@stargazer what is the twitter link, the one above is wrong or isnt working

[Stargazer]

[Stargazer]

That link works for me, but you may have to watch it on Twitter itself, not on here.

[taniwharugby]

@stargazer that one works for me

[Stargazer]

For who missed it: first try scored by Walker-Leawere; converted by Black. 7 - 0 MABs

[Stargazer]

Brasilian hooker sent off with a YC for a late tackle on Black.

[Salacious Crumb]

23rd min. Maori with 7-0 lead. Brazilian stadium is pretty big, so even at about half-capacity that’s a good crowd. They’re better than I expected. Just missed a 52 metre penalty straight in front.

[Salacious Crumb]

Who was that Maori prop who hoofed the ball 60 metres? Not something you see every day.

28th min Maori try. Conv to come. It’s pissing down rain now.

[Salacious Crumb]

Conv missed. 12-0.

[African Monkey]

@salacious-crumb It went over

[taniwharugby]

@african-monkey they were slow putting the extra 2 points on screen on after the 1st try too

Yep, toggling between twitter ‘n’ here and I missed it. Took them a dogs age to adjust their score.

[Stargazer]

Horrendous weather there in Sao Paulo.

Brazil certainly playing with passion; I'm just not sure whether they are playing well, or the MABs have gone down to their level. Some shit passing, including (but not only) from Ruru.

[Stargazer]

Half time: Brazil 0 - 15 MABs

Tries to Walker-Leawere and Dixon; both converted by Black.

[Salacious Crumb]

Brazil awarded penalty right at half. Could have attempted shot at sticks, but was out wide in heavy rain, so they went for lineout, got stuffed in the maul. Go to sheds Maori lead 14-0.

7.5 points per converted try?

[Tordah]

shit game so far, not helped by the weather, Brazil being amateurs and the MABs seemingly not taking it seriously

[Stargazer]

@booboo Getting cross-eyed from watching this game on my phone haha.
