North Harbour v Hawke's Bay
-
@Stockcar86 Exactly what I was thinking! McClutchie can play 80 minutes anyway, and if he goes down, they can move Makene. Makene was very good at fullback, last season.

@Nepia You don't get Fox Sports More on Kayo?
Funnily enough I just logged into my Kayo account to send my angry man letter and noticed it was available when it clearly wasn't when I first typed out that post.
Foxsports had it live on one of their extra channels and just showed a shortened replay on one of the regular channels.

Harbour looked good, but the Magpies fielded a B team, so hard to take much away from this game.
With today’s big defeat I reckon it puts that added pressure on those players that were rested today for next weeks Shield defence.

Yeah @Stargazer helpfully updated me (one time I'd rather he didn't) - but Kayo has panels like streaming services and when I first looked it didn't have one for it.

@ACT-Crusader nah, the shield is safe as down there, all but locked away for the summer, Wellington probably the only real challenge to come, I mean, Northland then Manawatu...

I hope Ozich will seriously consider giving Baker a rest . A season-ending rest. Now that McNicol is back, please, drop Sapsford, too. He must be the most handling error prone, most turnover conceding player we've had in a long time. These guys are sevens players, who need space. They can't handle XVs. How was Baker ever a Highlander?
Congratulations on having Luke Rooney and Marvan Karawana completely erased from your memory. Oh and you can also add Johan Schoonbee if looking for a forward to diss.

If we need someone who can cover midfield and outside backs, then Bubba did that last year. He was one of the few today who enhanced his reputation. I'd have him on the bench instead of Sapsford. Start Makene at fullback until McNicol is back in form.
Will he ever be? He looked considerably short of the standard required yesterday.

@Stargazer What do you mean? Given he is a full time professional rugby player he has had plenty of time to practice his skills and work on his fitness since then. Sadly they were all lacking yesterday to a big extent.
