    I can understand if Harkin had played poorly, but he's been excellent in his outings. A few jitters initially which is understandable in your debut season but from there he's been great. Really hard to understand.

    The Lions & the Canes seem to have this same problem where they'll continue to pick complete journeyman players for year on year, even if a young guy is banging the door down. Same situation with Prinsep and Blackwell.

    Strong start by BOP with three attacking raids so far. Still 0-0 after Higgins makes a crucial turnover.

    Higgins goes through and scores the first.

    Parson’s calling him a superstar in the making.

    You’d love that @Bones

    Apparently a bug going through the Lions so Delany has gone off.

    Nice mauling try there. Probably for the best with JGB at first receiver... A lot of forward runners catching the ball flat footed before trying to push forward. Just like the ABs...

    Wellington in through Apisai and take the lead again.

    Shields apparently into lock. Ropeti comes on at blindside.

    Jeez that’s a shocking call from the ref there. Avei-Collins hard done by.

    If BOP stop dropping the ball they might be able to beat Wellington, assuming they don't raise their game. Lions need to get their hands on some attacking ball

    Gritty first half by Wellington, aided by some pretty abject handling from BOP

    A few players have gone off. Hopefully Preston and Harkin come on soon.

    HT Welly 12 - BOP 8

    First time Savea’s name has been mentioned. He’s a bit of a waste of space.

    Classic Umaga-Jensen not passing it, should have been a try there.
