Auckland v Wellington

[nzzp]

unbelievable. That sums up our day nicely - dominant in some areas, but asleep on defence.

[Tim]

Shit defence.

[Kirwan]

Coaches are going to tear them a new arsehole.

[Bones]

Panic defence. A break is made and eeeeveryone runs in and out of position.

[KiwiMurph]

Remember when the defence was the backbone of the Auckland team 2 years ago.

Seems a long time ago now.

[African Monkey]

That was a disgraceful half. Reminds me of the efforts of 2016-2017.

[African Monkey]

@KiwiMurph Defence? What's that?

[Kirwan]

Be interesting to see if the coaches can get the team to adjust. Wellington are playing great.

[Tim]

Conceding 5 tries in a half. Come on.

I don't think it'll take much. Step foot in wellys half with the ball and they'll happily give you a penalty.

defensively yes, but our forwards were good as long as nothing involved a ruck or tackle.

I cannot believe we shipped 5 tries in a half. THat's just nuts.

@Tim I was absolutely staggered with Wes Goosens try with the cross kick..The cross kick is JGB’s MO..to not have someone defending a free winger is like leaving your front door open in West Auckland ..Gonna take a massive and consistent effort to turn this around , not enough head and feeds at scrum time to assert the dominance that you can see is there,,TJ running the cutter..

[Kirwan]

Bones is Nostradamus

[African Monkey]

Oh dear, a Wellington scrum.

[Kirwan]

Another good turnover from Choat

Agree. But Aso has to be better when being tackled.

[Kirwan]

Haha, TJ losing his shit. What a fuckwit
