Waikato v Auckland
-
Fuck Kirkpatrick haha just get it out.
-
Nothing in it. Cooper is hopelessly biased

Meanwhile, why is it Kiwi female commentators in rugby and cricket feel like they need to use the forceful shreik as their normal tone?? No issue with female commentators in general. The woman who's name escapes me but who was used a lot in CWC is the best around, but speaks normally. She doesn't seem to feel she needs to somehow deepen her voice and yell at us. There are good female commentators in MLB and the NBA as well. Good on Riki Lee Swannel for being something of a pioneer, but not all pioneers actually do it well. Stop fucking hurting my ear holes.

@Yeetyaah Yeah we certainly didn't deserve to win it. You guys have some good young players coming through and probably deserved the victory despite getting dominated at set piece. Ruru had a shocker for us and him and Leuila aren't clicking at 9 and 10.
We'll get a touch up next week I feel if we don't improve. Even though Canterbury played virtually a club side today, they'll take confidence out of it.

@shark You guys are still last

Tupaea was uncharacteristically quiet tonight. Reihana average as at the back. Sweeney his usual. Halfbacks were good. Forward pack decent.
Ruru was shit. First five was shit. Front row was decent. Midfield and wingers were great. Subs were meh. Kirkpatrick was dogshit.
-
@shark Oh yeah of course :smiling_face_with_open_mouth_smiling_eyes:
Seriously though, think you guys could take us next week. Plummer, Manu and Trainor not being there is hurting us out wide and our starts have been poor which ultimately cost us tonight.

Auckland desperately needs Plummer back.
Yes
DL and Ruru need to be dropped
Some good props in Auckland right now.. and that’s with two props in the AB squad too
Oh well, we played terribly and didn’t get beaten

We should have Ennor and Franks available as well, surely.
