Taranaki v Southland (Championship SF)

[Yeetyaah]

Did the commentator just leak PGS to Moana Pasifika? Or maybe he was talking about how he played for them in the one off game.

@yeetyaah I was just asking the missus the same question. Will have to listen to it on the replay. So I remember, it was after Taranaki's 2nd try.

@ploughboy eh we all know they can get out of them now

Only two spots left in their squad, and they only have five props and two 1st fives, so would be unlikely unless they go with two 1st fives in their squad.

@tim Good point. They already have 8 loosies, unless one of them is meant to be used as a lock (wouldn't know who).

[Tim]

@stargazer I think Sione Tuipulotu will cover lock. They only have 4 specialist locks in their squad.

There's no way Jono Bredin could have seen a grounding, but he claims he saw a grounding.

It definitely looked like there was no grounding unless the touchline angle showed it, which we didn't see. I'd argue that Alaimalo probably did a high tackle to prevent a try.

One of whom (Poloniati) does not even start for the 'Poo.
