Southland vs Auckland

Good to see Choat getting a start. With Gibson injured (shock!) we need our 3rd openside to have some game time
No Umaga? He's not listed as injured either. He's another that I thought would need game time.
With Kirkpatrick back maybe he'll be the back up flyhalf for the semis? That might explain Umaga's omission

Hey, at least it's consistent. Aftera ll, they dished one out in the SA NZ test for the same offence, right?

Completely justified. He knocked it down to stop Nanai on the inside.

Not saying it wasn't correct, just saying the law is an arse. 10 mins for that is excessive in my opinion. Who wants to watch 15 on 14?

Up to the player not to infringe so stupidly

They know how it is ruled these days. Agree or not, but knocking down a ball in an attacking situation is a straight yellow.
Unless you're SA.
