@Dan54 said in Taranaki v Manawatu:
End of Naki storm week and we getting a bit beat up on injury front, hance no team been named as yet.
I'm not a fan of storm week because it creates unbalanced matches. Injuries happen, but they are more likely to compound during this week. Meanwhile the opposition has a regular week vs a team with two quick turnarounds
The team being named late is standard though. It seems the teams that played midweek both name their sides for Sunday on Friday. So this week the two that haven't named sides yet are Taranaki & North Harbour

I wish NZ did more to keep Armstrong-Ravula, he’s a classy operator for his age, calm, composed and looks to have all the tricks in the book.

Vijoen’s passing is a thing of beauty. Love when a halfback doesn’t piss around.
