Auckland vs. North Harbour - The Battle of the Bridge
-
All that last period of play that let Harbour back in was from a chip and chase play from Ruru..50/50 play in my book..and then finished up with a 3 x penalties..
-
We're far better than these guys but we keep letting them in it with poor discipline which has been a problem all year.
-
To me that’s advantage,player had an opportunity to pass..
-
Really good opening 8m for Abel and Ruru
-
People aren't actually serious about Bryn Hall being an AB contender right?
-
@sparky Gareth Evans should be picked ahead of these two. I don't know what everyone sees in Dillon Hunt, good player but doesn't exactly set the house on fire. I really like Dalton, but probably a bit young at this stage.
-
Faiane should have pinned his ears back,even he got tackled,Trainor was right on shoulder
-
@canes4life why should Evans be picked ahead of a specialist 7?
-
@canes4life I like Evans too but I'd pick Papali'i no bias intended. He's a star and is only gonna get better. Having said that, I wouldn't be upset if Evans got a cap somewhere. He's a solid operator.
-
at a collapsed maul, how long does the ref have to give for the team to clear it?
SOme refs give them a few seconds, some, as soon as it collapses, they blow it up regardless if the 9 is digging for it.
-
-
They probably need two, and I’d be tempted to take Evans as a potential bench option. Can do the Ardie role covering 7/8 if required (although Papalii gets the bench spot in my team).
-
@kiwimurph No workrate though......
-
@kiwimurph yep, a specialist 7 is the one they are looking to replace, why replace him with a utility?
