but the half-pregnant structure we have at the moment is a bit lop sided.
agreed, but then that applies from NPC upto Super rugby.
I expect Covid is going to be the catalyst that simply forces change

Farrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk.
Went around to a mate from Southlands place for a catch up and to watch the game. Shit idea.
Came home to the misses who is from Southland. Shit idea.
WANTED: New Friend and Misses.
Was a crap game from the magpies. Hard when its perfect weather in HB all year around to then adjust to sideways wind and rain...

@Magpie_in_aus I can't bring myself to comment other than to still be eternally thankful we are no longer being coached by Mr. Philpott where those sort of results we not exactly uncommon, although I think we managed to avoid getting tipped over by the Southland outfit during that time despite his role.

A famous leader once said I came I saw I conquered. The Magpies went to Invercargill with the same idea. What happened quite simply was that they got out played out thought, and appeared to have no plan B. Admittedly they made basic errors from the driving mail, but that's no excuse given the last 2 years theve been marsters at it. Some say the Weather?. Please there big boys playing with a very grippy synthetic ball. What happened was they got out passioned by a Southland team not willing to accept second best. For some reason whenever we play a side with a class prop in the opposition we struggle. Our back play was pedestrian, predictable, and stamped out by Southland who tackled there hearts out, and good on them. Acceptable to Magpies fans? NO. Work to be done before facing Counties? You bet there is.

Southland win 10-6. Magpies were average as fudge.
16-10 actually. Left another 10 points out there too. Nice to still be strong enough to get the victory, even when rusty and error ridden.
FFS the Magpies have made me dyslexic!

That was a fair effort from the Stags in that final 20. Camped on their line for most of it and given their Recent history would probably have folded. A couple of good pieces for them.
Magpies, umm...

Can we delete this thread. I haven't been on for a few days login and see this hasn't died yet.

@Magpie_in_aus Here's something positive from the game.

Wow, the current Bay struggled but still won, hardly impressive but still won. We won’t miss Cane though
Just thought I would remind our Hawkes friends 😀
Apologies to @Magpie_in_aus who went through shit with this game
Lastly bring on the battle of the bays!
