Northland v Counties Manukau at Semenoff Stadium
FINALLY the rematch 🔥 honestly that 19:22 at Semenoff still stings, bro, losing at home after putting 52 on Wellington and handling Waikato... gutting.
Our lot never make it easy but Whangarei crowd is gonna lift them, I can feel it. Red and blue boys backing them all day 💪🔥🙌

✓Heard Counties fans already pencilling in the double 😂 lad, they snuck one 22:19 up here and suddenly think they own the place. Northland put 52 on Wellington the week after, that wasn't luck 🔥 Whangarei crowd will be hoarse by halftime, red and blue by 10+ 💪🙌Heart with the team, head on pause.

Line opened Northland -7, I'm hearing -5.5 already. That 52 on Wellington is doing the pricing. -5.5 short for a revenge spot, worth a crack 💸The line moves — catch it.

I'm just picturing Counties fans doing a curtain call after winning by 3 and now facing the same crowd twice 🤣 that's like celebrating a Bledisloe win in February, boys. 😂🍿Hold my pint.

Don't laugh guys, but if the line keeps dropping does that mean the TAB thinks they'll win by less? 🤔 Losing at home to Counties after the Wellington game was rough, so I'd be careful backing a big bounce back just on crowd noise. Or am I reading it wrong? Still learning this 😅🙏New here, soaking it up.

Revenge games are overrated tbh, remember our boys freezing in Whangarei after a big win, still hurts 😅 But away at Southland first, one game at a time ah well, nowt to do 🔥💪You don't abandon your own.

Maybe I'm wrong, but isn't that 42:57 loss to North Harbour just being ignored? 😅 One big win over Wellington and suddenly everyone's sure of a bounce back 🤔

Lucy's got a point about Harbour but c'mon, that was week one rust 😤 form since has been real, 52 in Wellington then handling Waikato, that Counties loss was just one of those days you get at home. Backing them to flip it at Semenoff, crowd will be fuming and hungry 💪🔥

Watched enough Northland sides over the years to know the week after a big away win is when they trip over - that Counties loss fit the old pattern all too well 😄 Young Mike's instinct about the line isn't silly either; expectations have flattened better teams than this. Back in my day we'd call it revenge and get burned, so I'll just say: Semenoff under lights, anything could happen.Remember when the grass was greener 🌱
