Taranaki vs North Harbour
-
@taniwharugby Haha, niggle is his middle name! But you'd expect a lot of this banter, with Hoeata having played for Harbour last year.
-
@stargazer yeah was all good natured, HOeata didnt come across as much of a boofhead as he does on the field.
He reckoned Parsons will need a helmet and 2 mouthguards!
I did love the comment about Stevenson being a 'bag of mince' tough!
Think it started about 1727 on RS, but was actually a good interview with Razor about 1710 as well

Good choice Tana letting Gatland go and keeping Perofeta..absolute master stroke..!
-
@steven-harris But, but ... Perofeta is the Blues' saviour!
-
@stargazer Missed that article..!,he’s definitely a rocks and diamonds type of player..more rocks than diamonds ..!.
-
Seriously guys we're talking up Bryn Gatland? The guy is journeyman at best.
-
@african-monkey might be a journeyman,but as a Blues supporter I would rather have more convincing back up to Otere Black than Perofeta who has terrible game management..not a case of talking a player up it’s about having a player that does most things right...
-
@steven-harris Plummer should really make a strong case for the Blues matchday 23. He will push Perofeta. Knowing the Blues though one or both of them will get injured.
-
@steven-harris Perofeta did struggle at times last season but he has far more upside than Gatland and ideally would have been coming off the bench last season but ended up starting. I'm convinced that he'll have far more impact next season coming off the bench providing Black stays fit.
@KiwiMurph I was very impressed with Plummer at 12 the other night. The kid has a massive future at 10/12 as he can not only run a game but isn't scared going into contact both on attack and defence.
