    Spoke to the Waikato media manager yesterday,they are only expecting between 3-4,000 people to the game because it’s the long weekend,given they had a similar crowd there last weekend for a shield defence, it’s bloody embarrassing..!.good opportunity for the Taniwha supporters to make their presence felt.

    The first 2 minutes were all us, the next 12 all Waikato.

    7-7

    Again an extremely poor exit play put us under pressure which Waikato turned into points.

    Oh wow, a quick tap penalty from inside our own 22 ends with a try to Gregory in the corner.

    7-14

    @higgins @Stargazer the last pass may have been forward, but we’ll take it.

    Poor defence, professional foul under the sticks earns Nock a yellow card.

    Fuck this will be a game changing 10 minutes. If Waikato don’t level the scores or take the lead I’ll be very surprised

    I am staggered that you guys managed to get raped by the DSW a coupe of weeks back. Things looking reasonably promising for a Championship final in Napier next weekend so please don't you blow it from here Northland, although now at 14 - 21 things are looking a bit more dicey than I would like.

    You’re dreaming, this is Northland, we can blow a 14 point lead quicker than anyone in the business.

    What did I tell you. Our defence the second half of this season has been nothing short of a disgrace.

    28-21

    Hope you had a good 10 minute break Nock, you’ve got a game to go and fucking win back now. In fact leave him off, get Kitto on.

    That yellow has cost Northland 3 Waikato tries.

    I wish I could say I didn’t see it coming.

    Fuck we’re done, the backs just shovelling the ball along the backline and Waikato pick off an easy intercept.

    Waikato have scored 31 points in the last 23 minutes.

    What is it with us and conceding big points very quickly? Is it a mental thing and switching off? Fitness? What ever it is, it’s shithouse.

    Fuck being a Northland supporter has to be one of the toughest gigs there is. Consistently disappointed.

    Hmm, now Waikato gets a yellow for the same offence. Can Northland come back?

    The commentators have no clue. It doesn't matter whether the ball lands behind the player.

    We have some younguns who are brilliant and terrible every week. Once they get a bit more experience they could become unbeatable. Disappointing finish but it started out Much better than we dared to hope for.

    Sweeney about Reece: "He's been through tough times and we all stand behind him". Shit really?
