[taniwharugby]

[taniwharugby]

Short pen advantage for Manwatu there

[gt12]

What a fucking game!

[Machpants]

FFS

[gt12]

Iose in or is he?!

[Stargazer]

Forward pass?

[gt12]

That was forward but I don’t know if it is forward out of the hands

[Stargazer]

This deserves to be a try. Awesome passage of play.

[taniwharugby]

We didn't deserve to win that but that's a shit way to lose.

[Stargazer]

Not forward! Try stands.

[gt12]

As a neutral that’s all you can ask for on a Friday night. That was a neat game of footy.

[Chiefy07]

That is an absolutely awful decision

[Chiefy07]

His hands are angling forward, the ball went forward. That's ridiculous

[taniwharugby]

Was the absolute shit house play in the 1st half

[KiwiMurph]

Not enough to overturn. Right decision.

Cracking try.

[Chiefy07]

We should have closed that game well before then but sucks to lose on a bad decision in the last minute

[J77]

Forward or not.. we were fucking retarded in that first half, didn't deserve to win that. Well done Manawatu, enjoy.

[taniwharugby]

That was an awful display, poor discipline and far too inaccurate.

Shows last week up as norhing more than an anomaly.

That was fun to watch! You don't need everything to be all smooth etc for rugby to be good. Manawatu definitely get a drop in performance when reserves came on.
I have to admit even though it stuffed up my pick for the game, I still happy to see them get a win.

[J77]

Business as usual. Can't back up great performances, real school kid mindsets. We'll likely turn around and deal to Hawkes Bay now knowing us..
