Yep well done Wellington, they've been good today.
We'll see a whole different Auckland team on paper next week. Will be interesting to see.

Two Napier Boys' products coming on at the same time. Thompson and Sullivan.
Not the best option from Sullivan!

Lions showing much more urgency despite knowing they have the game at hand

Sotutu and A Ioane both had shit games. Choat the best Auckland forward.
Akira got a sprig in the eye early, suspect that why he got replaced.
Yeah how unlucky was that! Falls over just as his teammates leg was coming down right there.

Wow, would not have picked that final score line..you just sence Auckland were always playing catch up..it’s staggering to think Auckland had the dominant scrum, but it will be Wellington’s loose forwards , Ardie and DuPlessis especially that will be takeaway in this game..a couple of really key moments,Fifita sacking the maul and Soututu with the quick tap, game was still very much alive in those 2 occasions ..
TJ and JGB ran the cutter and Afaso Amua was like the energiser bunny in the loose ..Thought Choat and Clark were Aucklands best...and Plummer tried his best.. -
Commiserations to Auckland. You have a great young team, but they'll need to defend better than that.
Great news to wake up to. I'm going to have a smile on my face all day. Congratulations to the players and everyone connected to Wellington Rugby.
