North Harbour v Magpies
-
Goodness Nth Harbour have started like one of the Nth Korean missiles fired off in the last month or so, fast, powerful and with plenty of speed but not hitting their targets. We are lucky not to be two tries down already. And as I write that Harbour knock over a penalty to take the lead.

West not taking the Seta tactic of jumping into any ball you need to catch
-
Fuck that was a ruck - Treeby was offside
-
Unfortunately I am home sick - not even enough energy to yell at the tv
-
that PT was inevitable, the HB 9 shoulda been done the scrum before.

Going to the game probably will not do much for your recovery so just keep sticking the pins into that Philpott doll from the warmth and comfort of your lounge!

It could be a long night after seeing the way Harbour have dealt to my guys scrum on more than a couple of occasions.
-
That should be a penalty try and yellow card for high tackle on Dixon
-
We need someone to nobble Philpott so he can't give his usual inspirational speech at half time
-
Only delays the inevitable though with Dixon running powerfully from the restart and sets up C Vaeaga (the ogre for his knock on that cost Dixon his try moments before) for a try in the right hand corner Nth Harbour 13 - 17 Hawkes Bay after 28 minutes.
-
These Harbour players look well coached. Can we get Tom Coventry back?
-
Why were commentators saying it was Renton with the HIA when it clearly was Lamborn?
-
Much, much better performance from the Bay. It's a pity young Tim gave away that penalty, otherwise we'd have a draw, but can't really get upset by a mistake from an U19s player who's only had very few minutes in the Magpies jersey. Most of our boys played really well today, so - apart from the final score - I'm pretty happy about this game.
What's concerning is that, again, two players left the field injured. Lowe early in the game and Cridge late in the 2nd. Two of our best players this season.

@stargazer just got in from the game,much better performance,at least they stayed in the fight,
I really wish they had the conviction to have a crack and kick for the corner when harbour lost a player to the bin,I really think had they scored a try,that may have been the difference,Something really noticeable was that Geoff Cridge had an injury either to his shoulder or arm,and then stayed on for way longer than he should have..
Chatting to a few of the players at games end,at least their heads are still up.!Buckman was very good..
