2019 Māori All Blacks

[Stargazer]

Half time: MABs 7 - 7 Fiji

[KiwiMurph]

Excellent half of rugby. Two evenly matched team's.

[Chris B.]

Nankivell really seems to have found his feet.

I guess one of those guys who started very young so that you don't realise how young he still is.

[Stargazer]

Thompson scores the try after a great pass from Hall! Deserved lead for the MABs.

14 - 7 Maori ABs

[Stargazer]

Parkinson down with an injury. Not looking good.

[Stargazer]

Hope he hasn't broken his ankle; it looked bad when that happened.

[Stargazer]

Walker-Leawere on for Parkinson; Renata has replaced Lomax.

[Stargazer]

Penalty kick for Fiji: 14 - 10 MABs

Nathan Harris and Akira Ioane coming on for Dixon and Karpik.
Akira to 8 and Douglas to 7.

[Stargazer]

Great maul. Turnover MABs.

[Stargazer]

TTT on for Hall. Subbed off way too early.

[Stargazer]

Fiji under a YC warning.

[Stargazer]

Another scrum close to the Fijian try line.

[Stargazer]

Wow. Kick from Black, tapped back by a Fijian player, dotted down by Nankivell.

On-field decision is try. TMO ...

[Stargazer]

The try is awarded!
If the MABs hadn't scored, Fiji would have lost a player to the bin.

19 - 10 Maori ABs after 61 minutes.

Pouri Rakete-Stones makes his MABs debut!

[Stargazer]

Black's kicking has been good! (and I don't mean his goal kicking)

[Stargazer]

Awesome try from Walker-Leawere!

26 - 10 MABs

[Tim]

Different story in NZ's winter eh.

Almost has a Goodhue look to him. Strong, good decision making and direct.
