@J77 said in Ta$man v Northland:
Can someone tell me where this team went from the first 5 rounds? Absolutely shocking. What an embarrassment
Nothing positive to say. To me our forwards are where they need to be but the backline D is way off, and we are being picked apart by the teams that run at us.

Would not complain if that was Ranger and Hohaias last game in blue. Hate saying that about Rene, but Blake can sod right off.
How about a Tua/Murray midfield and give this young Tama Anderson a shot on the wing for the next games. Time to start prepping for next year and beyond as we have completely sacked this season.

Is actually a bit sad watching Rene this season, true Taniwha legend, but he has dropped off so far from last year, then you combine him with a guy who barely looks the goods at club footy year after year, Hohaia, up against one of the form mid-fields in the comp...I reckon between them they missed at least 8 tackles by my count, thats without taking into account them rushing out and getting no where near the carrier to be counted as a miss (that move is definitely from last years play book)
Off the top of my head, there is at least 6-8 players Northland need to move on from, 6 played today!
This season went from so good to just awful so quickly...the euphoria of the Auckland win, to shipping 150 points in the next 3 games
Unsure how they will approach BOP now, as it is a must win for us to have any shot, hopefully Waikato take the shield so BOP take an eye off us...
I think Going needs a start, maybe some of the young guys, Anderson, Vaipulu, Nankivell, Hape, KIng etc need a run in the next 8 days

@taniwharugby it’s like we thought we were kings of the castle after the Auckland game and pretty much turned the lights out and went to the beach. Typical laid back Northland attitude. Such a frustrating team to follow.

MOTM poll v Ta$man...I know it was a bit average, but at least vote, are certainly a few players deserving!
