Does anyone know why Hastings Boys' never do a haka before their games? All other Super 8 schools seem to do one.
Hamilton Boys get the penalty kick and their 10 misses. 0 - 0
Not sure why, but H'ton again get a penalty. Hopefully, this is not again one of those Hamilton refs who just makes stuff up to help the locals.
The Hamilton 10 this time nails the kick: 3 - 0 Hamilton.
Hastings' line-out close to H'ton's try line. Driving maul ... a H'ton forward comes throught the middle and grabs the ball. H'ton scrum.
That's bs. That was great defence, but H'ton get the penalty. Their kicker doesn't find touch and Hastings on attack again.
Bugger, and now the stream has disappeared.
It's all a conspiracy! The stream returns, and H'ton appears to have scored a try.
8 - 0 H'ton Boys
Finally, Hastings Boys' get a penalty. It's within kicking range ...
I assume Hoera Stephenson is wearing the 10 jersey again ... he puts Hastings on the board.
8 - 3 Hamilton Boys
H'ton Boys stuff up a line-out throw (not 5 metres). Hastings' scrum, still in Hastings' half.
Great grubber from Stephenson, very lucky bounce, caught by - I think - Mefi Tupou, but the next player knocks it on.
H'ton back on attack, but Hastings' fullback clears it.
Great kick from Stephenson. Hastings' line-out on H'ton's 5m.
H'ton put 3 defenders on Cooper Flanders, each time he has the ball.
Geez, what amateur is in charge of the camera and stream. It now looks like they dropped the camera and the stream is gone again.
No stream, but the score on screen has changed. Hastings Boys must have scored a try!
Still no stream. The score seems to be 8 all.
It's half time and surprise, surprise, that's the moment the stream returns.
HT: Hamilton Boys' 8 - 8 Hastings Boys'
Great defence from Hastings, who now get a penalty right in front of H'ton's posts. Stephenson's kick is good and Hastings Boys lead for the first time in this game:
8 - 11 Hastings
Mefi Tupou (I think) penalised for the 2nd time within minutes (couldn't see why, maybe offside?) and ref talks to the captain. Warning?
I don't think this Hastings team is as good as the 2017 version, but Hamilton Boys is definitely not as good as their previous versions.
Great clearing kick from Stephenson (?), Hamilton line-out deep into their half and Hastings steals it ...
