Northland vs. Auckland

J77

Hawkins a waste of space for us. Get J Deb back at 10. We’re getting owned at the ruck too.

Auckland with a well deserved lead, I expect them to double that at this rate.

African Monkey

@J77 Yeah don't know why Hawkins is out there. Suprised he's back at all for the Taniwha tbh.

Dice

@African-Monkey Breakdown work has been good too. Northland can't string many phases together because we keep getting turnovers.

J77

@African-Monkey yep bum move. Has no tactical awareness. This Leilua for you blokes looks good.

Dice

Too easy. Nice start to the 2nd half. Lam with an easy stroll in.

African Monkey

@J77 Yeah he's always been a gifted kicker of the ball since his school days.

J77

@African-Monkey he sure gets some distance.

Dice

Another sweet kick by Leuila. Clarke should've passed.

African Monkey

Great defence from Auckland, Ruru being a real nuisance in close.

Dice

Tele'a!

That'll be on Smash em Bro tomorrow.

Dice

Sotutu is a stud. How he didn't get much game time for the Blues this year is a mystery.

Dirty bastard pulling Gregory off by the hair

@Dice Playing Akira Ioane into the ground was a better option instead.

African Monkey

Not that it matters but was TJ Faiane not offside when he scored?

Only a metre or so

Yeetyaah

At least the Northland kit looks good.

J77

We were bullied. Men v Boys. Well done Auckland, deserved that one.

It was so obvious watching live so I have no idea what the AR was looking at.
