Counties v Northland

@taniwharugby said in Counties v Northland:
Apparently Hawkins is available for selection and will be selected to start at 10 due to Faiane not being part of the main squad...
So is this a financial decision? I presume Hawkins is on a set amount and Wiseguy on per match payments?

@Duluth no idea, was something similar last year with someone else too.
Can't recall who
Although, still makes zero sense given Pryor has leapt over fully contracted players from the dev squad or WTG, whatever they calling it this year

Tuiloma might be making his Northland debut but has a fair bit of experience having represented South Canterbury and Counties Manukau and Highlanders.

interesting stat earlier, Northland have won 3 of thier last 30 away games...
-
man our defence on the outsides so suspect again.
-
not a good start by Kerr
-
but he was always connected to the maul?
-
nice t/o by Pryor
-
wow, that was a tough one
-
why did Ranger hold off on him, was always his man
-
If Counties lose this game, they'll compete with Manawatu for the wooden spoon.
-
fuck, Ranger almost lost that trying to off-load it
-
That's a try.
-
Ugh turned it on too see counties try
-
Counties 5 looks like he won a competition to play.
-
weight of possession telling there.
-
@Stargazer they won’t..Unfortunately it looks the Taniwha will have that honour ..
-
@Bones did a great example of a soccer playing diving on his player to seal off right in front of the ref before
-
Oh, that's sloppy.
-
haha great effort hitting the posts with conversion and then catching it

Haha yeah just always seems to be standing around in an odd position or diving on the ground when he doesn't need to.
-
How may times did their flanker knock it on...
-
more than 10 in that cabin!
-
@kev just twice
-
Then goes to clean out Nock and Nock goes straight through him. Then gets spat out the back of the lineout breakdown 😂
-
-
@Machpants oh yeah, Auckland are at level not 1

Level 2 not 2.5
-
Man Nock is terrible for putting his hands on the ball and then having a look at his options, he got caught out once last week
-
@Machpants Level not 1
-
Bloody knee injuries.
-
shit, so who goes to 8, Kara....
-
That's some manky fucking rugby from Northland
-
ref lettign players go straight off thier feet
-
Oh oh, there's the YC.
-
bit harsh, but odds on.
-
It's pouring down, now.
-
try #2...great initial drive by Northland but let them slide and was no stopping them
