<p>Funny seeing Walter Little's kid running around. </p>

<p>Made me feel old, proper old. Seeing the kid of a top all black of my youth playing at rep level ... yeah.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Good start to the season though. Breakdown laws look better, but I have to read up on them</p> -

<p>Him and Matt Vaega looked impressive together in the midfield I thought. They look pretty good if they can stay injury free.</p>

<p>Probably Matt Vaega's best game. Little got better as he game went on.. his handling was a bit off early on</p>
<p> </p>
<p>An impressive combination given that their first choice would have been Ranger/Ahki</p> -
<p>As is Ranger too isn't he? He comes off contract with NH after this season too I think, having not suited up yet in 2 seasons.</p>
-
<p>Ranger is injured for the year too. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>NH didn't have the budget to replace Ranger or Ahki so they have a smaller squad than most</p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p>TR - do you think Ranger will head home next year? I suspect he will want to give something back to NH</p> -
<p>tough to comment on that given the reasons why he went to NH in the first place...</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Will just say his heart is in Northland.</p> -

<p>Yeah, I should have said funny seeing Walter's and To'o's kids running around.</p> -
<p>I thought Harbour looked a little bit better than Counties in this one. The stats seem to back that up too.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>If August Pulu played this game, I think Counties get the W. Judd was just really bad and held the team back(Vaka didn't help either). I would've brought on Taumateine a lot earlier.</p>

<p>Li is just all comedy these days.</p>

<p>TJ was doing his best Nisbo impersonation with how many times he got player names wrong.</p>
