Taranaki vs North Harbour

[Number 10]

Tevita Li scored five tries for North Harbour against Taranaki last year at Albany.

Can he do it again this year? Currently on four.

Good choice Tana letting Gatland go and keeping Perofeta..absolute master stroke..!

@steven-harris But, but ... Perofeta is the Blues' saviour!

[Machpants]

Ah love to see the splitters (only NZ Province without a SR title?) to get stuffed!

[Steven Harris]

@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.

Cheers Harbour, that win will help Counties

[Steven Harris]

@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.
