It's a shame that Tiatia didn't react to all the Hawke's fan criticism and return to Tauranga in the right colours...
Yes, Tiatia, I've always rated him, he's diamonds that boy.

Congrats HB nice win

You guys are cramming a lot of chips on those shoulders.
The moral police have been off the charts this week.
TBH, I think we won because of it, the team had a bunker mentality.

Excellent game from Thompson, Rakete-Stones and Flanders. Definitely a game won by our forwards. According to the radio commentators McClutchie played with a minor injury; maybe that affected his kicking a bit, but otherwise he had a good game.
For of Plenty, Selby-Rickit was outstanding and - as always - Carter was a handful. Of Plenty have a bigger drop-off when the subs are made than we have. That definitely contributed to our win, too.

BOP weren't in the game in the 2nd half.
Now Wellington will have a chip on their shoulders.
It'll be a chip off. I hope Jamie Wall and that Stuff journalist keep up with their hysterical commenting this week to further the Magpies bunker mentality.
I mean, we have little chance against the mighty
HurricaneLions but I hope we give it a good try. -
Argh waking up to this … crap. Don’t think we have lost a home game to HB in since about 2013, so that’s a bummer.
Well done HB last week was either going to break or unite you. Clearly galvanised in this case
-
@Bovidae I think any team who has a chance to smack that sorry state of a province they call HB will go into it with a chip on their shoulders.
No wonder their players don’t get picked up by the Canes, clear atttitude problems and no accountability.
I think everyone outside of HB will be wanting the Lions to maul them in the semi. 😁
They just got lucky we got complacent last week.

Did you not know that the "Real Bay" title is only up for grabs in round-robin games? Just like that Shield you broke last week. I don't make the rules, I just apply them - sorry Hawke's

Well this is the least surprising post of the day.

That Selby-Rickit trick at the ruck has bagged him a lot of metres/tries this season. One foot behind the ball is onside apparently so he waits until the defence fans then marches up the middle.
I thought the law was you couldn't handle the ball if you were part of the ruck? Did that change, or was I always wrong to think that, or were we playing under Of Plenty suburban ground home laws?

I don't know the answer to that - but I am assuming the refs know the laws - big assumption?

@Canes4life one thing you cant deny is the heart the Magpies have in their squad ,down against the Lions last week they crawled their way back , and to come back from 16 points down playing away and then lay on 26 unanswered points is impressive in anybodys book.
Should be a great contest next week -
@Steven-Harris yeah in all seriousness it should be. I’m sure the Lions won’t want to be done on home turf by the same team in three weeks. A few guys looked pretty sore so it will be interesting to see who makes the team next week.
-
@Canes4life I just hope a bigger crowd turns up for the SF.
