Knights at home is never good for us, it’s usually raining too.
I’m back to suffering bouts of anxiety and a tight chest leading into the weekends game! 🤦🏽♂️
Looking forward to Capewell being back on his preferred LH side of the field which could mean a more offensive threat along with his top...
For anyone who is interested, here is the latest update of the construction of Te Kaha stadium in Christchurch.
When you drive past you get a great understanding of the scale of the build.
It’s going to be quite impressive.

Good to see Ford have a good game last night after swapping sides. This might mean we see more from Capewell on his return to his favoured left hand side.
I think the team needs to find a spot for Pompey. He played every game last year and was good for the majority of them.
Changes will be few...
We have had a problem at the 20min mark in all our games, feeding control to leaking a lot of points.
It’s been obvious that once AFB leaves the field, and Barney to an extent we loose the midfield duel, also as opposition teams bring on new ‘Big’ fresh bodies.
Sharks and Manly games stand out...
Commentators with 20 to go mentioned only 3 offloads all game.. I wondered if the Ghost of Stephen Kearney had infiltrated the team.
Nuts and bolts off it.. if you play a structured game it has to be hard and fast, otherwise you need some extra weapons in your arsenal .
We are not showing...
I definitely think we sign another middle forward for next season. Someone who has a few seasons under their belt but not at the tail end of their career.

Would be interested in seeing Tauapiki play a game in the halves and start Geronimo Doyle at FB.
Taine had some lovely touches leading up to some of those tries.
The team is going pretty well considering how young they all are.
These past weeks we have been out muscled. Last night Sua was destructive. Out wide! Would love him in our side.
Not having Marata and Walker hurt.
A lot of chat about being one dimensional. Hard to disagree at the moment when what you are doing doesn’t work.
Why even play TMM?. You might as...
This quote from Ivan Cleary sums up not just the player we are getting but the person. Leadership and respect is earned and can’t be bought. 💪🏾
Panthers coach Cleary said: “The leadership and cultural impact he has displayed since coming into first grade has been outstanding. He’s evolved into...
I said to a mate the same thing about Tof Sipley. He is a huge human and was a menace every time he made a carry. Hes matured into a really solid front rower
DCE skipped effortlessly outside the defenders last year to create overlaps so will need to watch that today.
Ben T playing Centre today from the back row so it will be interesting if Tohu/ RTS target him to create some chances.
Stefano Utoikamanu has a player option to leave The Tigers next year by all accounts IF the Tigers miss the play offs, so cue the chatter about his plans come September.
