Wellington vs Tasman (RS)
-
@Stargazer If you don't laugh you'll cry. These guys are permanently injured. I obviously feel sorry for them, but after a while the situation becomes funny.
Otago had three players go off injured in 50 minutes, and the only thing I could think was we haven't even lost TUJ yet!

@Canes4life said in Wellington vs Ta$man (RS):
@Stargazer agreed, I would have preferred Preston and Love.
The reserve prop in Cameron Orr is a weakness aswell, his scrummaging has been poor.
Getting D Bird and B Shields back will provide much needed experience.
Its good to see Bird back. And the other players who were rested at the WE
Orr looks just about useless. Morgan isn't much good but Love really didn't put his hand up to say pick me at first. But I hope Ellison gives Love another game at 1st vs Canterbury. With Preston to start again

I must admit to being a bit surprised when Lions oicked uo Orr, and he hasn't done much to chnge my mind as yet.

as much as I dont want Ta$man to win the Shield, pretty sure for us to have any chance at a shot this season, Ta$man must win it, but then also lose it to NH, who in turn lose it to Otago haha
-
@taniwharugby and then lose it a week later
-
@bayimports mate, given I was 4 the last time we held it, I'll take that!!
Actually, I can see another path for a challenge, but looks tougher...
-
@taniwharugby yeah we don't have a great history of winning them either ha ha. Winning lotto probably has better odds than the other way of you getting a challenge!
-
Man we're playing like trash 9 and 10 gna lose us the game ffs

Aidan Morgan is an actual robot 🤦🏽♂️

What does NZ rugby think they are achieving by holding NPC matches at stadiums like Sky Stadium or Eden Park. Honestly, it's just ludicrous. There were more people at the Four Square I popped into on my way home from work than are at the stadium watching this game.
-
@1kiwi isnt there requirements for the facilities around lighting for sky, and less of an issue at NPC is the ground facilities for players.
-
@taniwharugby Good point. The lighting requirement might rule out the Hutt Rec (not sure).
