Otago played their best match of the season but fell just a wee bit short. Great game to watch. I like Canty's young halfback

BOP have our measure. Looks like we have our QF in Rotorua against them although we could have to go to Wellington if this hiding gets worse

Really scrappy first 10 minutes with heaps of errors by both sides, though Orc scrum is already dominating.

Commentators keep talking about all those All Blacks in the Auckland pack...

I guess they're including Paddy T in that, which must be nice for his mum.

Harbour with zero structure. Relying entirely on one out individualism.

Tough call on Li there. One roll and placing the ball is usually fine

As soon as they were into the 22 they looked like they wouldn't be stopped.

Maybe... but it's fair. Not a malicious act yet it placed a player in danger,.


I was listening to the ref talking about a player's bad language earlier... I gather it's Akira running his mouth off again?

I remember years ago when Yachvili saved a certain try against England by sliding in with his feet. I'm not necessarily arguing against this change in direction but we are reaching the point that once a ball carrier starts to go down towards the tryline, he is untouchable.
