Helluva game at Boyd Park. Stoked to be able to get to a Heartland grand final. Great vibe in the crowd.

@Yeetyaah Good stuff. I did see a guy in the crowd wearing a Waikato jersey.

KC up by 5, 3 and a half minutes to go and they try running it from their own 22, only to knock it on.

Madness 🤯

[Gunner]

Drama.

WC score with 30 seconds to play to lock it up at 34 all, the kick from a handy angle hits the upright, so extra time it is.

[Gunner]

Gee what a game.

Congrats King Country
