Auckland vs Canterbury

KiwiMurph

This is like the Canterbury cheer squad on commentating...cripes.

KiwiMurph

Prattley again...

Stargazer

Auckland had that card coming. Nee Nee takes one for the team.

KiwiMurph

Does this Canterbury team have anything but a rolling maul?

KiwiMurph

It turns out they do - just run at Jono Hickey - good plan that - dude is a turnstyle. Canterbury try.

Hickey tackles like a wicket keeper

Tim

Shocking non-penalty call there. Even Marshall spotted it.

Tim

Even TJ spotted the next one.

KiwiMurph

Yep Auckland not much hope when Canterbury are getting the rub of the green.

I hope GPT is one of the ones off contract - he can fuck off.

Tim

@kiwimurph Awful throwing this year.

Tim

Nice work Prattley.

Wondered why Marshall was twittering on about a broken arm...

Stargazer

If Enari had a chance to be selected for the Maori ABs, then he can forget about that now. Always awful seeing a player going off like that.

Tim

Has anyone seen a replay of the big cleanout (Prattley?). Lucky to stay on the field?

Tim

@stargazer Freak accident too. Poor bastard.

Stargazer

@tim Yes, I'm surprised he's not even penalised.

Tim

@stargazer On the other hand, Canterbury very lucky not to be carded for a professional foul there.

Stargazer

Second half will be interesting. Canterbury have their first choice frontrow waiting on the bench.

KiwiMurph

Very impressed by Plummer. For one year out of school he looks really really good.

Nice to see Auckland showing some ticker.

@kiwimurph Love how he isn't afraid to take the line on. Playing like a tough St Peter's boy.

We'll probably go on to lose but at least they're having a go unlike most of our performances this season.
