If we lose this I’m blaming Connor for dropping an easy pass.
A shit pass from TJP wasn't it? He threw a few of those tonight but was very good otherwise.

Excellent game
TJ was at his best. Morgan had easily his best game for Wellington (except for the missed penalty).
Lakai is class. And thank god that Numia was able to stay on for the whole match.
HB were just unlucky to hit Wellington where the team played their best game so far this year. I hoped they had it in them but had my doubts. Yet they almost won at the end.

Fuccck yes boys. What a performance.
Commiserations to Hawkes Bay.
Hope we can hold onto it for the summer.

Standout for me was Peter Lakai. That kid is built different.

Bugger.
Apikotoa's yellow has cost us the Shield.
Not much separating the teams, but the team with the best decision-making won the game.
Should have stopped going for line-outs when they didn't work.
Congrats Wellington. Keep it until we meet you next year in Wellington.
Now I'm going to sulk.

Well done Wellington at least we lost to a team that performed well.
Certain team's I hate losing too because of rivalries with mates who are from there. I don't have any with Wellington, mainly because I don't know their four supporters personally. #sourgrapes

He had a great game. But he's class every week I've seen him start for Wellington. He's better than (or at least as good as) Savea at the same age. Future AB. Maybe as a 7.

That was pretty fucking bad! Doing Foley level delaying, and then fucking it up!
Agree. But he got all the rest over and always takes some time before he kicks. An area that was a weakness during SRP and starting this years NPC. And overall his line kicking was much better than it has been. So I can take one miss that didn't cost us the game

Amazing Shield run by the Magpies. Good intense game and I’m a happy that a maul try didn’t end the game….
Thought Perenara was very influential. the odd mistake aside I thought he was doing a hell of a lot to keep the Lions in the game and win it.
Nothing like a Shield change.

Savea also had an excellent game. I didn't think he'd have anything left when he came back. But he was very busy tonight
