The Bay v Northland

@ARHS said in The Bay v Northland:
@bayimports Seems risky by the Steamers. Northland far stronger on paper now. I have taken the day off to go - and am now regretting it.
Have no fear. Us Northlanders know our team well, if any side can trip up to your 2nd XV it’s us.. trust me.
-
I'm not betting against my own team but 2.90 H2H for Northland is outrageous given those teams named
-
OMG... so THE Bay have handed us a lifeline by selecting a virtual B Team. God bless you lads. Best Northland side we have put up for a few weeks too. Didn't give us a hope until I saw the two teams named just now.
Still, the wheels have fallen off the Taniwha wagon big time since that Auckland win. Just hope they fire tomorrow and give themselves a shot at making the quarters.
One thing's for sure... if we manage to win this and then somehow sneak into the finals, the Steamers will be off Ta$man's (or maybe Auckland's) Christmas card list this year.

Everyone will be hoping we don't finish top to avoid a potential home semi-final at Tga Domain not being able to be played at night.
?
No floodlights and Rotorua is out of action.

Especially an all black laden team! 1 ab is infinity times more than 0

as someone who has followed BOP rugby since i was old enough to know what it was
i never assume we are favourites for anything until 15 minutes after the final whistle.

@fidz71 Always hard to decide which Bay team to hate more!
Easy, Hawkes Bay then Ta$man, thats near a bay isnt it
@mariner4life we are never favorites, except in the hearts of fans, but then our brains usually slap us back to reality!

Hey! And to think I was going to support you guys this week.
-
@Nepia only cos you hate the other 2 teams we are playing as well as us!

@taniwharugby "Don't hate me because I'm beautiful!"

Bop backs skills are awful
Not working from home today, so have not seen any footage, but it sounds like our B team is getting dominated as we feared
-
@bayimports Moorby is a class above but our wingers have both been very shaky. Passing to a player in a better position seems optional. Hetet MSR Kapeli and Lasaqa all going well though and keeping bop in the game. Caird and Matich look useful for Northland.

We can blame my hatred of Northland on my decision to go to Waikato Uni and Steve Walsh Jnr. I mean, I don't mind you hating us, but choosing Bay of Plenty over us, that's unforgivable.
