Good effort! Anyone got info on scorers etc?
Surely Mara is playing today then, he'd have played in that game if he wasn't getting a run I imagine.

Windsor Wolves 22
Tries: A Taumata, R Walker, C Walker, S Earl
Conversions: A Taumata 3

Auckland Vulcans 40
Tries: A Nafetalai 2, J Moon 2, W Peace, P Godinet, M Robinson
Conversions: B Seymour 6

Apparently Joel Moon carved up,Also Seymour,Godinet and Lousi making strong impressions when the Vulcans went on a 5 try blitz

 

[Fazz_old]

Moon carved up in preseason...it's like he gets too comfortable when he's named in first grade. Screw Seymour. He needs to play awesomely for 4-6 straight games to get another chance imo.

 

[Magic Stick_old]

Maybe Moon struggles cause he never gets the ball.specially with Mannering inside him

Same with Locke?

 

[Ryan_old]

I don't think it's Moon's offense that is the issue. It's his defense, or his contributing effort on defense, that got us split open a fair few times against the Dragons and Tigers.

I hope Mannering either pulls his finger out or we don't re-sign him when he's off contract next. He's been horrible for 2 years now imo.

All three of our teams won this weekend - that doesn't happen very often.

Vulcans are live on Sky this Saturday

Nice! Any idea why they're on all of a sudden? It's been years since the Vulcans/Lions have been on sky hasn't it?

Saw it advertised on 40/20 which was not too bad a watch this week

 

[Spence_old]

Awesome! 3 games of league that I actually care about in one day!

 

[Fazz_old]

Exactly my thoughts! Maybe the u20s rates well so sky are giving us even more league?

 

[Spence_old]

Let's hope they start playing the National Comp next! Well more games, anyway. I think they play a few on Maori channel?
