v Waikato

[kev]

Good luck to the guys - start strong, play tough and smart and we can win this.

[Gunner]

This wet weather might be a good thing for us, as our pack is our strength.
Tuck the ball up your jumpers lads and prepare for a battle in the trenches.

[Haydos]

I think Nock out for the season, Goodhue will be 50-50 for the harbour game,
Agree with everything Gunner said

[taniwharugby]

Thought it was a tad arrogant to go to the line out with 3 points on the offer, shame we could only get 3

[African Monkey]

C'mon Northland!

[taniwharugby]

Thought if you were on your feet you could do what you like at the breakdown?

[taniwharugby]

Don't let up northland!

25-8 5 to go in half

[broughie]

@taniwharugby You are winning for the first time in a while. Don't be greedy.

[taniwharugby]

32- 8 at the break...

Wtf....hopefully Waikato run out of steam.

[kev]

Kicking a lot better, exits still need work. Waikato have made a lot of mistakes handing us the ball and releasing pressure.

Breen's little chip kick was a little cute and inside our red zone - we should try not to do that again. Play position and pressure and grind them down. Waikato look ( mentally ) tired.

[Gunner]

I can't believe what I'm watching.

Up 32-8 at half time, I'm just waiting for the shit to hit the fan...

Need to do better on our exits, especially when they're giving us al the time in the world.

Lose is a knob, he has said about 5 times that Breen is a loan player. Bugger of you idiot.

[kev]

Dumb rugby - don't create the mall, but the penalty before had was average

[kev]

Make substitutions now....

[kev]

For fs get the subs on now!!!

[Stockcar86]

Fuck my picks, Go Taniwha!

[taniwharugby]

Here they come....get markwick on!

[taniwharugby]

These breakdown rules suck

[kev]

Bloody exits shit, shit, shit

[taniwharugby]

Fuck...1 more will seal it surely

[broughie]

Come on Waikato. Get within 8.
