Auckland v Northland

[Dice]

Ranger with another greedy moment. Why doesn't he ever look for support?

[Tim]

Ruru's scrappy game is going to be key in this game.

[antipodean]

Is Ranger supporting his own bodyweight there ref?

[taniwharugby]

god we make some rookie errors over and over

[Dice]

Just a nightmare half for us. We can barely put two phases together. Even one phase seems like a struggle.

[taniwharugby]

@Dice luckily we can barely string a phase together either

[J77]

We should be sniffing blood, instead we are still as retarded as ever

[taniwharugby]

JOne gets the speed wobbles

[antipodean]

How dumb are some of these Auckland players? Some baffling individual decisions, almost like they're new to the game.

[taniwharugby]

why are we keeping it so close

[taniwharugby]

need to take it a metre or 2 wider than these rucks

[antipodean]

Northland work out what an overlap is and score.

[Tim]

Fuck me what a horrible watch.

[taniwharugby]

made hard work of that!!

[Bovidae]

This is one of the most bizarre games I've watched. Northland is making tough work of it though.

thats how we roll!

At the ground. That might be the worst half of rugby I’ve seen. Most of the crowd has no idea what is happening with the subs/hooker

Northlands to lose from here. A man up and no scrum pressure

Surprised Auckland doesn’t have a sub practising lineout throws. 10mins of practise then sub on would be better than what’s happening

[Bovidae]

I'm glad Parsons mentioned Hickey at those scrums, given our discussion on what Sotutu did. He should have been penalised twice.

[taniwharugby]

I guess Golden Oldies and 1 man down changes alot of the game structure and Northland struggling to take advantage...as always far too many errors putting pressure on ourselves

Plan A is to not pass the ball to Tuiloma.
