Perofeta needs the ball more.

was wondering earlier why Northland had to move thier game v Manawatu from Okara (due to womens RWC) yet Auckland are allowed to stay at EP?
It will be a turf assessment I guess.
EP is being hammered recently though.
Three games last week, this, and three next week.
Fair enough to ask I guess. What’s Okara like turf wise? -

It’s quite a science these days. Drainage and a bit of seed doesn’t cut it compared to the top stadia.
That big sports training centre is being built not far from us and they scraped the old grounds down a good metre or more to rebuild them with a sand and soil mix. Was quite impressive the amount of earth moving. -

It’s Pickerell. He gets confused anyway.

@Crucial ok, more confused...
So that clearly points to abs on restricted minutes, otherwise wtf take Perofeta off...
