Steamers in Tauranga
-
Moulds been outstanding
-
@steven-harris shoulda have played the off side!
-
@steven-harris is Matthews still on the bench? Olsen came in as a loosie sub and goes to hooker
-
@taniwharugby agree,the good thing is we are showing some real ticker with several guys that were playing for the Dev team 2 x weeks ago
-
@steven-harris we'll just ignore the opening 30
-
Terrible option from Sykes..
-
@steven-harris and execution
-
@taniwharugby why go to a lineout when your struggling..?
-
Wow what an offload from Gregory
-
@steven-harris and have no locks...
-
haha....useless cnuts!
This is what its about supporting NOrthland...frustrating as fuck half the time, sit back and marvel the rest.
38-35 final score.
-
Is that possibily the try of the season..?
-
@steven-harris Possibly the worst refereeing performance of the year.
Have to be a little bit satisfied with the gutsy finish from a scrapped together team. Faiane pretty handy 10 minute debut. -
@steven-harris yep, started with the lovely cut out pass from Faiane to the big break by Gregory and the support from Olsen to Cooper to McNamara to Hyland, superb.
@Northlandallday reckon the ref in the HB game was the worst we have had.

We missed a few calls and his interpretation of a maul was a bit ridiculous but don't think any of the tries came from bad decisions. Only game we had affected by a ref this year was HB.
Silly mistakes killed us today. Sykes kick and 19 missed tackles in the 1st half were the difference. Still considering we were down so many first choice players it wasn't a bad effort.
Gregory has to stay in the midfield. Matiu and Moulds were huge in the pack. Considering Stokes wasn't originally in the squad he put in a good shift. Nock was very strong, don't know why we sub him for the sake of subbing him
-
@chiefy07 Fair call. Just a bit frustrating with some pretty average calls amplified by some pretty average play.
-
@northlandallday I think thats the thing, he made an error and next minute they are scoring a try so made the error much larger, from our POV.
His maul calls were a bit frustrating, but he made a couple that we benefitted from too so at least he was consistent haha.
Oddest one was that scrum where he told them to use it, they proceeded to fark around for another 7 or 8 seconds to draw a penalty, that was shit.

Have to be a little bit satisfied with the gutsy finish from a scrapped together team. Faiane pretty handy 10 minute debut.Got to disagree,we were the architects of our own demise,that first half we needed to use that wind by utilising Debreczeni’s boot,without 3 main lineout options it was always going to be a sturggle not o mention the 19 missed tackles in the first half.
I thought the scrum set piece in the main barring a couple of scrums were good.
What I enjoyed the most,we showed heaps of ticker..and many of the guys that have played more Dev rugby rugby stood up..Stokes,Manu and Albornez showed why they have stood up in the playing for the Dev squad..Great to Wiseguy Faiane play a cameo,his pass to Gregory inside the 22 was perfect,right into the players as he hit acceleration..
Today my best were Moulds,McNamara and Nock..Gregory came into his own in the last 10 -
