Oceania U20 - NZ vs Fiji

[Stargazer]

And TH prop Calder has come on.

[Chris]

Calder on at TH and Cashmore on at First five
Hannah on at lock for Holland

[Stargazer]

NZ goes wide and Lakai scores the next try. Good team try.

Miller misses the conversion.

Haig and Lennox have come on.

41 - 5

[Chris]

Haig,Rove and Lennox on

[Stargazer]

Try to Lennox. As commentators say, many could have scored. Overlap of about 4 players.

Not sure who converted the try. I assume Miller.

48 - 5 NZ

[Chris]

Try to Lennox converted by Cashmore 48-5

Cashmore

[Stargazer]

Selections and subs are always a bit of a mystery in NZ U20 rugby, because it's not about the win and all will get game time, but why is Miller still on the field and has Cashmore replaced Hurley?

Try to Sititi.

Cashmore converts.

55 - 5

Yep he replaced Hurley.

[Stargazer]

Ill-discipline of the Fijians is getting worse; frustration no doubt. Totally unnecessary how that Fijian forward still dived on Sititi after he had already scored the try. Not penalised because of the try, but I don't like it.

[Stargazer]

@Chris Yeah, that was not my question; the question was why they kept Miller on the field and instead decided to take Hurley off when Cashmore came on.

[Chris]

Try to Rove

No idea bad sub .

[Stargazer]

That was a bad pasage of play, no doubt because it's wet, but Rova lucky to pick up the ball and score.

Cashmore converts.

62 - 5 NZ

The try fest has arrived. No doubt in part because of the red card.

[Chris]

Hannah is a string bean but has made some big metres and pulled of some big hits.

[Chris]

Hurley on the wing Springer got subbed.

[Stargazer]

Hurley is back on. Who went off?

Try to Cashmore.

Springer

[Stargazer]

@Chris Ah, that explains it.

[Stargazer]

Cashmore converts.

69 - 5 NZ
