Auckland vs Wellington

[Dice]

Time to sub Ruru out.

[African Monkey]

@Dice Yeah, his service doesn't get any better.

[Dice]

Like I said, our attack is too tight. We might as well just name no name backs and it wouldn't change a thing to our attack.

[African Monkey]

The score could realy blow out here. Wellington getting stronger and stronger, Auckland haven't come out of the sheds.

Bullshit! Ruru is running the short side on his own.

[Dice]

Great tackle from Clarke.

[African Monkey]

Wellington could give this comp a real shake I feel. They're getting stronger and stronger with every performance. Auckland are in no mans and to the point where even if we do scrape into the semis, we're only making up the numbers.

[Stargazer]

What kind of tackle attempt on Billy Proctor was that?

[Stargazer]

Nothing seems to work for Auckland. Not their game.

[African Monkey]

@Stargazer Don't start that shit haha. He was beaten on the outside anyway.

Not their season. Auckland have been poor the whole competition.

[Stargazer]

It's exactly what the commentators are saying. Wellington hasn't done anything spectacular, but Auckland just couldn't do much right in this game.

[nzzp]

Bloody frustrating to watch once more. Glad I didn't wander down today - got loads done at home instead

[Stargazer]

@KiwiMurph Yeah, and that's despite having a very good squad on paper.

[number9]

Auckland Backs have been letting the Team down. They get so much ball and eff it up, too much jungle footy.

[African Monkey]

Man what a hiding. Not looking forward to watching what Ta$man will do to us next week. Wellington used the breeze and the sun very well in the 2nd half, and strangled us on D, to the point where the chip over the top was our only option. Yes, our backs are all over the place, but we also have a severe lack ball carriers in our pack where we barely broke the advantage line all day.

Same as every game this year. Wellington were just the first team to punish us for the inaccuracies

Really struggling to get the ball beyond the first pod and when we do go out the back the passes are just slightly off... then the rush defence kills us
There was only a slight breeze, so there's no excuse for the passing skills

It was good to have a kicking option from fullback for the first time this year

Has he been signed by anyone? Also Ben-Nicholas?

I guess we will have to wait for the official squad announcement but surely there must be whispers.
