            Hopefully Harbour puts up a decent fight but they've underwhelmed so far this season

            A worrying thing is their pack seems to be gassing early. Maybe that's due to the shitty kicking game, high error rate of the backs?

            The backline has been really terrible. Maybe Antonio Mikaele-Tu'u can provide some punch in the midfield. Little has been poor so I doubt the midfield will be fixed.
            It'll be interesting to see how Aoake goes on the wing, he was considered a good prospect a couple of years ago but hasn't had many starts since then.

            Is Jared Page contracted to the Blues next year? It's a bad sign if you a re SR player and can't break into this starting backline.
            Speaking of fringe Blues players - where is Jack Heighton? Is he injured?

              Good win against the throw from Pierce. Easily NHs best player so far this season

                      @Duluth yep late change. Page looks more comfortable on the wing than centre.

                          Very good half by Harbour.

                          Can they hold on? I think it'll depend on if Harbour can starve Tasman of ball again.

                              Tasman's worst half of the season, so far.

                              They've turned Havili's counter-attack over several times, so far and the handful of promising opportunities have been stymied by clumsy play.

                              Need to improve markedly in the 2nd 40.

                              Harbour pack apparently 100kgs heavier than Tasman's!!!

                                I was surprised by the numbers, but I think it's wrong. No way are Harbour averaging 121kg per man.

                                    Tasman have 13 men on the field and Harbour are going for 3. Dumb.

                                          What are Harbour doing here? How can they dominate so much and only be 2 points ahead? What a bizarre game

                                            Telea under the high ball is no good.

                                                  Important kick by Gatland. Tasman now have to score 3 times to win.

                                                    Tasman’s score inflated by those two intercepts

                                                      Impressive performance by Harbour.

                                                      I'd say that's the performance of the M10 so far. This came out of nowhere.

                                                                    WTF was that Tasman??!!!

                                                                    Not many who come out of that with much credit. Alex Nankivell was probably the pick. Tima Faingaánuku ran with purpose when he got on. David Havili was generally OK.

                                                                    The forwards got dominated. The scrum got the shit beaten out of it. Beaten at the breakdown, lineout drives defused.

                                                                    Finlay Christie looked rusty. Paea and Talea were both generally pretty awful. Big Leicester was anonymous.

                                                                    Harbour actually much too good - even if they did not really seem to know what to do once they had us down to 13.

                                                                            Damn, how were the Harbour forwards?

                                                                            Best I’ve seen them play for ages. It was clinical stuff at the tackle and ruck in attack and defence.

                                                                            The two Bryn’s controlled the possession well I thought.
