Auckland v BOP

[ARHS]

@Duluth yes. Not the only game I have seen it allowed. Wonder if there is a new nuance around the rule. I hope not. It just seems so dangerous to me.

Vikena has massive potential but this is the worst game I’ve seen him play

Not just the lineouts but giving away that dumb penalty at the maul.

He was the definition of an impact sub - for the opposition.

Well done BOP and missed opportunity for Auckland at home. MSR was pretty good as was Ah Khoui & Trask.

RTS looked dangerous and he’s coming along well. I don’t doubt his ball carrying but nice to see some good short passing.

Rayasi really needs to break through in 2023. He just looks the goods and pace to burn.

Rayasi is about to turn 26 and had his breakthrough season in the 2018 NPC. For a winger he's running out of time.

That made me think of Shaun Stevenson, to see how old he is now. Lo and behold, they're cousins! Shaun is a year younger.
