[Chris]

Jack Sexton on loan from Canterbury.

[frugby]

Richard Judd at 10, with Hawera at 15 is quite fun.

[Bovidae]

BOP have included some of their U20 players in the reserves, and a 6:2 split.

[frugby]

The Stags might get up here...

[Duluth]

Well that looked simple

[Duluth]

Might be a thrashing. BOP with all the ball

10-0 after 13

[KiwiPie]

Southland very passive on defence so far. We're a very 2nd/3rd string team so we need to close it out

[KiwiPie]

Well we're cocking this up. Intercept and now we're level at 10-10. 2 tries apiece and no conversions

[Stargazer]

What the heck, haha. After 30 minutes, Southland bring on all their subs!

[KiwiPie]

And Southland just subbed on the bench after 30 minutes. Interesting tactic!

[Stargazer]

Southland looks really fired up!

[Nepia]

BoP assistant coach has a great name.

[KiwiPie]

That was not a forward pass and ref was in no position to call it

[KiwiPie]

I hate it when the defensive line is retreating and all offside and the ref calls nothing.

[KiwiPie]

If a team subs the whole bench after 30 are they allowed to roll on 3 of the originals after 70?

[Stargazer]

Surely they're going to check that tackle on Fine? That looked awful.

Edit: checking it now. Not as bad as it seemed at first.

[KiwiPie]

@Stargazer yeah it did look bad in real time. Stupid floaty pass to give the intercept. Dumb play all night by the Bay
