Mauger said last week that a few players had been released to be with their whānau back home due to the floodings. No doubt, McClutchie is one of them; I guess he's still in Wairoa.
I'm looking forward to seeing McWhannell and Parker in action. Both looked really good in the preseason games.
@Yeetyaah said in Moana Pasifika v Chiefs:
No pre match build up? How is this a Super Round.
? 30 minutes build up on Stan here in Aus.
@KiwiMurph nothing on sky sport. Just highlights of the Rebels v Canes.
@antipodean said in Moana Pasifika v Chiefs:
PGS harshly penalised there. Neither defender was obstructed in cleaning out.
Your favourite ref.
