Waikato vs Tasman
-
@Chris-B Ta$man will win this easily. Waikato can score points but leak them too (missing heaps of first-up tackles). Scrum is an issue with 3 LH props out injured. It would have been good to keep Coxon as he looks to be a spare part for Ta$man.

@Bovidae I certainly hope so. I'd hate to think that you would beat Ta$man and then lend credibility to that fucking shield by taking it.
I suspect Coxon is still out injured. Can't remember exactly what happened to him, but it looked pretty serious at the time. Otherwise, I think he'd be getting time ahead of Wyatt - building for the future.
Seems to be something about looseheads that attract injury. For us, Tim Perry's hardly played this year. Kane Hames is still out. Wyatt Crockett missed the first month. And Ryan Coxon.
Thank goodness for Sam "the Rock" Prattley, eh @Tim - always available if required!

Ta$man approached Chris King a couple of weeks ago but he said no thanks. Also turned down Canterbury.

I'm sure he has his reasons, but it's a real shame that Jordan Taufua isn't playing for Samoa in the WC. He'd make a huge difference for them.
