@mariner4life You feckers could make some sort of effort...!

Mayors are so yesterday. We’ll get the Delorean ready to travel back to you shortly.

Just buy the Sports Almanack and save yourself the heartache, Biff!

Just starting to get fired up for this game - let's hope we aren't 21-0 down and a man down after 20 minutes this week.

First semi since 2004 ....

[Donsteppa]

Narawa has been tackling well, but not rolling away.

Ta$man guy was holding him in there

They have a few runners in front of the ball at times, or flat at best.

[taniwharugby]

@Donsteppa yeah alot going on, expect the ref is on information overload

[KiwiPie]

Bloody rolling mauls.

Luke Campbell is a good half back but he's a turnstile in defence

[KiwiPie]

Missing so many tackles. This will get ugly if we don't start making some

This is turning into a game for Tahuriorangi’s more physical presence around the ruck.

[Donsteppa]

15 misses tackles in 28 minutes is a bad sign, but not too costly on the scoreboard yet (relatively)

[Donsteppa]

Not sure why Havili is relitigating that one...

[taniwharugby]

has to be a YC surely?

A hometown @Chris-B decision?

[taniwharugby]

@Donsteppa lucky I reckon, he still had hold of his feet at the end, so his actions still contributed to him going over.

[KiwiPie]

That was almost a straight yellow for Christie for cynical play

[Donsteppa]

Finlay Christie is the classic angry ginge who in the old days of rugby would have been a deserving magnet for a punch from a grumpy opposing forward. Double professional foul there.

[Donsteppa]

Finally a yellow from Hometown.

[Donsteppa]

Always pass the ball to Joe Webber.

[taniwharugby]

finally!!

Made hard work of that, but good patience

[Donsteppa]

13 - 7 to Ta$man after 38 minutes. Feels a fair reflection of the game so far
