Auckland v Wellington

[Canes4life]

Come on Lions hold the ball.

[antipodean]

How is that straight? It's a simple thing to get right as a ref - outside shoulder is the big signal.

[SouthernMann]

Interesting Auckland keep.on going left at the moment. Go right lads. Get it to Tangitau. Much better than Ah Wong

Yeah that was crooked as hell.

[taniwharugby]

@antipodean yep, thier pre-season game it seemed that way.

Which is good to have other styles challenging things, for so long we had largely 1 style

[Canes4life]

I still don’t see why our best distributing centre is playing on the wing.

[Canes4life]

That was beautiful by Wellington. Clarke in the corner.

Auckland seem to not have a defence.

Numia off after being on limited mins.

Your backline seem to doing well enough.

[Canes4life]

@antipodean haven’t noticed Julian Savea. But yeah they are going well. Still would rather our best 12 plays 12.

[Nepia]

Who the fudge is the defence coach for the Blues? Their backs are waving players through like they're all Aaron Mauger clones.

[Canes4life]

Way too easy for Wellington.

[Bones]

That looks like offside to me. Ball bounced off Lauaki and PUJ picked it up again.

It didn’t look right did it. I expected the ref to blow his whistle.

[Bones]

Lakai had some decent pass on that first try.

[Bovidae]

Kirifi is a star at this level.

[Canes4life]

JGB back to his usuals ways.

[SouthernMann]

That is shithouse from Karifi and Lakai.

[Canes4life]

Jeez that tackle attempt from Garden Bachop was horrible.

I think you mean Garden-Bachop and Kirifi.

Nah. The loosies need to take some ownership of that area. JGP should not be ledlft to his own to manage a no8 taking it from rhe back.
