Taranaki v Auckland
-
Does Choat and Gibson work?
-
@ACT-Crusader Nah, not on attack anyway. Our loose trio lacks a bit of punch now with Ioane and Sotutu going into the ABs setup. Having said that, we don't really have a choice atm so they're kind of put there together by default.
-
@African-Monkey I’ve been pretty impressed with Choat defence and work at the tackle. SRA and NPC so far has unearthed some very good loose forwards.
But neither Gibson and Choat really carry much but are more about helping to secure attacking ball.
-
Good to see Tele’a back, the cover looks a lot better with him there.
Although I do want Sullivan to get some meaningful game time at some stage. Auckland are running out of chances to do that (maybe against Northland? Ta$man, NH, Waikato, Canterbury are the other matches)
