Auckland v Waikato

[nzzp]

surely not straight?

[Canes4life]

Waikato respond with two tries to make it 14-10. Kick to come.

Once an attacking maul goes backwards it should be use.

900kg packs in the semi pro teams. FFS. Rugby with a weight limit for the team would be a lot of fun

[Duluth]

Good turnover by Spencer. Needed that. It’s been a messy few minutes

[Canes4life]

Who’s the Waikato 12? He’s very average.

Not many arms in that 'tackle' either. I don't love the ruling of tackling jumping players generally, but that seemed reasonable. It's when the attacking players are going forward I get pissed off - jumping to catch a pass shouldn't protect you

Edit: going forward

[nzzp]

Segner's been busy. Played well.

Taele runs like silk, but needs to carry better into contact

[antipodean]

WTF is Auckland thinking there at the end? You're in front, kick the ball out and go into the shed for halftime.

Shocking pass from Taele at the end there.

Attacking shape is far better than last year. Error rate was too high in that second 20mins though

Geez this is a tough watch during general play

Switch to the cricket!

[Grooter]

Tito Harris is fun to watch

[Yeetyaah]

Ref says use it 3 times then gives a penalty anyway

[Duluth]

Good first involvement by Choat

[Yeetyaah]

Mcwhannell dumbass getting screamed at by the red to get back onside and still doesn't move

[Steven Harris]

Waikato subbed the wrong guy off ,should have been the fullback

[barky1]

@Grooter his parents Paul and Tohu must be proud
