Brisbane Global 10s

[Stargazer]

Converted by Trainor and the Blues lead 7 to 0. Samoa lost a man to the bin before that try.

[Stargazer]

Try Ambrose Curtis. Defence is optional for Samoa and the Blues take advantage.

[Stargazer]

No arms tackle from Declan O'Donnel: YC

[Stargazer]

It's half time and the Blues lead 14 to nil. Blues much better than in first game.

[KiwiMurph]

What kind of messed up tournament has both of these wearing blue?

Hoffman is a woeful ref.

[Stargazer]

Try Tila Mealoi for Samoa. Converted. 14 - 7 Blues

[Stargazer]

Another try to Samoa scored by Lucky Palamo. It's 14 all.

[Stargazer]

Another Blues player sent to the bin for a late tackle.
Samoa score a penalty goal and now lead 17 to 14.

[Stargazer]

Blues playing with 10 players while they had a man in the bin ...
Samoa get another shot at goal .. and the kick is good: 20-14 Samoa.

[Stargazer]

Another penalty and Samoa is in again. The conversion is good and it's full time. Samoa win 27 to 14.

After a good first half, the Blues have given it away with sloppy play and ill-discipline.

[KiwiMurph]

Woeful 2nd half from the Blues. No injuries is the real key though.

[Stargazer]

Try to Dillon Hunt for the Highlanders. Not converted. 5-0

[Stargazer]

Try to the Highlanders disallowed because they had 11 players on the field!

[KiwiMurph]

NMS looks sharp all things considered.

[Stargazer]

Penalty goal to the Highlanders and they lead 8 to 0 at half time.

[Stargazer]

Try Matt Faddes. Marty Banks with a horror kick. 13-0 Highlanders

[Stargazer]

Finally, the Canes are on the board after a good team try by NMS.
The conversion attempt goes wide. 13 - 5 Highlanders

[Stargazer]

Full time: Highlanders 13 to Hurricanes 5.

There's no way Jordie was concieved naturally. Blatently a clone of Beauden.

I'm not embarrassed to say I get a massive chubby just thinking about the BB10 and JB12 backline for the Canes this year.

Mate was at a party in the Naki with him last weekend (Logan Crowley's 21st) and Jordie said he's been told by the coaches he'll playing fullback this year.

Damn. I don't really like him there, but I guess they need a replacement for Marshall. Woodward has gone too hasn't he?

At any rate, I'm very excited about the Canes this season, especially with NMS back and Jordie B.

I actually enjoyed day one of the tens a lot more than I expected.
