Taranaki vs Northland

taniwharugby

@J77 our forwards have set a reasonable platform for us to launch from, but we have then fizzled out with error after error.

Need to push Gregory in to 12, if fit, Tua to 13, or even Hyland, if not injured.

Our 12/13 has been very poor today bar that good period on defence for about 12 phases in the 1st half.

@taniwharugby and play smart rugby.

J77

I get a feeling the injury list is going to be horrendous this week.

Looks like it’ll be Northland B vs Hawkes Bay next week.

kev

@J77 that would be scary.

taniwharugby

one of the naki guys pulled on a northland jersey in that passage, he was never gonna be involved, but still a jersey pull

taniwharugby

@J77 hopefully none are too serious...did Goodhue go off with a head knock again

kev

How many time have we seen that. Support players running too close to the player with the ball and ending up ahead of them.

When I have a look at this game I think the Coaches have to take a lot of the blame.

did Hohaia try to knee that ball back instead of going to deck?

Gunner

Hohaia can fuck right off.

That is u10 shit trying to offload like that while smothered in opposition players.

Simply no awareness, there wasn’t even anyone there to try to pass to.

No arms, off the ball, where is the YC?

taniwharugby

longest 2nd half ever...

just stop it, stop it now!

J77

did Hohaia try to knee that ball back instead of going to deck?

He sure did. Fucking cool aye?

taniwharugby

@J77 I'm gonna go with NO.

Gunner

No yellow, are you serious?

J77

@J77 I'm gonna go with NO.

A Hohaia special

taniwharugby

@J77 then his run from deep and pass to no one...he really is stifling things at the moment, that and the handling of half our team

Gunner

Sums us up right there.

Deb with a break but no one within a bloody mile to take advantage.

Good try in the corner.

taniwharugby

hahaha, Ian JOnes, HOhaia been one of our best???

For me, Matiu, Caird, LEvien, Roberts-Te Nana, Te Whata-Colley can all hold thier heads high.

Gunner

Levien has been one positive IMO.

Has a good pass, he looks to have given Deb a bit more time since coming on by just clearing the damn thing without taking a couple of steps first...

Been threatening with the ball in hand too.

Gunner

@taniwharugby because Magpies

taniwharugby

@Gunner Nock has a very good pass but he is too hesitant.
