North Harbour v Tasman

[Duluth]

Good win against the throw from Pierce. Easily NHs best player so far this season

[Duluth]

Very good first quarter from Aoake

[Duluth]

It’s like Telea knew the call

[Duluth]

Page started? McGarvey-Black was named in the side

[KiwiMurph]

@Duluth yep late change. Page looks more comfortable on the wing than centre.

[Steven Harris]

@Duluth was listening to the radio commentary..Parsons said that exactly

[Dice]

Very good half by Harbour.

Can they hold on? I think it'll depend on if Harbour can starve Ta$man of ball again.

[KiwiMurph]

@Dice Ta$man will have second half wind

[Chris B.]

Ta$man's worst half of the season, so far.

They've turned Havili's counter-attack over several times, so far and the handful of promising opportunities have been stymied by clumsy play.

Need to improve markedly in the 2nd 40.

Harbour pack apparently 100kgs heavier than Ta$man's!!!

I was surprised by the numbers, but I think it's wrong. No way are Harbour averaging 121kg per man.

[Steven Harris]

@Chris-B Harbour doing very well at the breakdown ..

[Dice]

Ta$man have 13 men on the field and Harbour are going for 3. Dumb.

[Dice]

Now Ta$man get an intercept try. Nice one Harbour.

[KiwiMurph]

And thats why Harbour are last.

[KiwiPie]

What are Harbour doing here? How can they dominate so much and only be 2 points ahead? What a bizarre game

[KiwiMurph]

Telea under the high ball is no good.

[KiwiPie]

@KiwiMurph he has an unusual technique of trying to catch it with his face

[KiwiMurph]

David Havili has been well contained

[Dice]

Important kick by Gatland. Ta$man now have to score 3 times to win.

[Duluth]

Smashed

40 points to NH

Ta$man’s score inflated by those two intercepts
