Otago v Wellington (non-competition game)

[Kiwiwomble]

Game not being shown on Stan by the looks of it

[Stargazer]

@kiwiwomble It's 3 - 0 to Otago, but Wellington dominating possession and territory.

[Stargazer]

Saw that coming. Great try to Wes Goosen.

[Stargazer]

That was actually a good chip kick from JGB. Ruben Love converts from right in front of the sticks.

3 - 7 Welly

[Stargazer]

Great turnover Koroi. Otago go to the line-out, 6m from the Wgnt line.

Try Liam Coltman. Quick response! Newbie Millar again successful.

10 - 7 Otago

Toddler son of one of the players is the assistant waterboy. Cute.

[Canes4life]

Once again Umaga-Jensen makes metres setting up that try. The kid is in some form.

[Stargazer]

Great break from Peter U-J; Collins in.

Ruben love again making the easy conversion.

Tomkinson off (injured?); Morris-Lome replaces him.

10 - 14 Welly

[Stargazer]

Stupid from Alex Fidow to go for the handbags with Hohneck, while he should have run back to the defensive line.
Otago close to scoring, but ball lost forward.

[Stargazer]

Penalty goal Millar and it's time for the oranges.

HT: Otago 13 - 14 Wellington

[Stargazer]

Good to see stalling penalised, in this case Richard Judd. If the ref says "use it" twice and you don't, then there are consequences.

[Stargazer]

Great turnover from Withy, good run from Gilbert; if he'd passed to the man coming thourh on his left (Faddes?), it would have been a certain try.

[Steven Harris]

Everything that’s totally wrong about some of the laws in rugby right there , absolutely nothing gets done about teams taking their sweet arse time to set a line out , but a halfback who does not hurry to clear on the instructions of official from a ruck then pays the price by giving away the feed to the opposition.

Justice because Koroi should have been penalised for a blatant push in the back of the Wellington player (Judd?).

[Stargazer]

Try McDowall from the line-out drive. If the try hadn't been scored, Wellington would have had a man in the bin. Was it O'Reilly again, or Plumtree this time?

20 - 14 Otago

Kirifi on for the Lions, replacing Sam Smith.

[Stargazer]

Thompson on for O'Reilly.

[Stargazer]

How did Faddes and Koroi butcher that try? Good defence from the Wellington players near the try line, but only after shit defence in Otago's half.

Should be a red card for Withy. Looked like his shoulder made straight contact with the head (not the shoulder as ref says).

[Stargazer]

It's a red! Such a shame, because that probably rules him out for the remainder of Otago's season.

It took a while, but Goosen finally off for a HIA.

[Toddy]

That's a deserved red. Deserved an old school red to not just 20 minutes (not that it makes a lot of difference at this stage).

[mikey07]

@stargazer I’m surprised they haven’t put us away yet that’s two butchered tries

[Stargazer]

@toddy Yep, it was redder than red! The young lad will learn from it, I hope.
