The Bay v Manawatu
-
@Stockcar86 A little hard to interpret what you mean as we have no love for either team. Perhaps a drawn fixture that is called off early after an all in brawl and the NZRFU declare no points from the game for either team as the punishment?

@Higgins Look at the Championship table and you have your answer.
Go Manawatu -

Good to see a Hawkes Bay ref assigned to this game. I am sure he knows what is expected of him...
He is also a BoP player as well for a couple of seasons about ten years back it must be observed.

Fifteen three to The Steamers at halftime. Bad rain fade here in Wellington's Eastern Suburbs has has stopped the coverage for about the last twenty minutes so has given me the chance to watch Nephew Higgins crap team playing in the Australian NPC (but as I type that they fluke their second try to tie things up against Canberra!)
-
Manawatu will be kicking themselves ,the prop Sione runs a couple metres 2 far before drawing and passing ,instead passed far too late and forward ..and then Brayden Iose ignores a support runner on the inside..,and then to rub salt,Steamers go 90 metres back the other way..it’s a cruel game..
-
That looks like a brocken jaw for Trask
-
@Steven-Harris Poor lad has had a lot of injuries already. Sad to see him leaving the field like that.
-
@Stargazer never good to see, he’s had his share of injuries in the last 2 seasons..as soon as I saw blood, I knew it was’nt good.
-
Hard to see the Turbos coming back now, famous last words..difference being one team knowing how to take their chances ..

@Steven-Harris Yeah apart from handling, lineout, scrum, direct running, tackling, game plan, ruck play and back play penetration.... the only difference was BOP taking its chances.....
Oh actually now that I think about it... nah you are full of it when it comes to BOP for the second week in a row,
-
@Stargazer said in The Bay v Manawatu:
LOL, Matt Cooper already assuming Bop will win the Final.
Jesus... if I know one thing abit BOP never ever assume we will anything. Especially with the backline attrition we are facing.
I would put us slightly behind Hawkes if Trask is out and Hollinshead isnt back. -
@Baron-Silas-Greenback and I am living rent free your in head..long may it continue ..!
-
@Baron-Silas-Greenback You've got to feel sorry for Trask. Having been out injured for so long, and now again. We've got a few of those players, too. Some guys just don't have any luck.
-
@Stargazer every team has injuries, try being a Taniwha supporter, you could roll out a whole team..,we are basically using half of our Dev squad..,I know chatting to the Magpies coaches last week..they were saying they had been fortunate this year ,but had also been hampered by not having several players available at the start of season...
-
@Steven-Harris I wasn't talking about the number of injuries teams have. I was talking about some individual players (regardless of which team they play for) who just keep getting injured, some seriously and long-term.
-
@Stargazer My apologies,it was more around the the supporters that lament 1 or 2 key injuries and then take the underdog status.
