Otago v Wellington
-
We need some ball
-
Man there is some ball movement in this game. Lions strike first through Peter Lakai.
-
Why the did we take Hauiti-Parapara back? He’s so slow at clearing the ball.
-
Siale Lauaki looking very good in the 3 jersey. Scrumming well, defending strongly and very good with ball in hand. I’m glad the Canes have signed him already.
-
Hurley has some nice touches. Disappointing he is such a midget
-
Shit wee have put in some tackles. Got some work to do
-
Hugely impressed with our performance so far. Defence is attitude. We are holding well
-
Otago holding in for sure, too bad Wellington are the best defensive team in the comp. Haven’t let in a try yet this season.
This game will surely open up in the second.
-
We have a lot of grit. Gilbert playing more like a 12 than a 10
-
@Winger said in Otago v Wellington:
PUJ option taking is not good
That is true, he stayed with the Canes far too long.
-
@nostrildamus yeah, it’s been his downfall his whole career. Higgins showed what good decision making looked like at the end of last year. That’s why the Canes need to keep Higgins and let PUJ go.
-
Otago's backline is interesting. Seems TUG, Whaanga, Nareki and Te Hiwi playing all over the place.
-
Never seen a team so dominant but leading only 13-0
-
We have had the ball for about 15 phases. Going to lose well. But decent D
-
@Steven-Harris it will take its toll. And there you go. Brad Shields in.
Higgins already making a difference to the Lions attack with two touches.
-
@Canes4life Lions physicality has been outstanding
-
@Steven-Harris yeah pretty impressive. The defensive system they’ve built has been second to none.
-
Lions just look more physically imposing
