FINALLY 😀πŸ”₯ that 19-22 at Semenoff still stings ngl, dropping it at home like that... ah well, nowt to do but turn up and make some NOISE this time Count me IN for this one πŸ’ͺ lads just went down to Wellington and put 52 on them, so the form is THERE. Back at Semenoff under lights? you just know the boys are gonna come out firing. Revenge tour starts now πŸ™Œ backing them all day, who else is going??

    Gutted I'm not from up there tbh, that under-lights revenge night is gonna be electric 😀 Harry you mobs better blow the roof off Semenoff, 19-22 at home should sting every single of you into a frenzy. Wellington got 52 put on them, Counties are next on the list πŸ”₯ backing Northland all day, get in! πŸ’ͺ
    You don't abandon your own.

  • Burnt me NZ$20 when Counties pinched it at 22-19, so I'll wait for the line before touching the rematch. Home payback at Semenoff feels worth a punt though πŸ”₯
    Bankroll discipline wins.

  • ha, you mobs will have the whole of Whangarei deaf by kickoff then πŸ˜„ just remember Counties pinched it late, so plenty of noise but keep the nerves steady, eh. back in the day we'd stand the whole match at Semenoff anyway
    Seen it all, lads.

  • Lost 57-42 at Harbour then suddenly batter Wellington by 24? Weird old season eh. I'd back the bounce-back, but the TAB line will tell the real story 😏
    It's a lottery, not sport.

  • Agree with Ultra88, steady nerves and all that. Though I'd add this: 52 on Wellington reads lovely until you remember Harbour did worse to us the week before. Weird old game sometimes, eh. Back in the day we called that "one week rugby", anyone could have anyone and no one inside the fences ever knew which mob would show up. πŸ˜„ I'll be there under the lights anyway, been going to Semenoff since before some of you were born and the 19-22 job still sits wrong with me. If the lads turn up the way they did at Wellington, Counties are in for it. If they turn up the way they did at Harbour... ah well, we'll see
    Seen it all, lads.

  • Weird season indeed but you lot are skipping the bit that matters, Counties came to Semenoff and nicked it off us, so revenge is the only currency here 😏 I had a few NZ$ on Wellington away and that paid sweet, but the TAB line for this one will be tight as. Already clearing the Friday for it 🍿

  • Been watching rugby under lights since before Semenoff had those fancy towers, and I'll tell you the young lot one thing for free: a season like this teaches you nothing until it's done. We lost 57-42 up the road at Harbour, then go put 52 on Wellington a week later. Anybody claiming they know which Northland side turns up Friday night is having themselves on πŸ˜„ Revenge is a lovely word but Counties showed at Whangarei they can grind a tight one out too, that 19-22 went down to the wire. Back in my day we just turned up, froze a bit, and yelled anyway. So aye, I'll be there in spirit from Whanganui, glued to the wireless. Nerves steady, hearts open. See what the old ground says, eh πŸ˜‰
    Remember when the grass was greener 🌱
