Can Wyness pass in front of his own players?

Cripple fight between two uninspiring teams.

Definitely a fitting description for NMS in 2020.
-
Milner shudder (ah fuck it auto correct you're right this time) is entirely uninspiring. Just watched that break out try
-
Douglas is getting on my tits this year. He just walks into contact.
-
Good half by Williams,Fihaki,Ponini promising 19 year olds
-
@Chris Apart from dropping the ball on his way to the try line, Harmon has been outstanding.

He has point to prove maybe
Enari has a bulletin pass Pohipi as well he is on the Crusaders radar to replace Peanu or maybe Cameron as he also plays First Five
-
@Chris Bulletin pass? And who is also a first-five? Peanu?
-
-
Gee , really like the look of the Turbos number 8, Tyler Laubscher..sensational work rate
-
Callum Grace on
-
we need to play Burke every game fuck off Cameron
-
You know it’s not your year when even the bounce of the ball does not go your way ..got to feel for the Turbos..

No when when they are playing Canterbury
-
@Chris they normally do well against Canterbury..they were definitely a different team when they had Jackson Hemapo in the pack and Ngani Laumape on deck
-
@Chris Cameron is almost like the forgotten man

-

-
-
What a terrible commentary team.
-

Burke has been progressing nicely since the U20s; Cameron just doesn't seem to improve at all.
-
Some nice passes from Knewstubb in this game.

Yeah agree Burke is building nicely
Fihaki has very deceptive pass
-
shit, this is gonna be a big score, Manawatu will be lucky to get on the board.
Fihaki has some wheels

Can play FB too
-
Cruden should start he makes things happen
-
@Chris I was just about to say that , in the first half , all Manawatu were doing was running into contact , no variety in their plays ..at least Crudeness has bought something different

Yeah totally agree Cruden attacks the line they should start him he is more of a threat
-
Torrance-read goes well decent work rate ,
-
good to see some fight from the Turbos!
-
Prinsep gets bagged a lot but he gets through a lot of work
-
@Chris no question , they have got some good players ,one of the younger teams in the comp , the 6 and the 8 are both not long out of school .
