    <p>For the early tackle on the scrum half or coming through the ruck?</p>

    <p>If it's the latter, then wrong call IMHO. He came in from behind the last feet, tried to kick the ball, and then marched through the centre of the ruck.</p>

    <p>Or did I see something different with my one eye?</p>

    <p>I think it was for an early tackle, combined with the earlier warning for a high tackle by the same player.</p>

    <p>Several kicks now gone out on the full. Stop bloody kicking if you don't know how to do it. Stevenson has also been held up twice in a maul. It's a pity, he's done a few good things, too, but he's making mistakes that you wouldn't expect from a Super Rugby player.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Geez, and now Sam Nock with a terrible kick. Super boys not showing why they're Super boys.</p>

    <p>Penalty against Wales reversed because Jacobson (7) loses his temper. Ill-discipline is not helping.</p>

    <p>Jordie Barret sent to the bin for a no-arms tackle of a man off the ball. Just when Wales is back to 15 men.</p>

    <p>Wales now leads 17-10 after a good penalty kick. 49 minutes played.</p>

    <p>Dirty, cheap, premeditated shoulder to the face. Could easily have been red. No place for petulant shit like that in the game. Save it for League.</p>

    <p>Agree with the latter. Don't see what was one-eyed about my post though.</p>

    <p>Great pace and footwork from depth. Much better ball protection from NZ. And down to 14 men too.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Could be the turning point in the match.</p>

    <p>Try scored after some good work from the forwards. Mikaele-Tu'u again one of the best NZ forwards this game. Wonder whether his performance is going to result in a spot in the Magpies squad.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Barrett misses the conversion. 17-15 Wales.</p>

    <p>Hmm strange to take Mikaele-Tu'u off the field now and bring Luke Jacobson on.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>You see the effect of that substitution on the scrum immediately a minute later.</p>

    <p>What's up with that commentator constantly apologizing for bad language? We can't even hear it! </p>

    <p>Welsh player sent off for deliberately knocking the ball into touch. One minute and a half to play. NZ to kick the penalty.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Barrett's kick is successful. NZ leads 18-17 with less than a minute to play.</p>

    <p>Penalty miss for Wales when Jones (10) went off crucial.</p>

    <p>And it's all over. NZ beat Wales 18-17. Feeling sorry for Wales, they were better in the first half, but NZ was the best team in the 2nd half and only handling errors kept NZ from scoring more points. </p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Now, having to wait for the results of the remaining games until we know whether NZ makes the semis.</p>
