Northland v Manawatu
-
@Chiefy07 yeah both of those calls are odd.
Going hasn't really had a shot, guve him one game where he was solid, then drop him...Konia has a love of Hohaia that I cannot see why.
As to Goodhue on the bench for the penultimate game of the season??
I can only assume as they been doing that most of the year, it is because he is heading overseas and they (against most other evidence) are looking at the future with Craig.
While on paper, this side should be too strong, they are playing with fire not putting our very best foot forward, for what may or may not be our last game.
Nock is another, been in poor form this season, although LMH wasn't at his best on Wednesday so coin toss really.
Outside that, can't argue too much with the starting 15, a couple of quibbles on the bench but, again, the starters should be strong enough that the bench will not matter hugely.

If the guys can’t get up for this game then?
Big game for us - making the playoffs would be significant for this team.
I guess we’ll find out tomorrow just how much resolve this team has.
Do we lift and blow Manawatu off the park, or will the fact that this is basically an extra quarter final for us be too much and we cake it?
If I was to answer that, I’d say it’s a bit of a lottery, because an age old tradition with a Northland sides is you never know what team is going turn up on the day.

Team named on Social media

in some ways, that result makes it 'easier' for us tomorrow, in that we just need to win, no need to worry about a BP, just beat them and we get a trip to Christchurch...

Surely you will win this one. At home against the only team without a win.

Wet weather has hung around longer than expected, so she gonna be a wet one.

Still expect some showers, possibly heavy, but Lindvart Park in Kaikohe looks in decent nick despite the rain thats been about

So despite the thing about all teams wearing pink socks for breast cancer, it appears it was only the home teams

It will be tough with wind. Short better option

Nice passage there for Rush to finish.

After great forward work that was a nice pass by Reihana to put Rush in
7-0
