v Counties-Manukau
-
Yeah loving our all round depth at the moment, anyone stepping in is doing thier job, particularly our loosie depth, with 7 guys that we are comfortable starting, in such a high attrition position you need it too.
Hopefully we can get through tomorrow with a couple of points and no further injuries and move on to HB next week where we may be able to secure a home semi if we can win and some other results fall for us.

That's a strong side!
We need points from.this game
-
@taniwharugby Auckland did us a huge favour beating the Bay & not offering up any bonus points,but would rather we put our destiny in our hands,Counties Manukau will be desperate to get away from the bottom of the premiership table..!
-
@taniwharugby we can win this game and have to play with that mindset. Accuracy, retain ball, don't give away territory with silly penalties- and we have the players to score points. Arguably Auckland has a great team on paper but we should have won that one.
-
Damn, Mitre 10 preview has us edging this one...
TAB has them solid faves though
-
Poor defending but looks like 2 forward passes there
-
Looks like Macilai ain't out there, injured in warm up?
-
Kara don't look good
-
Back to back line out losses...
-
And another....fark
-
Noooo
-
Draw and pass was the right option, just needed to be forward a bit more and still Solomon shoulda caught it
-
Not looking good at moment, still too many errors
-
Average there, barely got to,the gain line through all those phases
-
Nice work Ram
-
Good aggressive d from CM against our passive attack
-
Very average defence...I do hate how you can attempt to turn the ball over and drag the guy along the ground due to not releasing and not be awarded
