2018 New Zealand Schools

[Stargazer]

Jones should have passed instead of trying to go for the try himself. Two players unmarked to his right.

[Stargazer]

Now it's a try! Sam Darry.

[Stargazer]

Half time: NZ Schools 36 - 17 Australian Barbarians Schools

[Stargazer]

.

The try from that big Aussie prop:

[Stargazer]

Try to the Aussie centre. NZ defence lacks a bit of organisation out wide. 36 - 24 NZ

[Stargazer]

Try Jacob Kneepkens after good little kick from Murray.

Zarn Sullivan struggles with the kicks. Apparently there's a bit of wind in Brisbane.

41 - 24 NZ

[Stargazer]

Reihana on for Sullivan. Also a change of LH prop.

[Stargazer]

Tauakipulu on for Thompson.

[Stargazer]

Hmm, changes to our frontrow and we start losing the scrum. I hope it was just this one scrum.

[Stargazer]

Try Louie Chapman after a little break and great pass from Reihana. Easy first conversion from Reihana.

48 - 24 NZ

[Stargazer]

Great break from Jones, but he should have offloaded when he still could. The NZ 12 was unmarked.

The reserve hooker scores after Sam Darry ripped the ball from one of the Aussies and a break from Wrampling.

Reihana converts.

55 - 24 NZ

A lot of players have been subbed.

[Stargazer]

Funaki (for Champan), Segner (for Prain) and another NZ player coming on.

[Stargazer]

Forward pass from Maraku; if it had been good, I've no doubt Wrampling would have scored again. Impressive player.

[Stargazer]

Another dominant scrum from NZ.

[Stargazer]

And now we're penalised for pushing early in the scrum.

[Stargazer]

Apparently, the Aussie Barbarians have never scored as many points against NZ as in this game.

[Stargazer]

Several NZ players have been down with cramp. Now Murray.

Sullivan back on, Murray off.

[Stargazer]

Funaki > Chapman

[Stargazer]

Try to the Aussie right winger.

Full time: 55 - 31 NZ

[98blueandgold]

How big is the NZ tight 5!!!!!! predicted that they could be best for a while, dominating lines outs and scrum. Probably tried to hard in this game, needed to play % at times.
Wrampling and Murray awesome along with Darry
top team after two games.
