v Counties-Manukau

[taniwharugby]

Damn, Mitre 10 preview has us edging this one...

TAB has them solid faves though

[taniwharugby]

Poor defending but looks like 2 forward passes there

[kev]

Forward pass. Come on.

[taniwharugby]

Looks like Macilai ain't out there, injured in warm up?

[taniwharugby]

Kara don't look good

[taniwharugby]

Back to back line out losses...

[taniwharugby]

And another....fark

[taniwharugby]

Noooo

[taniwharugby]

Draw and pass was the right option, just needed to be forward a bit more and still Solomon shoulda caught it

[taniwharugby]

Not looking good at moment, still too many errors

[J77]

Jesus this is terrible. Matty Wright needs to lift his game.

[taniwharugby]

Average there, barely got to,the gain line through all those phases

[taniwharugby]

Nice work Ram

[taniwharugby]

Good aggressive d from CM against our passive attack

[taniwharugby]

Very average defence...I do hate how you can attempt to turn the ball over and drag the guy along the ground due to not releasing and not be awarded

[taniwharugby]

Isn't that a penalty? Or was there a deal?

[taniwharugby]

God our line out is a shambles today...it had been humming along ok last few weeks too

[taniwharugby]

We are playing average but ref is allowing a lot of players go off their feet and the odd shoulder without arms.

[taniwharugby]

Need a rocket now! Can't even blame that half on storM week.

Not making much with our ball and falling off a number of tackles too.

Positive is our continuity when we do have it, our scrum is solid.

[J77]

I'm surprised we are only behind by 6.

C-M way more tenacious, they're getting up in our faces and we just can't break through.

Nock and Ram are a two man band at the moment.

Our wide defence will get split open if we don't pull finger...
