I don't know how much of this is good from the Moooloo/Shit from us.
Also begs the question on how crap Auckland are.
I known how you are feeling Crucial. Me, Stockcar86 and the rest of the HB boys had to endure something similar just an hour or so ago. No, on reflection, we were demolished way worse than you guys are currently getting rolled for. Is it a quiet day for you at work up there?

@Crucial They are just giving the ball away too easily via penalties, errors and poor kicking. Waikato seem to have more time, forwards are very effective in making ground.
Watching it now. Can't understand why we aren't running onto passes and being so passive in defence. It's like Cheika has taken over.

No, busy. Had to get a few things out of the way before I could get the stream going and pretend to do some more work.

This is no excuse for our poor play but Fraser has a big blindspot when it comes to players in front of the ball at the breakdown. Every ruck the Mooloo players just walk past the ball with a vague finger on the bodies and keep walking into the CM players

@Crucial pretty common these days with most team setting up their blockers. Refs need to start pinging them for it. I did hear him warning Waikato to get behind the ball.
Yeah, I just find it weird that 'blockers' is even part of the rugby language when, by law, there is no way you can set up in a blocking position. There are clear laws on offside and being bound to a ruck and these can easily be seen and enforced, yet they get ignored.

Just got back from the game. I'm happy with the win and 5 pts after Waikato let C-M back into the game in the 2nd half. It did seem like whoever had the ball would score though .
Strange tactics by C-M, and in particular Pulu, with those long kicks.
Beaver got a good applause when he left the field.
Very impressed with Sullivan up close. This kid looks to have a big future.
Manihera is playing well too and scoring tries for fun.
