Hawke's Bay v Tasman

[Nepia]

We're screwed now, we are unable to handle Faigaanuku.

[taniwharugby]

Nice try!

[Steven Harris]

Flanders about the best forward on the paddock

[Nepia]

Tiatia managed to not fuck it up too. (See I give him credit when warranted).

[Steven Harris]

That’s a thing of beauty..Flanders again

[Nepia]

They got Reece back as well??? Typical.

[Steven Harris]

I reckon it’s time to bring Fakatava on , can play as an extra loose forwards

[antipodean]

This try looks like it will stand.

That's harsh - I reckon that was knocked on, onto the knee which he regathered.

[Grooter]

Go Folau!

[taniwharugby]

@antipodean dunno, I think it had to touch his forearm, but youndidnt see it, so try should have stood...

[Nepia]

How on earth are Havilli's arms so skinny for a rugby player who's Tongan?

[taniwharugby]

That's his 2nd relatively easy one?

[Nepia]

The weather looks as bad there as it is in Sydney today. Palmy like.

[Nepia]

Ugh, too much fluffing at the scrum and Ta$man win the penalty.

[taniwharugby]

Looks like Ta$man have the wind by the sheets of rain?

Cmon HB

[antipodean]

That was some good defence. Maul shouldn't have rolled like it did.

[taniwharugby]

Reece shoulda been pinged there

[taniwharugby]

Kereru-Symes been having a crack last few rucks and finally got one

[Nepia]

Not sure why we're kicking it when we've had no ball for ages - but it worked out for us.

[taniwharugby]

Shouldn't that be a penalty?

Knock on, player in front played it.
