Jeez Ruru straight in from the side!

Yeah should have been a penalty the other way.

[Steven Harris]

@Chris-B Auckland have definitely turned up with attitude, I do like the way their loose forwards are working ..Ruru was very fortunate at that last breakdown ..did not look like he came back and around ..

[Higgins]

@Nepia Looks like we may have played them out of form after last week!

[KiwiMurph]

If Auckland had a decent halfback they'd be looking even better.

[Steven Harris]

@KiwiMurph your not wrong there about Ruru , for every one good thing he does , it’s offset with about 3 bad things..good contest though..

He was number two halfback behind Chris Eaton at Hawkes Bay!

[KiwiMurph]

Hunt and Plummer both rubbish at kicking for touch.

[Steven Harris]

@Higgins that’s right, back in 2015, he made just the one appearance back for the magpies , x Napier boys.., I reckon the bay May have dodged a bullet ..

[Chris B.]

A bit more like it - winning the scrum penalty and kicking the goal.

Weren't we supposed to have Hometown for this game? It's a bit noticeable that we haven't!

[Chris B.]

Losing those two loosies could hurt us badly.

Blackadder would have been slated to go 80 minutes, with Taufua to come on for Squire are 50 minutes - and Cirikadaveta probably for Pari Pari after 60 minutes.

All those guys will have to go 80 minutes now - and I think they'll have to delay Roach for Makalio, as well.

Nice scrum penalty to Ta$man, forward battle has gone Aucklands way so far. Been a very good game.

[Steven Harris]

2 great tackles , first by Havilli and then by Ruru..

[Steven Harris]

Gee , I would have kicked for the corner..I think you need to show some intent ..I stand to be corrected

[Chris B.]

Come on Will - we need you!

Beer in cupboard -

You're spending more time in there than @Donsteppa does behind his couch.

[Siam]

@Chris-B spiteful tackle

[Yeetyaah]

Just tuned in. Looks like it's been a quiet game? Did Ethan Blackadder dislocate his shoulder then Taufua go off straight away?

[Steven Harris]

This game is bloody awesome..on such a knife edge ..!

[number9]

@Yeetyaah Quiet game NO WAY. This game is what a semi final is all about.

[Yeetyaah]

@number9 oh mint. Wish I wasn't out for the first half.
