Tasman vs Canterbury - semifinal
-
Well there you go. Canterbury always find a way.
-
@stargazer Will Jordan got sold down the river to be fair when Alaimalo rushed in for no reason.
-
@african-monkey They're like a rash that keeps coming back.
-
@stargazer You got that right haha.
-
Good game from both Ta$man locks, David Havili, Blackadder. But Bridge owned Jordan, Drummond outplayed Christie and Romano played like a boss.
Ta$man should have put more points on the board during the first half when they dominated possession and territory, but bad passing and handling errors let them down, not to mention those two yellow cards in the second half.
Canterbury hasn't been as good as previous seasons by a long shot, but the experience of players like Drummond, Romano & a few others made the difference.
-
Big upset.
Not another final....
-
First leg of the multi comes in
-
@stargazer Whitelock coming back was huge as well. He improves their defence massively when he's there.
-
Jordan undone by the new law...oh well both he and Alaimalo should take the learnings away from this
-
Sit down little brother sit down. Brett Cameron outplayed hunt too. Didn’t even see him on the field. Whitelock , Drummond and romano were huge tonight.

I am cringing at this result. This Canterbury team is not that good. The forwards are good enough compared to past teams, but the backs are poor.
While some are on the Bridge bandwagon I am far from sold on him. He remains inconsistent under the high ball and while he can be an elusive runner he is lacking the polish to finish things off.
Ennor looks a good athlete, but I don't think centre is his best position at the moment. He lacks the linking/decision making game the good centres have.
The wings are uninspiring, there is dross at 2nd five and Cameron is passable at Mitre 10, but I would hate to rely on him at a higher level.
Hopefully next year I can get excited about the team.
