Wellington v Southland
-
-
@Duluth they've got Dominic Ropeti starting over Brad Shields on the Wellington Lions socials so this may be a mis-print.
-
This was from the NPC site.. it’s more likely to be wrong than Wellington. Or it was an earlier version of the team
I've corrected the original post

Wellington have no choice really but to mix it up a bit, given we'll need to be at our best against Ta$man on Wednesday.
There should be more than enough there to do the job, and the bench has enough in reserve if it's needed.
Should be a good one, will be heading along.

thats tough! 2 shield challenges in a week, still a strong team i guess, Dom Ropeti did well when he came on, great season for the mighty O and also good to see big Teofilo Paulo! had a good season for HOBM a recall to the Manu?

Just drove past Hutt Rec. It'll be muddy.
-
Go the Stags.
Just giving away meters too easily - and Lions to good a team to be giving that too.
Scrum looking good and Jack Taylor playing well.
-
Game went much as predicted...... Stags just toothless on attack and too passive on D.....
Well done Lions.
-
@Mattasaurus plenty of firepower to come back in for the Lions. I understand Julian Savea isn’t far away.

Our backup props aren't good enough though. Scrum was awful at times. As it was last week when Sheck and Orr were on. I'm not an expert but Orr might not be good enough. Numia might have to last the whole game as he did last year as the backup was rubbish.
Clarke and Preston went well. Love I hope they persevere with at 1st as Morgan is not good enough. As he showed when he replaced Love. But Love didn't set the house on fire.
