Manawatu vs Tasman

Hmm, don't think that should be a YC. It wasn't an arm swing. Just a normal movement you make when trying to keep your balance in the air. Not so sure it was his elbow either. Under the Rules, the ref had the choice between a penalty and a card. He chose the card.

Ta$man really miss Banks and Havilli - a lot of youth in that backline and it shows - way too many errors. Hunt not the greatest couple of weeks.
Turbos pack has some graft about it and Otere lead the team around really well - exciting for Blues fans.

Not a good week for a lot of Premiership sides (Auckland included).

Yeah - I think our season goal might be trying to avoid relegation. The starting XV that we expected to have: i.e. including Havili and Hames, but not Squire; is very strong - but, things are very thin and green below.
At the end, when Paulo and (I think) Ainley went off and Taufua was in the bin, we might only have had about a hundred NPC caps on the field and most of them belonging to Guyton and Fredericks.
On the plus side, Jordan is going to be an excellent acquisition. He looked significantly bigger out there than I thought he was - already got a fair bit of Ben Smith about him. Some refinement to do, but he's going to have the goods.
