@duluth Nice. Scrafton was in great form that year, and there were beautiful back moves.

That Piutau, Heem, Lam back three had some real power.

EDIT: Oops, it was Nanai at fullback and Piutau at centre. Moala at 12.

I rate Paul Feeney. He was a scapegoat at the Blues the following year

Great 40 for Pat T in this game:

Simple but effective tactic Auckland used in 2018 was to have Akira Ioane play halfback close to the line - opposition would be set to defend him hitting it up, creating space outside him.

Not sure where else to ask this.

Napier Boys' first five/fullback Afa Moleli seems to be moving to Auckland. Just wondering whether anyone has heard anything about him being picked up by the Auckland Academy? Not sure rugby is the reason for his move, but I think this was his last year at school, so I doubt he's doing another year at an Auckland school. Very talented player. Spent this week at Hurricanes Development camp.
