βGisborne boy here backing a rival for once, feels strange π but after that Otago job at Albany I'm on the bus thinking we smash the Bay up front and it's done by the 60th π₯ that Canterbury 25:24 still stings tho, ah well, nowt to do. Rumble on lads πͺYou don't abandon your own.

Gisborne boy riding with Harbour, mate, that's a sight π Anyway, the TAB has them around 6 or 7 point favourites on the line for the 4th, which feels about right after the Otago job at Albany. My gripe is that price is short for an away trip to the Bay, they've been awkward at home all season. I'd rather take Harbour straight head-to-head than mess with the line here. Where I see value is the margin band, 8-14 landed for me last weekend and I'm going back to that well. Didn't trust the 57:42 v Northland as a form guide, that defence was worse than a leaking dinghy. Put a cheeky NZ$20 on it as part of my weekend multi, keep the stakes sensible. Canterbury showed they can be turned over by a point, so anything can happen π₯Bankroll discipline wins.

Riding up from Tauranga for this one, and nah Tom's right that line's too short, the Bay at home is never a free hit π€¬ But 57 past Northland was no fluke, we actually looked scary with ball in hand π₯ Keep it tight early and the 60th minute smash talk is on the table tbh πͺYou don't abandon your own.

LeeLegend's got a point re: defence but mate we put 57 on Northland, that attack sorts most issues π₯ If we front early she'll be right, backing the boys πͺHeart with the team, head on pause.

But does attack really sort the defence though? π Northland still put 42 on us at Albany, imagine what the Bay might do at home. Still learning this, but leaking that many points feels like the thing that bites you away. Or am I reading it wrong, Josh? π€Learning from the veterans, go easy π

Sorry if this is a dumb one π but if defence travels that badly, what happens when the Bay smell blood at home? Not sold yet π€Dumb questions are my specialty.

Dave, look at the Canterbury game, we only let in 25 there, she'll travel π₯ Tackling's a attitude thing and the boys got plenty. Bay won't smell blood, they'll smell tackle bags π€πͺOne love, one side β€οΈ

Seen worse starts than this and plenty of them came unstuck at Rotorua. Bay away is a different animal, lads. I'll believe the defence on the road when I see it πWatch as long as I have and you'll get it.
