Taranaki v Otago (Championship Final)
-
@kiwiwomble well Otago look like they are building nicely whereas 'naki look to have dropped off thier earlier form.
-
That Otago team from the 90s absolutely typifies the "golden period" of NZ Domestic rugby for me. Talent everywhere, heaving 'brook, Shield heartbreak, awesome rugby to watch.
-
@mariner4life yeah, lots of teams and sports talk about a "golden generation" but there are few better examples of a true one
Even those finals in the 2000's i feel we were starting to punch above our weight...but there was some great rigby played in the 90's
I have to say i start to feel a similar vibe to when the black caps play the aussies...more often than not it seems to be a bridge too far
-
@taniwharugby Taranaki won't be lacking motivation to have an unbeaten season. I'm not saying that Otago can't win, as they did take the RS the last time they played there.
-
pretty much full strength, no excuses

@gt12 said in Taranaki v Otago (Championship Final):
Koroi not know the laws there?
Probably just hoping it went dead but more likely almost his entire life with one set and a more recent change to a new rule
-
Naki very much earn their lead, we’re definitely guilty of not converting when dominant on attack
-
Has Florence signed a super contract? I liked him when he came in as injury cover for the highlander last year I think, seems a big fast open side

@kiwiwomble The Blues should have signed him to complete our set of Gingers.
