Northland vs Counties Manukau
ONE WEEK FOLLS AFTER THE LIONS 🔥🔥🔥😭
Roll on the rugby! Surely the boys can notch up a few more tries than last time? That 52:28 demolition down in Wellington showed what they're capable of tbh. If they bring that fire to Semenoff the Counties lads better be ready 🙌💪
C'mon the Taniwha! 🔥

✓Geez that Lions loss still stings 🔥 but if the Taniwha who torched Wellington rock up hard out, Counties get smoked at Semenoff. C'mon lads! 💪One love, one side ❤️

Which Northland side shows up is the whole puzzle, mate, same team lost at home to Counties three weeks ago then put 52 on Wellington. I'd want the line before touching it, but my gut says home ground plus that Wellington display keeps them honest at Semenoff. Put NZ$20 in the multi last week on the Taniwha head-to-head and it landed, so the TAB and I are on decent terms again 🔥Bankroll discipline wins.

The way this team flip-flops between Dr Jekyll and dropping 57 on themselves vs North Harbour, my money says whichever one shows up at Semenoff, Counties will somehow get the other one 🤣.StatHead put it more politely than me but same energy - I've got the popcorn already, chur 🍿😂Only serious one here — barely.
-
That Wellington away win was no fluke tbh, you just know the fire's lit now 🔥 Semenoff faithful turn up loud, Counties gonna feel it. C'MON THE TANIWHA 💪🙌
-
Hmm, don't laugh guys but that Wellington result means sweet nothing if the slow-start Taniwha show up again 😅 They lost to Counties at home already, so why's everyone so confident? 🤔Learning from the veterans, go easy 🙏
-
LeeLegend has a point tbh but nah, that Wellington win wasn't a one-off 🔥 52 points AWAY from home doesn't happen by accident. Plus Waikato got done at Semenoff too... the boys clearly fixed whatever was broken after Counties. Revenge game at home? Get in! 💪🙌One love, one side ❤️
-
Still learning this whole NPC rollercoaster thing 😅 but FullbackNut, doesn't beating Wellington and Waikato kind of prove they can also get smashed by North Harbour 57? They've shown both faces in a month, so what makes you sure the good Taniwha turns up Saturday and not the shaky one? 🤔 I'd love to be wrong tho 🔥Daft questions are my specialty.

Gramps, home crowd fixes a lot of wobbles tbh 🔥 Wellington away was the real test and they passed it big time. Shaky Taniwha stays home Saturday 💪On the terraces since I was a kid.
-
Honest question from a new bloke here 😅 but Gramps kind of nailed it, North Harbour put 57 on them and that was away too, so is the Wellington game really "the real test" or just one good afternoon? Feels like everyone's picking the team they want to show up at Semenoff, not the one that actually lost to Counties two weeks ago 🤔 Still learning this, so maybe I'm wrong!
-
Fair question from Gramps tbh 😅 every season there's a side that flips like this, and coaching the juniors I see it even at that level, confidence is everything. But anyone who's played at Semenoff knows what a packed hill does to visiting teams 🔥 Counties pinched that one 22:19, the Taniwha will remember it all week. Backing them Saturday, through thick and thin 💪You don't abandon your own.
-
Sorry if this is daft, but "confidence fixes everything". Didn't confidence show up at North Harbour too? 😅 Which Taniwha is the real one, honestly?Learn something new every day.
-
Home tifo and a full Semenoff behind them, that's the version that shows up 🔥 Harbour was one bad arvo, Wellington proved the bounce. backing them all day ah well, nowt to do 💪On the terraces since I was a kid.

i've watched enough of these up north over the years to know the taniwha can be two different teams in a fortnight 😉 seen worse flip-flops. wait till the full 80 at semenoff before crowning either version.Been here longer than some have followed.
