            i imagine ioane is not long for dunedin shores...moving him around the backline was what fucked him off with the highlanders

              Based on past history I expect the Waikato team to be named tomorrow. The players rested against Southland should all return but anyones guess who plays on the wing with the injuries to Sinkinson and Dawai, and possible concussion for Coombes-Fabling. Tuhakaraina might be asked to fill a role.

                  Is Ratima covering other positions?

                  Lots of 9, 10, wing options

                  Who covers a midfield injury? One of the starting wingers? (I don’t know much about them)

                    Tuhakaraina is a centre and started there against Southland.

                    I assume Leiua is rested or injured, and Coombes-Fabling and Cook-Savage banged up. Ratima went to the wing on Wed night.

                    Surprised that Sinkinson is available.

                      Otago has dredged up a team with an emphasis on scooping up what was left. A rough run of injuries has forced coach Tom Donnelly to think...

                                    Fuck sake why do we have a 9 covering wing off the bench. Fucking useless.

                                        A win is a win. An ugly win, gives just enough points as a ripper. Take it and fight for a top four spot.

                                            Just 4 points behind Hawkes Bay.

                                            Otago have Manawatu away then Canterbury in Dunedin

                                            HB have BOP away, then host Tasman

                                              Otago should get five points against Manawatu. Then the pressure will be on HB

                                                    I thought they did alright especially against a more fancied side like the Mooloo. A few of the forwards stepped up.

                                                      Given the number of unavailable players, this is a good win for Otago.

                                                          I thought Waikato paid the price for inaccuracy in the last 20 mins. Too many poor passes and dropped balls. Like Otago at the start of the game, Waikato certainly had chances to score at the end. Jacobson should have taken the gap instead of passing to Lam.

                                                              Commanding performance from Fabian Holland in the LO. He is also very mobile. With a few additional kgs of muscle, he could be well in the mix for an AB selection after the RWC. I also liked what I saw of young McClea. He looks to be a good prospect. I would start him ahead of Parapara who is rather slow.
