Auckland vs Canterbury

Do they serve full strength beer at Eden Park?..... maybe @dogmeat can ask one of his mates for me?
A bit disappointed we haven't gone full strength for this one. I've seen Makene play a few times and don't think he's anything special, Bridge has been one of our best this year.
A pretty weak tight five too. Gawler, Vella and Dalzell all a big step down from the men they are replacing.
Luke Whitelock back is good though, surely our defense wont leak 50+ again with him on the field, hope he hits Ioane hard a few times

Not sure about the beer situation, but apparently the Chardonnay and Latte’s are superb....

If Canterbury can't win this by 50 they should walk home.

Usually Tui. It's full strenght, but not really beer.
Okara Park had steinlager in a can. Now that's customer service

Makene was quite solid for the Mako$ last year, but he's a bit little. Interesting they're playing him at fullback and McKay on the wing. I would have expected them to be switched.
@Kiwimurph - Yeah - looks like a good chunk of the starting pack on the bench. Should help avoid the sort of points scoring reversal that led to the Shield loss.

Hickey throws it a meter forward and Auckland scores

It turns out they do - just run at Jono Hickey - good plan that - dude is a turnstyle. Canterbury try.
Hickey tackles like a wicket keeper
