@Tim both teams finding ways to lose this game , Auckland probably the bigger culprit
That sums it up!

@KiwiMurph he favours on the defensive team over the ball, does not even give the tackle player time for a clear release ..to me this is his biggest weakness and also seems to pick and choose when players are cleaned out from the side ..

Pickerall blows so many holding on penalties.
Usually the wrong decision too!
This game was closer than I thought it would be. Waikato defended well against the bigger outside backs. We've played all year with blindsides at lock and no real openside since Mitch was injured. Hopefully something to build on.
Well done Auckland.

Did anyone else think Luke Jacobson was rather quiet?
He was on fire at no.8 until little brother got injured. I don't think Messam had had much impact in recent games, but you can't beat the experience he and Thomson provided.

Auckland played like a team expecting to win by 20.
Good to win without getting out of second gear, but need way more intensity next week. If we click, we’ll be hard to beat.
Last five minutes were a tough watch, like playing spin the wheel waiting for which way the arm would go in the penalties.
