Dalzell and Vest are locks we should be able to replace with better players.

Will be interesting to see how Te Ariki Te Puni goes.

As a 13 wing surely he's better than Ennor

[Grooter]

Freedom Try 🙏

[Stargazer]

Don't think it was obstruction. Auckland player just ran into the Otago player. Was milking it.

[Stargazer]

Try stands. Correct decision.

[number9]

Auckland pack dominating.

[Grooter]

well at least the Rayasi anytime try ticket is a winner😔

[KiwiMurph]

Of course it's Vest who gives the ball back by doing a soft hitup with no support.......

[Grooter]

well it's a sad Saturday evening for me right now, hopefully Cane and the boys can cheer me up

[KiwiMurph]

Of course it's Vest....

Fuck him off.

[Grooter]

Congrats to Auckland the much better side this evening
