[Tim]

[Stargazer]

Lentjes scores for Otago; result of a mistake of one of the Harbour players. Against the run of play.

7 - 0 Otago

[Stargazer]

Lentjes going off with a leg injury; serious enough to need some support when leaving the field.

[Stargazer]

Half an hour played, and it's still 7 - 0 to Otago. From the little bit I've seen Harbour has had most possession and territory, but can't get through the Otago defence.

[Stargazer]

After tries to Matt Duffie and Patelisio Tomkinson, it's 14 - 7 to Otago at half time. Otago also have a man in the bin.

[Dice]

Otago have scored two tries with Michael Collins in the bin. Otago up 21 - 12.

[Stargazer]

After an unconverted try to Bryn Hall helped Harbour to close the gap, Morris has scored a converted try for Otago.

21 - 12 to Otago after 49 minutes

[Stargazer]

It's still 21 - 12 to Otago.

Harbour have a man in the bin (Cowley-Tuioti).

Edit: if I saw it correctly, Harbour have lost Stevenson to injury.

[Stargazer]

And now Otago have lost their halfback, who's limping off as well.

[Dice]

Karl T still out there in the 71st minute.

[Dice]

Silly from Harbour. Should've taken the 3 and got the bonus point, then you have 6 minutes left to get the ball back to try win it late.

[Stargazer]
