Championship Final: The Bay vs Hawkes

[Higgins]

Dumb play by the black 15. He should have picked up that ball with one foot over the deadball line thus getting a ruling the kick from the blue 10 went dead, scrum back on the home side ten yard mark?

[Chris B.]

@Higgins I think they might have changed that rule?

[Higgins]

Why no yellow car against the yellow nine for carrying on play after the whistle thus denying HB the chance of taking a quick tap penalty. Fantastic touch finder by Tiaan Falcon (x2)

[Canes4life]

Very impressed by Falcon's boot so far. Man he can kick it.

[Canes4life]

@Higgins no need for a yellow card there. Just hand bag stuff.

[Higgins]

@Canes4life It removed any chance of my guys taking the quick tap penalty is what I was alluding to.

[Steven Harris]

Hawkes Bay have got to take their chances , 2 clear cut chances ,none taken ..

[Canes4life]

@Higgins yeah but a card is a bit far fetched. Watching too much of the WC.

[Higgins]

That bloody yellow player batted that ball back over the dead ball line with his hand whilst lying on the ground. Surely some sort of penalty must be given for that?

[Higgins]

The HB lineout has turned to poop tonight with at least two (maybe three) losses on our own throw. Some improvement would be appreciated thanks guys!
Twenty eight minutes gone
BoP 03 - 00 HB

Money ball is to Evans. Do that every time

[Higgins]

@Stockcar86 Bit worried about the midfield as well. They look a bit stodgy so far without Danny Toala.

[Canes4life]

@Higgins What happened to Toala? Has he been injured? Every time I've seen him this year he has been deadly for the Magpies.

[Higgins]

@Canes4life He took a couple of really heavy knocks a couple of games back.

[Canes4life]

@Higgins that's a shame. Deserves to start tonight.

[Steven Harris]

Opportunity number 3 missed by the magpies ..

[Stockcar86]

Get Ili off and Toala on for the second half

[Higgins]

@Steven-Harris Its getting frustrating at these reasonable chances being shelved. Still at least HB supporters know our team have often rolled in heaps of points in the second half. Hopefully the same will happen tonight.
Still three nil two minutes short of half time as the referee whistles up about the tenth or so free kick/penalty against my guys, earning himself a rebuke or two it must be said!

[Stockcar86]

I'd be happy with a 7-6 final score
