Long advantage for a.knock on

So close Northland. Canterbury are definitely beatable.
-
Gotta say we had our chances, but failed to take most of them, Canterbury did what was required.

Well played Canterbury, unlucky Northland. Similar to the Wellington vs Hawkes Bay game before. Canterbury rushed out to a lead, Northland came back but weren’t quite good enough to finish the job.

Congratulations to Canterbury, Good season from the Taniwha especially given they have played most of the season without skipper Tom Robinson and Chris Apoua , and losing Moulds and then the 2 Goodhue Boys ..could have been so much better ..
Full credit to Matt Matich for the what he’s bought to this team and doing such an awesome job as skipper -

Oddly, despite being the first time we won 6 in a sesson since 1997, that statement there seems to be there for us every year

while that result was what I expected, I'm pretty pleased with most of what we showed in that 2nd spell, although plenty of odd decisions out there today, not least that last penalty, but TBH, the way our attack has been, I dont think it woulda made alot of difference.
Canterbury was Canterbury, good start and then efficient from there and did the job.
While a few of Mabeys calls we iffy (both ways) thought he was largely pretty good.
Think with a bit more accuracy and smarts, we could have taken that, but it wasnt to be!
I think there are at least a few lads that played today, that probably wont pull on that Cambridge blue strip again, shame they couldnt bow out on a high, but it is what it is.
