Auckland v Harbour

[Steven Harris]

Can never work out why there has to be a break in play before a carded player can re enter the game..the penalty is severe enough without having to wait another minute for a stoppage.

Good quality game despite the conditions..can see the loss of Mafilio at scrum time had an immediate effect..
Auckland forwards looking good.

[Kirwan]

Pretty good quality game considering how bad the conditions are

[African Monkey]

@Kirwan Definitely. We don't wanna give these guys a sniff....

Yep, they showed they would gladly capitalise on a mistake.

This. Good game.

Auckland backs look to be well drilled again - playing to space.

[Kirwan]

@KiwiMurph I really liked the nine, haven’t missed a beat losing Ruru.

[KiwiMurph]

@Kirwan very impressive first 40.

[Bovidae]

I noticed that Karl T swapped to the TH side for that last scrum.

[Kirwan]

@Bovidae is their prop coming back? Him going off has removed their main advantage

[African Monkey]

@Kirwan He's plugged away in club rugby for many years at Ponsonby and even played a few tests for Samoa a few years back. Good to see him making the most of his opportunity so far.

[Bovidae]

@Kirwan Unlikely. I'm sure Li was at TH for the scrum before that got demolished.

[Kirwan]

@African-Monkey nice kicks for the exits, crucial with this weather. Seems to be able handle the messy rucks too.

[Kirwan]

Dumb penalty from NH to start

[Kirwan]

Shock, another penalty in the 22 from NH

[Yeetyaah]

Classic Plummer

[Kirwan]

@Yeetyaah consistently inconsistent

[African Monkey]

@Yeetyaah Haha thought he was kicking a bit too well...

[Kirwan]

@African-Monkey he got the hard ones, then misses that

[Kirwan]

Stevenson has a howitzer for a boot

[Kirwan]

Habour in after a good buildup
