Northland v Southland

[taniwharugby]

@Duluth pretty sure he had a handful of games for Northland when Dale was up here too...may have suffered a long term injury IIRC

Looks like a change on the bench with Ranger out and Going in

I really struggle to see what value Hohaia brings. I hope he does well but he's never really offered much in the past. Hawkins might be a bit limited at times but is always solid and consistent and brings good goal kicking. We don't really get the same from Hohaia.

I wonder why they're not starting Goodhue, he played well the first game and with Craig still trying to make the step up to this level he's the better bet right now.

I've thought Milo-Harris has been a bit slow and ponderous - I would've kept starting Nock.

Also would prefer Matich starting over Rush.

If we defend like we did last weekend we should be too strong for Southland.

Wasn't expecting to see in the Advocate that NRU will be advertising for a Head Coach for next year. Is Konia leaving or are they just opening it up for applicants.

[Duluth]

Solid start by Northland. Some good defence and then taking the points

6-0

[Grooter]

I backed the wrong former Stag...

Foul play surely.

Yep. Clear shoulder to the head. WTF is the point of the TMO.

[Duluth]

@KiwiMurph

Yeah that was lucky. Dumb from Adams, the ball was already won

Also Ofa with his hands on the ground

The try was great after that ruck though

[Grooter]

that's more like it stags🙂

[Grooter]

Rush

[KiwiMurph]

Southland vs the Turbos for the wooden spoon.

Conversely Northland will be eyeing up a top 4 spot in the 'Evens' pool.

27-7 HT Northland

On that length of the field try? I was worried about it...saw it happen and thought it'd come.back

[Steven Harris]

@Duluth very fortunate they did not come back and look at that , looked pretty bad from Adams

[taniwharugby]

Sensational defence

[Duluth]

Pretty good workrate from Ofa. Hurting people on defence too.

This might be his last game of NPC for a while

[KiwiMurph]

Gregory's career summed up

[Stargazer]

Geez, Gregory.
