Counties look likely to bash an out of sorts Mooloos. They have Laulala, Papalii and Sotutu back from AB duty, should they choose to play them.Dan54 wrote: Wed Aug 17, 2022 8:35 am Another good few games this weekend fellas, Counties-Waikato should be good.I will go to Naki-Canterbury Saturday, and think perhaps Harbour-Tasman on Sunday will be worth a peek.
I do love this comp!
Li does that every couple of years it seems, suddenly reminds you what he can do. And you could be right on Counties.Torquemada 1420 wrote: Wed Aug 17, 2022 8:53 amCounties look likely to bash an out of sorts Mooloos.

Harbour v Makos looks tasty. Where the hell has Tevita Li been hiding the last few years?

Lucky bastard. I assume you will be cheering on the home crowd or will you be supporting the good guys?Dan54 wrote: Fri Aug 19, 2022 2:25 am I wandering off up to that game tomorrow Kiwias, and suspect with that pack will take a lot of chances the Naki hoped to have, especially as it at Pukekura Park, it's really a cricket wicket, and I thought last game chopped up pretty bad. Bloody great place to watch rugby, but field is not quite up tp it.

. Mate I know I am a rugy tragic but one of the top things (only one of them)coming home was the thought of getting to NPC games, and while got stuffed with covid etc last year I made sure I became a member of Taranaki this year!Nothing tragic about loving rugby and going to NPC matches. I know I will be the same when I eventually end up back home.Dan54 wrote: Fri Aug 19, 2022 4:07 amGoes without saying I cheering for the good guys, which just happen to be the good guysKiwias wrote: Fri Aug 19, 2022 2:48 amLucky bastard.

Yes. Agree. Early days but he has looked tidy with ball in hand, makes good decisions and has an excellent boot.Dan54 wrote: Thu Aug 18, 2022 8:19 pm Have to say fellas watched a couple of Otago's games on tv, and like the look of their 10 Cam Millar, looks a well balanced player Though it's interesting trying to find has age on the net a couple of places (wikipedia is one) have him born in 2001-2002 and his age at 21-22. Anyone enlighten me?
Think he would have to be Clans 10 next year.

As posted earlier, I thought if Sotutu, Papalii and Laulala started, you were in for a thumping. I like this Mooloo backline but can't see how the fwds can compete enough to give them a platform to attack from.Enzedder wrote: Fri Aug 19, 2022 7:04 am Up against the neighbors from Counties tonight.

Good boot, decent vision, can't pass from left to right to save himself. He'd need to progress a lot over the course of the NPC to be a serious contender for a starting soup slot next year.Dan54 wrote: Thu Aug 18, 2022 8:19 pm Have to say fellas watched a couple of Otago's games on tv, and like the look of their 10 Cam Millar, looks a well balanced player Though it's interesting trying to find has age on the net a couple of places (wikipedia is one) have him born in 2001-2002 and his age at 21-22.

Indeed. So expect to see him in an AB shirt sometime soon!Enzedder wrote: Fri Aug 19, 2022 8:01 am This is doing his recall chances all sorts of harm. (Or it should be)
Your boys looking pretty ok at oranges NZer. I have to say up to now they look ok, and liking Coombes-Fabling, reminds me of a Ben Smith type 15. Fairly physical game too.Enzedder wrote: Fri Aug 19, 2022 7:04 am Up against the neighbors from Counties tonight. Pushing shit uphill to think we can win this one tonight.
the lineouts. 
It was a marvelous throw.OomStruisbaai wrote: Fri Aug 19, 2022 8:25 am What's wrong with the ref. The lineout throw was nearly in the flyhalf hands?
Forgetting that Jase is our forward coach now?Torquemada 1420 wrote: Fri Aug 19, 2022 8:02 amIndeed. So expect to see him in an AB shirt sometime soon!Enzedder wrote: Fri Aug 19, 2022 8:01 am This is doing his recall chances all sorts of harm. (Or it should be)
