That was unfortunately correct...is the 20 min RC in play?
Shame cos manu was going well
-
-
@taniwharugby Hallam Eames has gone very well
-
Fark these league rules
-
Luatangi Li with his 7 minute bronco and given the fact the he’s only just got on the field was to slow to make a tackle on the halfback ..that 2 minutes must have taken a lot out of him
-
Hohaia looks like a cart horse …

How’s the fitness of the rest of the squad? Thought a few players were looking gassed late in the first half

I can’t believe the Johnny Cooper I saw as an 18 year old running around for Ponsonby steering them to a Gallagher Shield title looking like he it would only a matter of time before he played for Auckland has turned into this ..he could play wing or fullback and was in amazing shape ..

These players are better than this.

@kev if Hohaia has been bad ,Gregory has been next level worse
Everything in this team is just way off. You could see it in the first game - intensity, skill levels , speed.

what a shambles that 2nd half was!!
There is no point me mentioning Hohaia, cos I done clocked that game!!
Gregory, one of his worst shifts, accuracy was poor, hands like feet!
I did like Tu'ungafasi, although he spent alot of the 1st half being tended by the physio, so no surprses he went off.
Manu was looking good, until the 42nd minute.
Gotta say they looked flat the moment they came out of the sheds, and then Grant put up that kick that put us straight under the pump, then a few phases later, bye Manu.
Nock was looking good, Reihana does look a class act.
I like Hallam-Eames, busy and abrasive, Rob RUsh was pretty good out there too, boy he is a unit.
That red was the game changer, thought we were still in it, but we lacked the energy in the 2nd spell, Caird sparked them when he came on, but too little too late.
Tua looked handy in his few minutes, Leilua looking the best he has, then got injured, didnt really see what happened, thought may have been an HIA?
So Manu likely 3 week break, wonder if now they put in a call to Matich, although he probably wouldnt want to join now!
2 games, 2 Red cards...yikes!!
Oh, the big screen is a superb addition to the ground, although means we all saw a couple of forward passes the ref didnt haha
