Moana 7 - 14 ahead, and playing better than the Tahs, for whom there's nothing at stake.

[Canes4life]

Outstanding try by MP. 7-19 with the kick to come.

[NTA]

This is some bizarre officiating

[African Monkey]

Lol and the Waratahs are allowed back in it off the back of 2 obstructions.

I tell you what, yes they lose every game, but there's never a dull moment when Moana play. Always an entertaining watch.

[antipodean]

Not going to lie; did not expect this half time score.

[Chris]

It should be 21-7 if you take away the BS hometown Hannigan try.
Loved the Refs BS explanation to the MP Captain.

[Stargazer]

Yussssssssssssssssss, another MP try. Leali'ifano still showing some speed.

[Stargazer]

14 - 28 MP

You see dummy runners like that in nearly every play. Go look at one of MP's first tries: number 12 straight into a defender

[NTA]

Tahs haven't turned up mentally. Disruptions to the lineup not helping and the coaches need to take blame for that

[Stargazer]

Forward pass?

[Tim]

It'd be a marginal one.

[Stargazer]

Apparently, it's okay. Miracle Faiilagi scoring another one. This is fun.

14 - 33 MP

[Derpus]

Donaldson is the worst fly half we've had since Halangahu - if not ever.

[Tim]

@Derpus Diabolical.

Hooper should've retired last year.

[Stargazer]

I really don't want this to become another last-minute MP loss.

[Derpus]

Dudes only Wallaby cap will be 4 minutes and missing a basic kick to seal a loss to Italy.

[Stargazer]

Come on MP, another try makes it a bonus point win.

[Stargazer]

Havili should not have kicked that.
