Wellington v Taranaki

[KiwiMurph]

Quite amazing how Billy Proctor got signed to a 5 year Super Rugby contract out of school considering he's a midfielder who isn't a great ball runner and can't distribute.

[Winger]

31-18. Another Taranaki try

[Winger]

Higgins replaces PUJ. 61 minutes gone

PUJ was playing well

[Winger]

Love replaces CGB. 62 minutes and 2nd water break

[Toddy]

Gotta be a red to Aumua there. Wasn't that a shoulder to the head.

[antipodean]

Aumua showing why he isn't considered for the All Blacks. Same "wrap" Koroibete had.

Lucky yellow. After a great game too

[Toddy]

That's a red clear as day. What a dirty fucker. Hopefully he's cited and cops a decent ban.

Should’ve been a red

He isn't a dirty player. But agree this was not good

[Toddy]

@Winger that's his second shoulder to a players head this season.

OK missed the first one.

[Winger]

31-18 with 11 to go

[antipodean]

Ref deserved that falcon. Terrible positioning.

[KiwiMurph]

Why would you kick there.

[Toddy]

Pretty sure the Taranaki physio just ran onto the field and told their no 7 to go down.

He shook it off pretty well considering. That pass had some force behind it.

Taranaki with a glimmer of hope.

31 - 25 with a minute to play.

[Winger]

31-25 79 minutes

[Winger]

Silly forwrad pass by Taranaki

[Winger]

Very good game. Massive improvement by Wellington. But just hung on towards the end.
