Auckland got very sloppy when it looked like they would run away with it. Very good defence in the last ten minutes though
Yeah, was it 24 to 12 ? Looked they thought it was won.
Good direct play from Northland, but poor from Auckland. Will take the win

That is a bull shit decision. Disgraceful. FFS. Takes him high in the act of scoring.
Ref called it - not foul play as tackler so low - and they ref it differnetly on the goal line (rightly or wrongly).
Great finish by Northland! Auckland look amazing at times, and then just fade mentally.

Sums us up too, but am pleased we put up a fight in the 2nd half for a change, epsecially when it looked like we had checked out and Auckland were upping the tempo.

But if he tackles legally ( below the shoulders ) Reihana scores.
Whereas Latu gens 10 when player drops to bump him off. Which I don’t disagree with.

@kev northland will probably get an apology later in the week from the officials like usual
Could I interest you in a justice armband?

@kev the high tackle stuff is BS, I hate cards, no way that is anything more than a penalty, purely for the head contact.
Dare I say we looked sharper when Nock came on, I'd be tempted to give Nichols a run at 12 and Salmon a start.
