Manawatū v Taranaki

[antipodean]

Manawatu should be relegated.

[Steven Harris]

Wilde tackled without the ball ,but I guess when your struggling nothing goes your way

[Steven Harris]

Awesome set play Turbos

[Stargazer]

Hey Taranaki, don't stuff up my tipping!

[Steven Harris]

Absolutely cynical from Naki ,should have been a YC

[Stargazer]

Manawatū have improved a lot in the second half, but I think Taranaki playing its third game of stormweek also plays a big role.

[Steven Harris]

How are Taranaki not offside in the inside channels..?,no way were their defensive line behind the hindmost

[Stargazer]

Another player from the 2019 Hastings Boys' Top 4 champions team making his NPC debut: Julian Goerke.

[Steven Harris]

Terrell Peita looking really good ,heading back to Northland next year
On Loan from Auckland

[Stargazer]

That was close.

[Runt]

Game of two halves, Taranaki just getting through another 40 minutes for the 2nd half.
Funny hearing the commentators talking up how awesome the Manawatu lineout had got going, be a bit disappointing if they didn’t with no locks and 3 hookers on the field for Taranaki!

@Steven-Harris One of Auckland's best last year, unlucky not to be starting at six or eight this year.

@Tim hes my wife’s Whānau , really good bloke during the pandemic he volunteered his time down at the Henderson drive through when initial swabs for COVID were being done , intelligent thinker when it comes to rugby.
