Hawkes Bay v Northland
-
was a long 2 seconds call at that maul, that collapsed and took more time to come out
-
Best game I’ve seen McCluthie play. He’s playing very well. Playing inside Matt Giteau and Ma’a Nonu at the Legion this year would have been a great experience for him.
-
Jacob Devery has been very strong at hooker. Hopefully he’s the back-up to Aumua for the Canes and we don’t lose him to another franchise.
-
HB into thier stride now
-
good try, poor tackling at times too...
HB looking good with ball in hand
-
This is a fun game to watch.
-
McClutchie in early into the second half. He’s having a blinder. Love that he’s attacking everything, none of this kicking bullshit.
-
like last week, as soon as they get behind our first line of d, we are gettign opened up.
Game is so fickle, Murray was a fingertip from a likely score, 2 mins later HB score, then they do so again after halftime....need to sub NOck and Apoua
Shield safe.
-
McClutchie definitely outplaying Reihana tonight. If he doesn’t get a Super contract this time around, these coaches have rocks in their head.

@Donsteppa I changed my highest scorer from HB to Wellington...
-
that was a BS call from a ref who has been largely very good
-
What’s happened to Devan Flanders?
-
Well that was both disappointing and embarrassing with that many points being scored against us,
We had some good patches, but when HB were on, they were superb and thier running from depth at pace made our d look silly, although we did concede 3 tries by players simply not markign the outside man.
Think we have a few players who are passengers out there, and they are some experienced ones too.
Ref was very good, made a few errors, some cost points (both ways) but thought he controlled things well, although noticed refs not pinging neck rolls or players holding people around the neck as much recently.
I expect to see plenty of changes rung next week as we head into storm week.
