Waikato v Magpies - Ranfurly Shield

[Nepia]

WTF, who knew you could get a penalty for having your mouthguard in a sock ... and it could be the game changing penalty.

Stupid by Dunn to do that tackle after the earlier one, that's Solomone Kata level dumb.

Also, that dipshit Lose called us Of Plenty.

[Stargazer]

So basically two of the Waikato tries are due to stupid Magpies mistakes. We're still in this.

And Waikato's useless lineout thrower for the Reece try.

[Chris B.]

So the Waikato supporters didn't even manage to create a thread on the main board?!!

Go Hawkes Bay - and these might be the only times you hear me say that this century!

[Higgins]

@nepia I'm still spewing over that one. Surely Reece must not have been the requisite 10 metres back from the line of touch until he was allowed to advance.

[Higgins]

@chris-b Perhaps they are all at the game? Speaking of which I have not yet spotted Stockcar86 waving his flag yet.

[taniwharugby]

@nepia didnt know that was a thing at this level, in Jnr rugby refs tell you they will YC you if you dont have mouthguard in.

[Higgins]

Another rolling maul lineout drive try coming up?

[Higgins]

Blast am poor lineout followed up by a Taulagi forward pass to J Lowe when he was is a semi space 20 metres short. Please note HB Captain, that is why you always take the easy three points from a easy kickable penalty instead of going for glory.

Why would we? Posters can come here.

Bryant finally spots a forward pass, sadly it was a Bay one and the two he's missed have been from the Mooloo.

Yep, should have taken the 3.

I'd rather they did the same in this case too.

[African Monkey]

Geez Hawke's Bay really don't want to win this game, and Isa Nacewa is really annoying to listen to.

[Higgins]

JJ Taulagi sadly not having one of his better days. Hopefully he might pull of one bit of magic to bring about a HB try to make up for some of his little mishaps.

[Higgins]

Penalty try????? Looked like a try coming up for me until the illegal collapse by Waikato

A little be too far out.

Judging by the stands I'd guess not!

Brother is there @Higgins . I’m confined to bed with a stuffed back and a bucketload of Tramadol

Ten minutes of dominance by the Bay leads to nothing with Waikato getting a lucky possession and scoring completely against the run of play down the other end, adided by a Taulagi (or whoever it is wearing the orange/red boots) miss tackle.
