How bad was the Ref missed multiple Auckland knock ons and penalised Wellington off the paddock.
Big forward pass before the last Wellington try. Not sure how Wellington didn’t get a card given all those penalties
That’s NPC refereeing though. It is a step down

Excellent defense by Wellington
Preston was very impressive. Unsure why he wasn't starting last year and thought their might have been a reason but based on this just poor selecting by Ellison
Higgins was another impressive back. Savea was invisible until eh went off. JGB is a big improvemnet on Morgan but hasn't changed
Plummer stepped up compared to last year in the forwards. Hope he cna keep it up

Defence wins matches they say and you've gotta take your chances.

Yep.
Shit defence and no good execution (based on my first half viewing)
-
Wellington have Auckland, Taranaki and Canterbury to start so that win will take a bit of pressure off.

Say what now? You confusing him with Christie/Havili?
Not even the most criticised in this Wellington 23. J Savea and Apisai would be battling for that. Kirifi not far behind
