowd.

          @chchfanatic I don’t know if I’d be getting overly excited at winning your second game at home.

            @mikey07 it’s crazy that was only our third home game. Magic round must’ve been a home game for us.
            You have to admit they looked good last night. Throw in Codie Taylor and Fergus Burke and we could surprise.
            The playoff system is so stupid. We should never be in with a chance to still win it.
            Chiefs Blues or hurricanes should win from here though.

              @chchfanatic Oh God it was only the Rebels haha. The Linwood div 4 front row could have put up a better effort than that Rebels starting front row.

              Nor gonna lie though, it would be quite funny if what everyone loves to say down here about the Crusaders coming 8th and going on a run actually did happen haha.

                Gibbons the LH who Newell demolished is touted as a Wallaby this year.
                Bower then smoked Tupou another wallaby.

                Their Hooker they brought on from the bench another Wallaby last year.
                If you have watched the Rebels games this year their scrum has been very good.

                  @Chris I have. They were good at scrum time against the lesser sides. I support MP as well and watch every Drua game so I watch plenty of the lesser sides haha.

                  Their scrum was terrible last night. I'm wondering if they had the wrong studs in last night like the Force last year because they were going backwards at a ridiculous rate.

                          Articles like this make me laugh. For all we know they could bomb out first week in the playoffs and no one would be ranking them highly at all. Make the call at the end of the season.

                                  @Duluth I don’t mind him signing an extension as he provides experience but am more excited with the younger players signing extensions.

                                    Great news. With Ardie coming back I was thinking we may not hold on to Flanders & Iose.

                                    How long is Lakai locked away for?

                                        @Duluth you'd have to think so - they can't all fit. A shame as I think Howden is a great player too.

                                          @Duluth he could be AB quality with more opportunity. Expect him to shift to another franchise.
