For all his size, he’s not really using it as far as I can see. Beehre is far busier

Vikina, Behere and Plummer

Moulds, Hallam Eames, Milo Harris. So close yet no cigar.

Thomas then.............?

Moorby, Adams for that chip kick catch, Murray. Matich was good also. Harris was also there apart for that brain explosion at half time.

@ACT-Crusader well they did have a period where they used our 12 as a battering ram, but not using Laumape to do his thing...

Choat, Thomas, RTS

I understand the votes for Smith and I think he did play well overall. However, his box kicking is just so far behind Dupont's. I know it is not necessarily his fault, it was the tactic to box kick. But those balls needed to be kicked long and going back to Beauden, Jordan or Mo'unga to do so.

We didn't chase any of his box kicks

Well Jordan might have chased a couple...

@Kirwan said in Auckland MOTM v Southland:

One of those games where you could pick eight players.

can I pick Zarn's pass twice? His long balls were superb (again). He's warming into 10, still some 15 play (slow kicks) but overall starting to coem to terms with running the cutter

After Ta$man: Murray 3, BKP 2 and single point each to Hallam-Eames, Rush and Mau'u

Spencer, McKenzie & Angus

Evans would’ve got a vote but that was costly miss. Akira good on defence didn’t get much going on attack. Tangitau a big improvement on his previous matches

This is kinda like voting for the least tragically injured person in the room after a fragmentation grenade goes off...

@Duluth said in Auckland MOTM v Shield Snorters:

Choat, Ioane & RTS

Evans, Fusitua, Tuipulotu we’re close too

Easy picks this week.

I went with BKP, Murray and Mau'u.

Best game from BKP, full of the energy I see at club, hit his targets (bar 1) and nice turn of pace shown in one of his nice runs.
Mau'u, another who isnt as fit as he should be, but huge engine, great pressure at the breakdown, tackles, just what you want from a 7
Murray, man I hope Northland lock this kid down, and hope he gets a super gig next year, sure he aint an out and out wing, but he is quick enough and he is a facilitator out there, not to mention the fact he scores on both sides of the park (did both last week and last night) goes looking for work and seems such a smart player.

Akira, Plummer and Sullivan for me. Huge game from Akira, even stealing lineouts.

Jesus, the backs let the forwards down in this game.

@taniwharugby agree Milo has been really good. What Nock started to do with the Blues is play a bit like Aaron Smith. Quick ball, speed of pass. So nothing against Milo except to say when Nock is on, he has quicker pass.
