Manawatu v Auckland

Stargazer

Awesome try from the Turbos player, what a piss poor defence from Aucks.

Not clear and obvious, unfortunately. That deserved to be a try.

good effort, but all the hands under it. No chance it got down.

Good Manawatu try again though - well done Green 7

Terrible defense from us.

Mike Fraser is having a bit of a shocker.

Diving after the whistle was dumb.

that was a sweet short pass on the sideline, 8 to 6

Yeah, great skills in no space.

Kirwan

More good skills, nice direct running too.

Crazy Horse

Bloody hell. Zarn Sullivan comes on as a midfield replacement. Are we ever going to see him at 10?

that was a classy last try

Great try to finish things off with our 2 best Rayasi and Dalzell heavily involved.

Impressive performance from an inexperienced Auckland side. Sam Wye and Hamdahn Tuipilotu look the goods.

Dice

Wye looks a lot better than Paea to me. He should get the halfback bench spot on the weekend.

Grooter

Good job Auckland. Huge match on Sunday😄

@FakatavaAllBlack Funnily enough it could be a bit of a banana skin. They did very well away at Ta$man last week.

@Dice Thought Paea was ok too but yeah, Wye really came on and began to speed things up.

A bit of competition at halfback now, Funaki won't want to sit out too many more games.

Fuck was this a non weekend game?

I thought we'd moved beyond weekday games dammit
