Auckland vs Canterbury
-
If Sam Prattley gets a Blues contract....
-
And an Aucklander scores....for Canterbury
-
Hickey throws it a meter forward and Auckland scores
-
Beautiful try Auckland set up by Akira Ioane.
-
This is like the Canterbury cheer squad on commentating...cripes.
-
Prattley again...
-
Auckland had that card coming. Nee Nee takes one for the team.
-
Does this Canterbury team have anything but a rolling maul?
-
It turns out they do - just run at Jono Hickey - good plan that - dude is a turnstyle. Canterbury try.

Hickey tackles like a wicket keeper
-
Shocking non-penalty call there. Even Marshall spotted it.
-
Even TJ spotted the next one.
-
Yep Auckland not much hope when Canterbury are getting the rub of the green.
I hope GPT is one of the ones off contract - he can fuck off.
-
@kiwimurph Awful throwing this year.
-
Nice work Prattley.
-
Wondered why Marshall was twittering on about a broken arm...
-
If Enari had a chance to be selected for the Maori ABs, then he can forget about that now. Always awful seeing a player going off like that.
-
Has anyone seen a replay of the big cleanout (Prattley?). Lucky to stay on the field?
-
@stargazer Freak accident too. Poor bastard.
-
@stargazer On the other hand, Canterbury very lucky not to be carded for a professional foul there.
-
Second half will be interesting. Canterbury have their first choice frontrow waiting on the bench.
-
Very impressed by Plummer. For one year out of school he looks really really good.
Nice to see Auckland showing some ticker.
-
@kiwimurph Love how he isn't afraid to take the line on. Playing like a tough St Peter's boy.
We'll probably go on to lose but at least they're having a go unlike most of our performances this season.
-
@african-monkey He also seems like a good decision maker - and that is helping the backline a lot.
-
He'll need to increase his punt distance, and work on moving straight ahead when passing (he turns his body a lot at times). Very good composure so far for a 19 yo.

"Nice"?
That's an extremely tame adjective for you.
I would have almost expected, "The awesomely destructive Prattley decimates a Canterbury scrum".
But, it's Prattley.
However, having decided he's a scud missile, Prattley puts himself on full launch mode. That clean out bears some looking at.

That's an extremely tame adjective for you.I've been up very late on conference calls this week - I just don't have my usual energy!
-
Yeah, Ireland are welcome to have Jager back.
-
Nice boot from Plummer.
-
Another error from GPT - he is garbage. Another Aucklander on the field for Canterbury
-
Akira goes beast mode for a turnover.
-
Prattley really woke up after those scrum penalties.
-
Hahaha Hickey woeful again.
-
This ref is woeful. Counter ruck is fine means you can go in from the side now (Sanders).
-
It’s been lucky for a few players that this ref doesn’t like referring anything to the TMO...
-
Woeful effort in defence from the Canterbury fullback there.
Auckland back in the lead.
-
McKay is very, very lucky. This ref is pretty dreadful.
-
McKay must've felt guilty.
-
The Auckland tryscorer moved up very quickly there, way before the ball had passed over the end of the lineout.
