Southland v Auckland

[KiwiMurph]

RTS does some good things at fullback but he still looks like a league player playing rugby

Tucks and runs an awful lot and he only offloads only after running himself.

[KiwiMurph]

Nicely done Kalani Thomas - he'd be my starting 9 for the Blues every day of the week

[frugby]

@KiwiMurph Contracted to the Reds unfortunately for you!

[KiwiMurph]

@frugby Yep. He should be starting Super Rugby not sitting on the bench behind Tate.

[frugby]

@KiwiMurph No doubt, some good 9s rolling about across NZ and Australia to be fair.

[KiwiMurph]

@frugby True. A team like the Rebels could really use him too - pairing him with Carter Gordon would be ideal.

[KiwiMurph]

Finally RTS passes the ball. Nice try.

[KiwiMurph]

Bonus point up for Auckland.

24-6 with 44 mins gone.

@frugby said in Southland v Auckland:

@KiwiMurph Contracted to the Reds unfortunately for you!

Yes, and what's worse, he re-signed with them for two more years!

[KiwiMurph]

After a lovely Kalani Thomas break Auckland eventually score from multiple ensuing scrums.

31-6

@Stargazer Connor Mcleod an ex Hawkes Bay boy..?

[KiwiMurph]

Nice try to Southland - been impressed by Manson this year

31-13

[Steven Harris]

@KiwiMurph looks pretty rapid, would love to see him in open space.

[Stargazer]

@Steven-Harris Yes, he must be loaned to Southland, because he was in the 2023 Magpies squad.

[KiwiMurph]

Still hoping Highlanders sign Connor Mcleod for obvious reasons

[Chris]

@KiwiMurph

The won’t they have 3 contracted HBs.

[KiwiMurph]

@Chris I live in eternal hope.

[Steven Harris]

Got to say , theres night and day between Choat and Gibson , Choat is accurate in everything he does ,Gibson is full of energy but achieves nothing..
Behree getting better with each outing

[KiwiMurph]

Vikena playing well this season - unfortunately the other hookers in the squad are absolute journeymen. Wasted opportunity to have another young hooker in the squad.

[Steven Harris]

@KiwiMurph dont get me started, totally agree
