North Harbour v Northland
-
@kev i think Mullan is back, although odd Hutchings was poor as his other hit outs he has been good, especially coming on 60 mins before planned (same v Ta$man it think it was)
Gotta feel for that Howling kid, 160 mins of bench warming and yet to take the field.
Like Jordan's work at the back, brave under the high ball, and on the flip side we at least put pressure on many of.our kicks, if only Brady racing forward.
Some good stuff out there, disappointing we didn't kick on given at one point it seemed we might, but take the Dub and move onto Canterbury

@taniwharugby the last 20 minutes of 1st half was really good. Just needed more accuracy in first 5 mins of 2nd half - 2 lineouts and one kick to the line from a penalty - and I think we would kicked on.

@taniwharugby said in North Harbour v Northland:
I'd say 9 times out of 10 we dont win that.
That's the difference this year, a bit more mental strength.
Saw this game as a mental battle, NH starting to get super desperate to try and get something out of the wreckage, and Taniwha starting to show a bit of [fragile type] form.
If they execute a little better, they'd start to get difficult to beat.
Always a good feeling when you get the W, and you know you can play better.
Still two games, might nail it yet.
