    @taniwharugby to be fair they've all been captains at some point.

    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.

    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.

    Tyrone Thompson is a serious talent. He's quick and strong. He needs to improve his throwing but this should come sooner or later.

    I've been saying that for years. 🙂

    @cgrant a one two punch of Aumua and Thompson for the Canes in the future will be pretty handy.

    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.

    Nothing better than seeing a hooker sell a dummy and beat a few tackles to dot down after a 60m run

    Fuatai gets what he deserves

    link text

    Ironically we know more about his availability through illegal play this than anything that comes from the Steamers camp on ongoing injuries an availability in general.

    From that same article:

    Bay of Plenty could also find themselves without prop Jordan Lay against Auckland this week.

    He was cited for dangerous play in a ruck during the loss to Wellington and will face a judicial hearing this week.

    So the Welly tight 5 was about how expected - horrible at set pieces.
    But once I saw the sate of the BOP winger I knew there was no way we were going to lose.

    Agree but his chilli sauce is excellent
