Auckland v Tasman
-
-
At least Vest is gone.
-
-
Good to see Beehre get another chance. I wonder if Vest is injured or dropped
-
@Duluth yeah, looking forward to seeing Beehre. Aoake is substandard for an Auckland wing. Pugh is very small for an 8.
-
Vest not listed as injured
Unavailable due to Injury: Vaiolini Ekuasi, Joshua Fusitua, Hamdahn Tuipulotu, Leni Apisai, Zarn Sullivan, Jordan Trainor, Tanielu Tele’a
Auckland focus in on the Mako at Eden Park
Auckland return to Eden Park for an important fixture against Tasman. As the Bunnings Warehouse NPC moves to the end of ...

Evans was excellent off the bench last week. I think he could play 13, with Heem on a wing.
Both fullbacks being injured is annoying. Rayasi is dangerous but inconsistent at 15

The balance of the trio has been off all year. Auckland usually has at least one large guy in the mix - Ioane, Luatua, Edwards, Kaino etc etc
Jones on the bench is very similar to the starters
Gibson has been in good form though. His return helps

Or try Roger there, might help his AB chances to cover both centre spots.

Pugh is very small, OK. But his main problem is that he doesn't know what to do at the base of a dominant scrum. He had a shocker against Northland.
-
Lots of kids in that Mako forward pack. especially among the loosies.
Probably won't be pretty to watch.
-
Of course it’s TJ
-
My head hurts after watching head clashes like that.

There he was. 1 minute of game time.
-
Ok TJ is incompetent. It was Lane
-
Why's Angus not going off for a HIA?
LOL, and they got the names of the other player wrong. Amateurs.
-
@Duluth I thought it was Beehre standing in the huddle...
-
-
‘Unstoppable force’ got stopped
-
@nzzp They could have saved time if he'd gone off immediately.

how on earth could the officials possibly be expected to know he had a head knock. FFS.
-
@Stargazer and potentially if he passes, back out a minute or so earlier
-
Tony "kiss of death" Johnson.

Eh?
Edit: I assume that's sarcasm.
-
Tasman knock on missed
-
Who knew Paea was a big powerful man...Auckland scrum smokes them
-
Was he on the ball or just on RTS?
-
Nice break by Hotham.
-
Reckon that's a rough card, as he went down he wasn't on the ball, then had a crack as you are entitled to.
-
Who’s the goal kicker with Plummer off?
-
So Angus passed his HIA but staying off.
-
Thought kick was wrong, but it came off.
-
Yes AJ🙂
-
Great conversion.
-
Are you not able to take it dead anymore causing.the scrum back?
-
Very good clearing kick said TJ
Incompetent
-
Thought Rayasi would get there, smart to set it back and RTS takes it
-
If those are the only angles, that's a try.
-
I think he knocked it on, but not clear and obvious, so correct decision to allow it.
-
Haha what a dumb comment Wheeler...balls do bounce when you slam them down with fingers
-
Well taken trynwith speculating back flick by Aumua
