Auckland v Southland

Kirwan

Tele’a looked alright on the wing in that play

Angry runner.

Kirwan

We are doing well to be so far ahead with this ref only looking one way. Southland players are not rolling away.

Duluth

Good try Southland. Off the back of a classy 50/22

Kirwan

That winger is RAPID

Second time I’ve seen Sullivan bring held to the ground after play has moved on.

Kirwan

Our halfbacks box kicks are dwarf sized.

Duluth

Our halfbacks box kicks are dwarf sized.

His pass is inconsistent too. The coaches don’t trust the next halfback so he subs off very late

The Funaki injury has had a big impact

Kirwan

Just kills the backline flow

Duluth

Auckland having a nap. It’s happened every match

Dice

Frustrating watching our halfback take 3 business days to clear the ball.

Duluth

New halfbacks pass looks decent. Start him next game

That new 9 needs more minutes - for his excellent hair if nothing else.

It's much more palatable watching this Auckland team now they are giving young players with a future a chance.

Also - Lam really does suit 12. If AB selectors had any brains he would be playing in Wellington next weekend

Duluth

Michael Manson could be useful pick for the Highlanders.
