Southland v Auckland

Duluth

I think that’s the same xv as the opening match. Abel the only change in the 23

@Duluth that's last Sundays team👍 they've made a few changes for the Auckland game

Was hoping to see Sam Wye again.

When's Tangitau available? I think he'd be good at this level. I'd chuck him on Aoake's wing when he's available.

It's been a good 24hrs with Otago and the All Blacks winning😀 now it's up to the Stags to complete the trifecta

Grooter

Take the 3 boys

Duluth

Aucklands rush defence is still a work in progress. Good chance we see it at the Blues next year with McGrath involved in both teams.

Good to see some variety in tactics. Most NZ sides play exactly the same

@Duluth Not sure how Gregory was able to go for the turnover there ...

It doesn’t feel like it but the missed tackles are 9-1 against Southland

African Monkey

Quite impressed with Southland so far. Looking organized in defence with Banks steering them around the field nicely so far.

African Monkey

@Duluth Hah really? Certainly no glaring misses.

Duluth

Yeah I think it’s lots of stepping the first man but being tackled by the second. Not many metres gained from them

Grooter

not the Aussie! 😔

Grooter

Come on Stags.. De Groot is watching you all the way from SA
