@Bones said in Auckland v Wellington:
That looks like offside to me. Ball bounced off Lauaki and PUJ picked it up again.
It didn’t look right did it. I expected the ref to blow his whistle.
-
JGB back to his usuals ways.
-
That is shithouse from Karifi and Lakai.
-
Jeez that tackle attempt from Garden Bachop was horrible.

I think you mean Garden-Bachop and Kirifi.

Nah. The loosies need to take some ownership of that area. JGP should not be ledlft to his own to manage a no8 taking it from rhe back.

Hes been poor so far thsi half
-
@SouthernMann seeing that again that was Kirifi’s fault. That was his man.
What was he even doing? Just stood up and looked around. Ioane ran right by him.

Kirifi had the initial job and Lakai's role was to follow and wrap the man. There is no way a no8 should be able ro wander past an openside and no8 off the back.
-
@SouthernMann nah Lakai couldn’t do much there. The damage was already done because Kirifi didn’t do his job.
-
Jeez good tackle by Lakai on Lam. Auckland were away there.
-
@Canes4life in the right situation Kirifi makes the initial hit and Lakai wraps over the top after that impact. It was a defensive process for the loosies. Shouldn't expext that from a team coached by an openside flanker.
-
@SouthernMann yeah but Kirifi didn’t make the original hit so your point is moot.
You’re reading too much into anyway. How many tackles have we made and how many attacking raids have we stopped? It was a rare mistake by Kirifi and it cost us.
Overall Kirifi and Lakai have outplayed their opposites.

Game starting to open up.
-
I’m liking Preston. Hope he picks up that third Canes contract.

They have had strong games in the open. It shouldn't mask that there is a procedural issue defending 5m scrums though.

Higgins looking deadly at 12. Great signs.
