Mitre 10 Cup 2018

what are our other pre-season fixtures?
Guess we now know we will be without Goodhue, which isnt really surprising, but be nice for an update on some of the other injuries, some I expect are just niggles that there is no point playing them.
-
@taniwharugby I have been checking the site.... they do a much better job nowadays but we are close to start of season so time to provide more information. Get the fans pumped up!
-
@taniwharugby yep...I remember when we got nothing. Be good to get some articles on new guys.

Brilliant break from Hohaia and Rangers,see’s Moulds just tackled short of the line.

Another break see Moulds tacked in the corner,another missed opportunity..

@taniwharugby very solid,

Rangers drops ball with line open,still had had 30tp go,but I would have backed him,bugger

sounds like they had a rev up at the break!

@taniwharugby just not nailing all the chances,lots of changes starting to take place
