Exciting game this!

The stadium really supports good open rugby being played. Good to watch, bet the players love it. Like playing hockey on turf instead of grass

[Chris]

For all the good things Chase Titia does play breaks down around him alot too many times momentum is lost.

Ben may is useless

[Toddy]

Looked like a knock on.

[gt12]

That’s a shit decision.

Always has been. If he wasn't a gym junky he'd never have been a prop. Easy to use strength against inferior opposition, but technical limitations show up very quickly at this level.

Not clear enough on my 4K TV

[Stargazer]

The problem is the "clear and obvious" bit that is necessary to overrule the on-field decision. It may have been a knock-on, but I don't think it was clear and obvious. So the on-field decision (try) stands.

[Toddy]

That's one of the reasons why he isn't off to the world cup.

I'll do the Ken Laban annouincement - The try was scored by Ash Dixon (Napier Tech Old Boys)

Awful throw from Riccitelli.

How the hell is Tiatia starting a Super Rugby game?

Worse than Collins.

More physical talent.

[Canes4life]

Fuck this forward pack is average. Can't even do the basics properly.

Fixed. 😉

[Bones]

Ben Smith with the shit offload. If that was Tiatia that would be a reason why he's not an AB...

[Tim]

Where's Coles? Riccitelli is awful.

[Canes4life]

How many times have we fluffed it in the red zone this year. These coaches are out of their depth.

[Machpants]

Well we'd be one point behind if we took the kicks

Another embarrassing performance by the canes

Wonder if he thought he was playing in Black.

I hope he's not passing it to gold when he's playing in Black...
