Southland v Otago

[Kiwiwomble]

@Siam maybe Southland specifically but we have had a bit of a history for turning up for the tough games and not for the so called easy ones

[taniwharugby]

@Kiwiwomble given all thier games in Invercargill this year have been tight...average of 1 point in it this year...naki being the highest scorer with 17, while Southland have scored 16 (W) 11 (W) 9 (L) 9 (L)

There will be added pressure on them though, as they simply must win to have a shot at the top 4.

Pickerill was really keen on a PT there

Try comes from the next maul

Great start Southland

[Yeetyaah]

Gonna be a looong game with Pickerill at the helm.

[Yeetyaah]

Awesome try

[Dice]

Two sweet passes by Ioane in that try. Good finish by Freedom.

[Yeetyaah]

Vahaakolo looks pretty good. Wonder if the Landers have had a look at him.

[Yeetyaah]

Ioane's having a bad day

Has been back on the beers?

Why did Southland not take 3 before?

Now they do.

"And that is why Brendon Pickerill is one of the best referees we've got." Okay Goldie.

[KiwiMurph]

Not a good few minutes for Eade.

[African Monkey]

@KiwiMurph Crowley should be to blame there imo. That sun looks lethal and he should have taken it upon himself to box but sold Eade down the river by trying to pass it to him twice to clear.

It looks like the sun was in his eyes. Crowley needed to take some responsibility there.

With the boot definitely but looks dangerous with ball in hand

[Bovidae]

Southland really struggle to score through their backs. When they made that break I think it was Crowley who passed to the right when a pass to his left likely resulted in a try under the posts.

[African Monkey]

Was Josh Ioane on the piss at halftime?

[taniwharugby]

Jeez ref missing some real basic stuff
