semi final v Waikato
-
I am staggered that you guys managed to get raped by the DSW a coupe of weeks back. Things looking reasonably promising for a Championship final in Napier next weekend so please don't you blow it from here Northland, although now at 14 - 21 things are looking a bit more dicey than I would like.

You’re dreaming, this is Northland, we can blow a 14 point lead quicker than anyone in the business.

Fuck this will be a game changing 10 minutes. If Waikato don’t level the scores or take the lead I’ll be very surprised
What did I tell you. Our defence the second half of this season has been nothing short of a disgrace.
28-21
Hope you had a good 10 minute break Nock, you’ve got a game to go and fucking win back now. In fact leave him off, get Kitto on.

That yellow has cost Northland 3 Waikato tries.
I wish I could say I didn’t see it coming.

Fuck we’re done, the backs just shovelling the ball along the backline and Waikato pick off an easy intercept.
Waikato have scored 31 points in the last 23 minutes.
What is it with us and conceding big points very quickly? Is it a mental thing and switching off? Fitness? What ever it is, it’s shithouse.
Fuck being a Northland supporter has to be one of the toughest gigs there is. Consistently disappointed.

We have some younguns who are brilliant and terrible every week. Once they get a bit more experience they could become unbeatable. Disappointing finish but it started out Much better than we dared to hope for.

Even more than that he said he'd been a bit hard done by.
-
Well, I'd like to say we are better than that but I dont really think we are.
Some serious talent in there but something big goes missing and then we can't stop the other team doing anything.
We saw it in the 2nd spell v HB, v Waikato in the RR game and in the 38-50 min period this time and the opening 30 v BOP.
We get opened up and cant close the wound.

I just want to say , l love Northland. I love the wild ride they take me on week after week. I love the way I shout and scream at the tv when Northland play. No other sporting team brings this unbridled passion out like the Taniwha.
Wow we have some amazing raw talent when let loose can create th he most amazing tries from almost nothing. I just love that about the Taniwha. I love the way our Northland folk at home come out and support the Taniwha, unlike many of the big boy provinces....and just one day we are going to have our day of reckoning, we have just got to take care of some of the more clinical aspects of rugby and then maybe we will get some of the 50/50 decisions go for us that at the moment seem often to go cruelly against us. I hope the boys from 2018 stay together and take plenty from what they have achieved. Thank you Taniwha of 2018 you rock.
