Is Kane Hames in the Canterbury squad or something?

@Bovidae An absolute clown.

Tom Christie deserves Oscar.

Both should have got a yellow card

Yep, B/S Christie didn't get a sanction. The ref was watching the whole thing too.

[Steven Harris]

@Nepia thats what pissed me off, Gibson was alerting the official to it and he did nothing about it and was never gonna pinge Christie

[Steven Harris]

High tackle missed on Funaki 🤷🏻‍♂️

[KiwiMurph]

Good rugby there.

Auckland attack and then Harmon with the turnover.

[Steven Harris]

Superb D from Auckland ..

[KiwiMurph]

Penalty try yellow card coming up

[Steven Harris]

@KiwiMurph , what was he thinking ..?, been good up until then

[Duluth]

Bridge

[Steven Harris]

To be honest its crap rule ..Tupaea is out of rugby for 3 months for getting cleaned out by a dog act and both these infractions are both YCs
Everything thats wrong with rugby right there

[KiwiMurph]

George Bridge conspiring not to score.

A story as old as time.

[African Monkey]

Plummer needs to go into halfback and box.

[Donsteppa]

An awful play from Drummond, but it works out for Canterbury in the end.

[Steven Harris]

Hard enough to beat this mob with 15 on 15 , but when you give up 2 YCs ..Mountain just got higher..

[KiwiMurph]

I think that's the game.

Not very smart for Auckland to kick to touch in my opinion - Cantebrury has been launching very well from lineouts.

[Bovidae]

TJ and Hames are obviously joined at the hip at Sky. Painful to listen to, even as a neutral.

[Duluth]

Plummer needs to put more pressure on the ref. The 50/50’s are going one way (not talking about the 2nd YC)

8-2 penalty count so far

[Chris]

Hartford having a tidy game for his 2nd start has good vision for space out wide and has kicked well.

No, they weren't. That's why Swain got cited. He should have received a red card.

Good start

Thought Auckland were all over us in the first 10 minutes. Forcing us into errors.

Then we started to play a little better field possession and our set piece started to hum.

Some of these rugby players need to watch less league because I swear it’s their immediate reaction to knock the ball out when it’s in the ingoal area, even though it’s been an illegal play for eons.
