Tasman v Manawatu

@Stargazer said in Ta$man v Manawatu:
Great try from Taufua after an even greater pass from Squire.
Throwing around the term great rather liberally.
-
@Stargazer looking like a training run for Ta$man
-
@Steven-Harris I'm starting to wonder whether Southland might get over Manawatu this season.
-
Parkinson should have been yellow carded..when your battling,all you need is poor officiating
-
@Stargazer it’s funny as you will very well know when the Shield Snorters 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. -
@Steven-Harris that's what I'm afraid of 😬
-
@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 Shield Snorters, 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.

@taniwharugby Me too!

@Stargazer hey I just wanted to make it clear , I don’t enjoy any of the regional teams getting trampled like this..,I was just lamenting when you are struggling it’s seems even catching breaks from officials goes against you..we should not be surprised by this result given what Ta$man have at their disposal..
Coms were not made to be offensive .. -

Yeah - and I wish he had been.
It's the same unnecessary foolishness that earned Dane Coles his yellow. Just because you've got hold of a little guy you don't need to absolutely smash him. Stupid footy!
Aside from that - Ta$man need some work on passing accuracy. A really clinical display would have been quite a bit worse for Manawatu!
