NPC - news, injuries etc

[Yeetyaah]

Went to the game. Taranaki were good in the first half. Boshier was good. Naholo was good. The fullback was good. Sowakula was good. Auckland were really good in the second half. Rayasi was great. Plummer was good in the second half. A few unknowns for me but Auckland were far better on the day.

[Yeetyaah]

Also, Taranaki gave away far too many penalties.

@Yeetyaah How did O'Neill look after such a long time away with injury? Thinking about Chiefs selection here.

[Yeetyaah]

@Bovidae Scrum from Taranaki was good but didn't notice him on the field too much.

@Stargazer lol then they put 'not a' in white writing that hides itself in the shield on the graphic. So looks like it is a challenge!
