FINALLY we're back at Navigation Homes on the 3rd!! 😍πŸ”₯ That Whangarei escape had me yelling at my screen, one point!!! πŸ’ͺ If we bring that fight against Hawke's Bay, we make it two on the bounce - you just know the boys will turn up for this one πŸ‰πŸ–€

    One-point scrap in Whangarei after two hidings? Nah, that's a one-off not a comeback πŸ˜… Hawke's Bay will smell blood at Navigation Homes, you just know it. Ah well, nowt to do 🀷
    You don't abandon your own.

  • One-point escape after two hidings usually means the line on Hawke's Bay stays short. I'd wait for the TAB market Thursday, grab the Magpies if they drift near double digits πŸ˜­πŸ’Έ
    Value over a big price πŸ’Έ

  • Whangarei was less a win, more the boys finding the exit door before the building burned down πŸ˜‚ Gramps I'm with you, bring a raincoat on the 3rd 🍿
    Memes are analysis too.

  • gramps is probably right, seen worse teams than us get found out at home πŸ˜„ still, that northland scrap showed some guts. ah well, we'll see on the 3rd.

  • Funny how everyone suddenly rates them after scraping past a Northland side that's had its own dramas πŸ˜‚ They got pummeled by Otago 50-21 at home less than two weeks ago, that stays in the legs. Hawke's Bay coming to Navigation Homes will fancy it plenty. Chloe's right to wait for the TAB, short lines on hype teams are how punters donate πŸ€‘πŸ’Έ
    Any stat can be bent.

  • andrew's got a point about otago staying in the legs, aye. but back in my day teams rallied after a hiding, watch as long as I have and you'll get it πŸ˜‰ hawke's bay won't fancy pukekohe much either.
    Been here longer than some have followed.

  • Andy's still sulking about Otago like we forgot Southland got 47 put on them πŸ˜‚ Remind me of your ROI before you preach, mate. TAB's still not scared of Pukekohe, that tells you plenty.

  • Andy's got a fair point about that Otago hiding, but I watched us cough up worse before bouncing back. One-point wins build belief, seen it many a time πŸ˜‰

  • πŸ˜‚ the same blokes who backed them at 33-43 against Auckland now acting like prophets, aye? Reality check: that Otago game was 21-50 at your own ground, Southland was nearly a month's worth of good vibes ago. One-point escape in Whangarei is a lottery ticket that got scratched lucky, nothing more. Hawke's Bay on the 3rd will tell you the truth 🀑😏
    Here to argue, not to nod along.

  • seen it all before, aye. escaped whangarei by a point and suddenly everyone's remembering the southland 47 like the otago 50 never happened. robbedagain's got a fair yarn about lucky tickets, and i've scratched a few duds myself over the years, believe me. still, i remember a few Bledisloe nights at eden park where one scrap of belief turned a side's whole season around. hawke's bay at navigation homes on the 3rd will tell us more than any of us reckon. if the legs have recovered from that otago hiding, they'll fancy it πŸ˜‰
    Seen it all, lads.

  • Back in my day a one-point get-out-of-jail in Whangarei was worth its weight, no matter what the young fellas scratching their TAB tickets reckon πŸ˜‰ But I've also seen a Pukekohe crowd get excited off one good scrap and then watch Otago put 50 on them the next week. Hawke's Bay on the 3rd will tell us more than any of us want to know. We'll see, aye.
    Watch as long as I have and you'll get it.
