Final score

[Bovidae]

A sneaky Waikato try from a Smith kick.

A sideline conv for 21-5 lead.

[Stargazer]

The full time scores of today's preseason games:

Canterbury 19 - 17 Ta$man
Bay of Plenty 33 - 40 Counties Manukau
Waikato 21 - 10 Taranaki

Still chasing more info about tomorrow's games (team lists, livestreaming).

[Bovidae]

Based on the comms and who I could recognise other 2nd half replacements were:

Front row - Hetet, Dyer and Moli? Maybe Milnes if he has the same hairstyle as Moli.
Burr and Thompson came on at lock.
Nankivell at loose forward. Plus another player.
They said Sinkinson scored the last Waikato try. @OleOleOle?

[Canes4life]

@Stargazer I've posted the Wellington team to play Manawatu in the Lions thread if you are interested.

[Stargazer]

@Canes4life Yep, have seen the line-up! Good looking team; a mix of experience and new faces.
Will be interesting to see how they go, tomorrow.

[OleOleOle]

@Bovidae I think it was Moli...interesting beacuse I don't think he played club.

I think the other loose forward may have been Mua.

And I think you are correct re Sinkinson

[Canes4life]

@Stargazer yeah that front row looks inexperienced so it will be interesting to see how they hold up.

Also does anyone know when the Waikato squad will be named?

[Stargazer]

Southland squad to play Otago tomorrow in Invercargill. It looks like there will be no livestream.

That's why I was unsure about Moli. Mua makes sense.

Sinkinson looked like Coombes-Fabling from that distance.

@Canes4life Tuesday.

[Canes4life]

@Bovidae talk about leaving it to the last minute.

@Stargazer I see my good Ponsonby boy Freedom Vaha'akolo scored a hatrick today. Otago might have to be my 'other team' this season.

Cane also reveals he will be available for the Bay of Plenty against Taranaki next weekend in the opening round of Mitre 10 Cup. The ABs are likely to be available for the first two rounds before heading into camp.
