From what I've read Wellington are expecting a similar plan as to what we had last week. Here's hoping we've got a few extra tricks up our sleeve to surprise them with.
They are fully expecting the usual rigour at scrums and breakdowns, so they'll be a bit sharper in that department I'm guessing. I'm hoping we move the ball quickly from set piece and rucks and employ a smart kicking game to keep them turning around.. That way we can apply some real pressure..

@j77 hopefully we don't have the same lineout meltdown as last week, as that was very costly in field position and confidence at an important period of the game.
Our lineout has been wobbly, been very good but also very bad.
-
Errors early on
-
Surprised they let Alaimalo away with giving Savea a push.
TMO...out?
-
Haha , Hyland with another dodgy try v Wellington
-
Good start by Kara
-
Nice try there.
-
Bad read by Renata to make that try for Northland.
-
Not wrapping he fell over didn't he?
-
Haha not really
-
Was slow on not giving Josh that t/o compared to how quick he gave Goosen
-
