[Machpants]

Flying shoulder in there?

[Bones]

Brilliant contribution by DMac 😂

[ACT Crusader]

Kirifi with the cannonball head into ribs.

Then the Waikato player comes in with a suss shoulder.

[Machpants]

Ref ' sweet, sweet, handbags, sweet'

[ACT Crusader]

Sweet as you got smashed. Sweet you’re penalised.

[Machpants]

DMac had found his level!

[Yeetyaah]

Damian you beast!

[Duluth]

The TMO needed to back further. Fifita with a cheap shot before the Waikato 8 came in

[Steven Harris]

I suspect Waikato will run into the changing sheds wondering how the are 2 points in front after having much of the play in the first half..good contest ..!

[Winger]

23-21 Waikato

I watched the last 15 or so minutes (23-7) and wonder how wellington are so close

[WillieTheWaiter]

adam fucking thompson.. jesus that had to be THE worst blindside defence i've ever seen. was only ever going to go that way, the scrum was down he should have just been hanging off with a loose bind waitign for the play.. god that was shit.
that short throw at the lineout the pass back was about 2 metres forward too.
I really don't like to get this level of rage building this early in the day!

[Yeetyaah]

@WillieTheWaiter I thought the pass to Aumua was forward as well.

[ACT Crusader]

@WillieTheWaiter move him to lock 😎

[Steven Harris]

@Yeetyaah I was waiting for the official , actually any three of them to pick that one up..,still waiting ..do we need a captains challenge in Rugby..?, like how it works in League..

[Machpants]

What a donkey of a pass after a great break

[Bones]

Jesus Proctor. Can run but not much else?

Roe looks bloody awesome.

[Yeetyaah]

The ref tells Perenara to use it twice but he waits another 5 seconds? Does this ever get penalised or is it just for show?

[Machpants]

@Yeetyaah they're allowed 5 seconds, I guess that's what we're at

[Bones]

@Yeetyaah it's not a penalty, pretty sure it's a scrum but can't say I've ever seen it called at this level.

[Yeetyaah]

Yes Rikki, the teams have only had 2 weeks together. Please stop repeating it.
