Brisbane Global 10s

[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.

[Stargazer]

Chiefs are going very well against the, thus far, unbeaten Wild Knights.

It's 21 to 0 to the Chiefs at half time.

[Stargazer]

Luke Jacobson scores the fourth try and it's 26 to 0.

[Stargazer]

Alaimano scores the fifth. The Wild Knights haven't turned up yet. Too easy.

33-0 Chiefs

[Stargazer]

The commentators were just talking about the temperature at the stadium. Apparently, it's 34 degrees in the shadow. If they are considering organising a 10s tourney next year again, should it really be held in Brisbane. These conditions are insane!

[Stargazer]

Full time: Chiefs 33 to Wild Knights 5.

Chiefs are through to the quarter finals (top of their pool?).

[Bovidae]

So the Chiefs make the QFs in the end with that win. A nice touch in the pre-game huddle when the call was "Wax".

[Frye]

It was always a massive risk to play this tournament in Brisbane at the height of summer.

Send the state house 9s back across the ditch and host it at Eden Park.

[Stargazer]

Great team try scored by Samoa's Mealoi! That's the kind of play you want to see in these games!

[Stargazer]

The pro-Reds reffing continues ...

[Stargazer]

Bridge scores for the Saders: 5 - 0.

Sydney had been hotter than Brisbane the last two days ....
