v Manawatu

Look at that bench! That could be the difference between the two sides I reckon.
Seems to be a wee bit of rotation going on here (Ranger, Douglas)?? Strong lineup nonetheless. Obviously Tua, Waa and Matich are still not right, I wonder if we'll see them during the week back at home.
Get up boys, let's get all ruthless again!!
-
@taniwharugby I think with the form our back three are showing Wright maybe struggling to get a place this week. Could be wrong, but that's what it looks like.

@taniwharugby Hyland has been bloody impressive, he's nailed that 14 jersey in my opinion..

Handy looking side!
-
@j77 The pleasing thing this year has been that regardless of who plays their has been no drop in standards. We have been physical and fit. The Poo are a combative side and we will need to be on our game. This team has the ability and the heart to go all the way if we don't get ahead of ourselves and turnup. No Canterbury vs Wellington for us. Come on guys
-
@kev that's the key, not to get too far ahead of ourselves. From what I'm seeing this year the mindset is very levelheaded, so I reckon the guys will be on point and ready to meet fire with fire. The poo love playing at home and are always tough there, but I think we have the goods to top them. They're just 15 blokes in puke green shirts, no big deal!

A bit of good news just before kickoff,Tim Bond likely to be available for either the Otago game or the Counties Manukau game...a little nervous about this game,been a while since we have got past the Turbos..sure we can do it if we play at the same as the Harbour game.bench could be the difference,good start import
-
Ref bottled his call for that try...he Clearly saw it and called advantage decided it was over....
We need to get some points soon
-
Has to be forward
-
@taniwharugby at least a metre
-
Some untidy shit still...we making most of the play but making erros
-
Injury already....
-
Tit for tat....so frustrating being the team to give up a restart like that
-
Very off side at the break down there
