[QUOTE="Darwin, post: 529469, member: 24910"] I'm not sure about resounding success. Their season certainly hasn't been a failure as the won the Ranfurly Shield, but getting 5th overall and missing out on a playoff spot (after being losing finalist last season) is a major disappointment. I didn't see the match myself, but it is good to hear Grice had a strong match, as I think he is one of the most talented young 8's in the country. Not surprised that we (Otago) got thumped by Wellington, especially since we rested basically our entire first choice forward pack (and the fact they are much better than us regardless!). It doesn't get any easier for us this week versus Auckland - I'm hoping we can find a way to pick up a bonus point at least out of this match, as that would give up a strong chance of finishing 2nd on the table and securing a home semi.
