@Stargazer nothing is ever as bad as Palmerston north

I'm here right now.

Can confirm.

You've obviously never visited Brown Owl in Upper Hutt.

Only when on tinder. Hutt girls are friendly and easy.

smith not starting the only surprise for me

Aaron Smith played a huge number of minutes for the Highlanders, is 31 and is clearly the Half Back in NZ. I can understand the AB selectors trying to manage his workload.

Both Aaron Smith & TJP were outstanding in Super Rugby Aotearoa. Wouldn't be surprised to see TJP being pulled quite early for similar workload reasons.

TJP was hardly outstanding. If anything his passing game was even worse this year compared to previous years.

Always amazed me that Laurie Mains never picked Duane Monkley for the ABs in the early 1990s when he was perhaps the best player in the world at the time.

That's what we can't stand Mains in the Waikato.

He and Thorburn picked every average Otago and North Harbour player they could. John Leslie must have wondered how he wasn't selected.

I like the jersey colour allotment. In my mind the South are now England and the North are the AB's.

F-off , they picked Mitchell, which set him on his coaching path to the ABs. Hate them for that, not for not selecting Monkely who was good but not the nailed on god Waikato fans pretend he is.

@Nepia Liam fuckin' Barry?

I've said before that Mitchell was the least deserving of that loose forward trio to make the ABs.

Go Caleb!

[Toddy]

what a run to start. Great defence from ritchie too

[Yeetyaah]

McKenzie running straight and passing before he's tackled? Where was that all year.

[Yeetyaah]

Rieko!

[Tim]

Blistering start.

[Toddy]

Too easy! Good vision from BB and Rioane

[Kiwiwomble]

Beautiful try but What’s his problem, always looking for a fight

[Yeetyaah]

@Kiwiwomble classic Rieko

[Toddy]

Had to crack up when DMac had to make two good clean outs as the Norths forwards were waiting to run with the ball.

[booboo]

Good kick.

South chance at the lo
