@Duluth need a miracle now
The Crusaders 10 is on now..
thank god. I thought we might get some points with back to back penalties

Well done Bop ,final score flattered Auckland.

A bonus point
Should’ve won this game in the first 30mins. Auckland intensity disappears for long stretches so far this season. Attack looks good when they get a few phases
BOP forwards hung in there and then rolled over the top

I wonder when was the last time that Auckland,Canterbury ,Wellington & Ta$man lost on the same weekend..?

Great win! We did bloody well to be in it at half time including playing into the wind. Forwards did their work really well, although credit to Auckland for disrupting our line out for so long.
I was glad RTS, AJ Lam and Rayasi saw little ball in the second half as they all looked dangerous at every touch they had. Personally thought Pugh was the biggest pain in our but all day though.
We played with better structure in the second 40 and happy with the bench input especially from Broughton and TTT.
First win at Eden park since 2004, so stoked.

@bayimports unbelievable win ,after that first 15 minutes i thought it was gonna be a long day at the office for the Bay but they hung tough and to be fair won going away ..never seen so many upsets in one weekend of the NPC .

@Steven-Harris you're right, although we didn't score points during the yellow card about the 25 minute mark, that seemed to help take the pressure off, to help us get our heads back into this. Then it became a territory game for us, which we started to win.
Upsets galore, I haven't seen all matches this weekend, but I especially liked the Northland win. Again played a territory game in the shit conditions and let Wellington make the most errors, also forcing some on them through some ferocious forward defence.

@Dice After watching some of those silky touches from RTS, I hope he gets on the field at higher levels. He was creating holes and putting people through gaps at will today
