Wellington v BOP

@Steven-Harris He is close to becoming my favourite openside.
NZ's Michael Hooper, even down to the mo
-
@Stockcar86 Eewww, don't compare him to the guy whose eyes are too close to each other!
-
Wellington might have the three fiestiest players in Nz rugby. Between Coles, Kirifi and Perenara they sure do get fired up.
-
@Canes4life That's not always a good thing though.
-
@Stargazer it isn’t. But can be a very good thing if they channel that passion towards the right areas.
-
@Canes4life esp when one of them is Captain
-
Fucking hell
Well done Wellington way too good
-
@taniwharugby to be fair they've all been captains at some point.

@Canes4life said in Wellington v BOP:
Kirifi reminds me of Masoe, shame he’s probably a little too small for test rugby.
I've always thought that too, but he definitely plays well above his size. He bumped off Carroll and co.

Kinda my point

Oh geez, Welly have a showpony. Don't overdo that Ruben.
Loved it. Great to see a number of talented youngsters so excited about wearing the Wellington jersey and winning.
-
Geez Kirifi is an absolute animal. He's that club openside we've all played with who is an outright gun and seems destined to never get higher honours eh. Probably smokes two packs a day.
A lot of young fellas really stepped up.. Proctor though looks like that kid who ran through everyone at school and thinks he still can.
Vella a man apart for BOP.

@cgrant a one two punch of Aumua and Thompson for the Canes in the future will be pretty handy.
-
Think we missed Karpick at openside hope he back soon
-
Connor Garden Bachop won’t see any further game time this year sustaining what looks like a broken arm in the Lions Insta story.

I hope the Canes can keep Thompson. They have three already but one is now a bit injury prone. And one a bit limited but still a good backup

As a bit of comfort for Bay fans, the team that started the final last season had Wardlaw, Ainley, Franklin, Karpik, Matenga at 4-8 in the pack with Ross a starting prop, none of them played last night. Blake and Eklund are missing, Ravouvou, Narawa & Judd missing from the backline from last season and Black absent last night. This is a much changed team and they don't seem to have much fluency.
