Tasman v Manawatu

[Steven Harris]

@KiwiMurph same guy who thought Benji Marshall would be great rugby player..!

[Stargazer]

Great try from Taufua after an even greater pass from Squire.

[Stargazer]

19 - 3 to Ta$man. To think how many opportunities Ta$man have missed thus far ... it could have been way worse.

@Stargazer said in Ta$man v Manawatu:

Great try from Taufua after an even greater pass from Squire.

Throwing around the term great rather liberally.

[Steven Harris]

@Stargazer looking like a training run for Ta$man

[Stargazer]

@Steven-Harris I'm starting to wonder whether Southland might get over Manawatu this season.

[Stargazer]

I think Tima Fainga'anuku isn't as good as his younger brother Leicester, but he's been really good in this game.

[Stargazer]

This is going to be massacre. Spowart scoring now.

[Stargazer]

Oops, Tony Johnson is right. Jordan was offside. It shouldn't have been a try.

[Stargazer]

HT: Ta$man 33 - 3 Manawatu

[Yeetyaah]

Ta$man insane. Always back my Waikato boys but Ta$man will be hard to beat for any team.

[Steven Harris]

Parkinson should have been yellow carded..when your battling,all you need is poor officiating

[Stargazer]

Tony Johnson very keen on giving Booth some Duane Monkley medal points. He's nuts. KT and KH too polite to object.

[Stargazer]

This is really getting silly. 62 - 3.

[Stargazer]

Lucky conversion via the post for O'Malley. 64 - 3.

[Bovidae]

TJ won't be able to contain himself.

[Stargazer]

TJ's reason for giving Booth 2 points was "he tried so hard". Seriously, if your team loses 3 - 64, your players don't deserve any points. Trying isn't good enough.

@Stargazer it’s funny as you will very well know when the magpies were struggling a few seasons back...
It’s bad enough when your not playing well, but it seems when everything is going against you..even the officiating calls go against you..not a Turbos supporter by any stretch, but I do feel them ...this won’t be the last team Ta$man will put plenty on.

[taniwharugby]

@Steven-Harris that's what I'm afraid of 😬

[Stargazer]

@Steven-Harris What's funny? I'm not gloating about any team's demise. It's hard for any team when they're struggling like Southland the last couple of years, Manawatu this year, and the Magpies, BOP and Northland for several years as well. But there are regional rivalries, which make me feel a bit less sorry for some teams than for others.
