He did well. It doesn’t prove height is his only weakness though. If we are adding hypothetical attributes to players though, I would give Jordie a yard of pace and would prefer him to DMac. It’s early days with Jordan so I’m not sure how I would change him. Right now he looks a very complete package as is.

One of the US streaming sites had that last match down as being Waikato vs Wellington Phoenix. Might explain the result.

I see they also have Otago down to play Oakland . Are Oakland any good at rugby? It might just give Otago a faint glimmer of hope.

Yes - it looks very strong. Pretty much a Super Rugby squad.

This Auckland team looks phenomenal. Easily SR standard. I'd go as far as saying that the Auckland provincial team would win Super AU.

Has there ever been a team that collectively has a worse set of haircuts/styles than this Auckland team? I just saw a group of them walk past the camera in the pre-game coverage and they looked like something out of Last of the Mohicans.

Any reason they haven't gone with the fake crowd noise?

They have got fake crowd noise. Just a small crowd. Is your TV on mute?

Nice try that. Auckland should dominate and they are certainly looking like they might - dammit.

They hung in there for 25 minutes. If Auckland score early in the second half things could get nasty.

This could be brutal.

Bet Otago really wish they started against northland and southland until the all blacks left

It brought me no pleasure. As a Cantabrian I am naturally backing the Southern side.

Any question that starts wth "Why the hell did Akira ..." will never have an answer.
