Wellington v Taranaki

[Canes4life]

@Higgins open side, I’ve seen him play there a couple of times and he’s been very solid. Just as good as 8 IMO.

It would surprise me if Aumua isn't cited. That should have been a bright red.

Good first hour from Wellington, but let Taranaki back into the game in the last 20 minutes, allowing them to grab a losing bonus point. Only 6 points separating the teams after the final whistle.

I like the look of Peter Lakai. He and Cooper Flanders (at openside) formed a great 7-8 combo for the Hurricanes U20s. I 'd like to see that combo in the senior team in the future (assuming both develop well).

I really wonder what happened to the Taranaki squad that won every game, last year. Can't just be missing Perofeta.

@Toddy said in Wellington v Taranaki:

That's a red clear as day. What a dirty fucker. Hopefully he's cited and cops a decent ban.

He is prone to that shit.
Not the first time he has put in a cheap shot like that.

@Chris Yep, he was cited after the Highlanders v Hurricanes game, this year, and got a 3 week suspension for smashing his shoulder into Gareth Evans' face.
