Auckland vs Canterbury

[African Monkey]

@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.

[KiwiMurph]

@african-monkey He also seems like a good decision maker - and that is helping the backline a lot.

[Tim]

He'll need to increase his punt distance, and work on moving straight ahead when passing (he turns his body a lot at times). Very good composure so far for a 19 yo.

Nice work Prattley.

"Nice"?

That's an extremely tame adjective for you.

I would have almost expected, "The awesomely destructive Prattley decimates a Canterbury scrum".

But, it's Prattley.

However, having decided he's a scud missile, Prattley puts himself on full launch mode. That clean out bears some looking at.

I've been up very late on conference calls this week - I just don't have my usual energy!

[Tim]

Yeah, Ireland are welcome to have Jager back.

[Tim]

Nice boot from Plummer.

[KiwiMurph]

Another error from GPT - he is garbage. Another Aucklander on the field for Canterbury

[KiwiMurph]

Akira goes beast mode for a turnover.

[Tim]

Prattley really woke up after those scrum penalties.

[KiwiMurph]

Hahaha Hickey woeful again.

[Tim]

This ref is woeful. Counter ruck is fine means you can go in from the side now (Sanders).

[Donsteppa]

It’s been lucky for a few players that this ref doesn’t like referring anything to the TMO...

[Donsteppa]

Woeful effort in defence from the Canterbury fullback there.

Auckland back in the lead.

[Tim]

McKay is very, very lucky. This ref is pretty dreadful.

[Tim]

McKay must've felt guilty.

[Higgins]

The Auckland tryscorer moved up very quickly there, way before the ball had passed over the end of the lineout.

[Donsteppa]

Lead about to change hands again as the Auckland pack fall to bits

[KiwiMurph]

Yeah I think Canterbury will run away with it now.

[Tim]

Huge change in the Canterbury scrum with the replacements on.
