      Gregory wanted the ball when Wiseguy kicked it.

      Gutsy from Auckland to take their chances.

        Fortunate to get away with that. Hopefully we get our first stringers back next week.

        Adams gets my man of the match. He was everywhere in that 2nd half.

          If anyone was still wondrring why Wiseguy hasn't been playing today more than answered that question. Apart from one good chip into the corner his kicking was awful and it cost us big

              Northland terrible. How do you play a man up for 75% of the game, against a team without a hooker and lose?

              Up 8-0 at halftime too.

                    I'm so pissed about that, not worth going into the issues with the 2nd last try Auckland got, cos it should never have been that close.

                    Just dumb decisions week in week out, handling shite again.

                    Those 2 kicks by Grant and the final one by Faiane...just dumb.

                      I agree. He was one of our better forwards today.

                          Crazy game

                          I'm happy with the effort in that second half. The amount of work on defence was huge and the tries were well taken.

                          It was a bit windy out there but the quality of passing from Northland was poor. 14 man defence was constantly stretched and Northland just couldn't get it wide enough.

                          Refs were shit. Missed a lot both ways

                            Just come back from the game. Pissed. Auckland lineout was dreadful for obvious reasons. But the refs just decided to not call not straight. Auckland’s last two tries were off not straight throws. Really basic reffing that seemed optional. That, given the circumstances should have been called everytime. Just not good enough.

                            NB. Touch judge started game with error. Brady Rush took the ball from kickoff in touch.

                              Prime opportunity to pump Auckland wasted with some absolute cabbage play. Fucking pissed.

                              Bonus point is a consolation and much needed, but hell we need to step up big time for Waikato next week.

                              Why sub Nock? He should have stayed to help close out,he was by far the best on the paddock today for us.

                                so in that last 5 mins who was our captain?

                                Our captain and 2 others who were co-captains last week were all off subbed inside 5 or 6 mins...for me, these were the dumbest call of the day.

                                That was as big of an opportunity to beat Auckland as we will get, but we blew it through lack of structure and silly decisions

                                  Another positive was the goalkicking from Plummer and that long range effort from Sullivan

                                      Yup great distance. If I was picking the Blues he would be the starting fullback

                                      Still raw and he’ll make mistakes but he has a massive upside

                                        @taniwharugby did any one question the ref for that obstruction that lead to one of their tries? Didn’t look like it from what I could see, and that’s been the big issue with our leadership. Get in the refs ear and persuade him to have a look. Other skippers do it so well.
