Waikato vs Taranaki
-

I don't get the Waikato habit of delaying team naming until as late as possible. You might think they would want to promote to the public for a home game v a close neighbour. Should be a good tussle.
-
Do you know why Pita Gus Sowakula isn't playing? Injured?

Injured. Not sure what, but it was described as minor
-
@Duluth thx!
-
-
@Dice Thanks for having me! Best source for inside info on the tourney - playing an online private fantasy league for this tourney, so this forum is gold
(the platform will be made public in the near future and will have other tournaments going too) -
@Buff Sounds good. I've always wanted to see a Mitre 10 Cup Fantasy comp.
-
@Dice Best provincial rugby in the world in my opinion! Next one you must play with - the platform is called Oracles of Rugby, will post on this forum once they do public registrations. It's very comprehensive with an actual draft (no manager has the same player) and you have customizable squad sizes, rules, transfer / trade restrictions etc...
-
Finally. The line-up has been posted.
-
@Stargazer No Tupaea is weird. My old team mate from high school Rhys Dickinson gets his first game.

He must be injured as he went off at HT in the Canterbury game. More rotation in the outside backs, and props.

What school?
Mitch Jacobson is a big loss so it will be an interesting tussle between Luke and Boshier. I am not surprised there is a specialist no.7 (Nankivell) on the bench.
-
Could be a close battle today with absence of tupaea mitch j and roe
-
@Bovidae Matamata College. We played 2nd XV together.
-
Bit of a rough penalty there.
-
Prop just couldnt help himself there
-
odd call, ref calls backwards, Waikato toe it through, then calls advantage over...?
-
Jacobson is gone. Dumb shit from him.
-
Good break by Perofeta. Finished well by Naki

Yeah that was just a cheap shot. Stupid play
-
haha I pulled out though...er no, she's still pregnant bro!
-
Waikato bomb a huge opportunity while down to 14
-
Pretty good from Waikato during the YC period
-
Fletcher Smith misses two fairly easy penalties, then nails the really tough one.
-
I think I've got some Taranaki players' parents and partners sitting in front of me. They seem to be getting irritated with my remarks. Quite funny.
-
@Yeetyaah Far just chill out brother haha
-
@African-Monkey lmao nothing rude or direct. More just small things.
-
@Yeetyaah shit, thought it was still L3 in Hamilton watching this on TV
-
@taniwharugby haha yeah they closed the other side of the stadium again. Didn't do it last week.
-
Waikato looking like they are gonna tear them open but just cant finish
-
Fletcher Smith has been quite average. Trying the fancy plays too much.
-
Then he knocks it on.
-
Jacobson struggling with those pesky rules
-

Coincidentally, hitting Riccitelli each time... something else behind it?
Jacobson doesn't sound like an Italian name, but maybe a family blood feud dating back to the old country? -
Coombes-Fabling has some wheels eh.
-
naki def taking thier chances better
-
Looked like a late hit
-
Great run by Jacobson
-
@Yeetyaah got some making up to do!!
