Yellow all day ..here’s the momentum shift

Unfortunately we're still pedestrian...

Good call to sub Narawa.

@Donsteppa both these teams doing their best not to win this game ..🤦‍♂️

[Dice]

Trask looks good as a fullback.

Agreed! We finally took an opportunity there, but we'd been doing our best not to for a while 😊

Narawa looked disinterested. His team needs urgency to hold the lead. Maybe the hard knock from Lowe tackle impacted.

Yep, he barely got above a jog for much of the time

Joe Webber is inspirational today

Scrum

[Steven Harris]

@Steven-Harris wrong call..

[Donsteppa]

Yusssss!!!!!

[Duluth]

Plenty of errors from both sides

The Bay has a good recent record in these games. They’ve won 5 of the last 6 now

@Duluth was standing on sideline by last scrum. Ref calls hard to understand. Thought bop infringed first when they got scrum. But two earlier ones in sequence thought hb player should have incurred the penalty. So tough for poor ref to decide what to ping. Thought Trask Webber and van den Hoven kept bop in match with huge efforts. Most hb guys went very well. Great contest

[Steven Harris]

Big turning point for me was pulling Ash Dixon , should have kept him out for the entire 80..congratulations to the Steamers, but I thought those missed opportunities would come back to bite.

[ARHS]

Well done to The BAY

[Dice]

Good win by The Bay.

HB needed to score more points in the first half with all that possession and territory.

His intercept try might have been the turning point in the game. The classic 14 pt try.

Everyone outside of Hawke's and Canterbury is probably happy with the final result.

[Steven Harris]

Good point .

The real Bay until we meet again. Lost nearly every stat except scoreboard and penalties conceded, so bloody lucky to escape with a win. Happily take it though as there is always a good stoush between these two teams, even if accuracy was lacking by both teams at times.

The Bay have two tough games to come against harbour and Waikato, but Canterbury have to turn their season around with their last two against the Ta$man invitational XV and Auckland.

Interesting end to this season to come

Good luck to Hawkes next week in their shield match
