Tasman v Auckland

[Duluth]

Weird we haven’t seen much of Zarn goalkicking until this year

[Mattasaurus]

Really impressed by Robinson

Amua has been impressive - lots of involvements

[antipodean]

That's a terrible decision.

[Steven Harris]

AR’s having a poor night

[Tim]

RTS has been impressive when running the ball. He should probably be playing 12.

[KiwiMurph]

@Tim perhaps this will pipe down all the casuals that were so certain he would dominate at 15.....

[Duluth]

Clark was on the bench, not Ekuasi

[KiwiMurph]

Tavatavanawai is wonderful at those turnovers - he is so strong

[KiwiMurph]

Did Auckland save money by just not having a backs/attack coach?

[Steven Harris]

@KiwiMurph so much talent out wide but the go to is a high kick 🤷🏻‍♂️

[Tim]

Game over.

[Mattasaurus]

Very ineffectual maul defence from Auckland --- need to be more urgent in getting back in behind the ball -- 2 or 3 of them just leaned on the side of the maul doing fark all

[KiwiMurph]

Finally Auckland keep ball in hand and score a marvelous try

[antipodean]

These refs really don't want Auckland scoring points do they? Imagine checking that.

[Duluth]

Nice touch by Clark

[Mattasaurus]

Ta$man certainly deserve the win , hard to believe how poor Auckland is considering some of the names on the team sheet.

[KiwiMurph]

Auckland's set piece back attack is proper trash.

[Duluth]

Terrible first half again. Surprised Ta$man didn’t finish stronger given all the first half tackling Auckland had to do

[Steven Harris]

@Mattasaurus when you have that many super players and your performance is this poor you only put it down to coaching
On saying that some big names were very quiet

[Duluth]

@KiwiMurph said in Ta$man v Auckland:

Auckland's set piece back attack is proper trash.

Backs were terrible. Their errors and inaccuracies gave Ta$man so much ball in the first half. Horror night for Tanigitau. Midfield struggled on defence

Evans should come back in at fullback. Clock is ticking on Zarn’s time at ten too. He’s an AB level fullback but the consistency of his kicking from hand at ten hasn’t been good enough
