Waikato v Wellington

Wind looks pretty strong, the Mooloos will have it in the second half. Wellington lack the discipline to shut Waikato down until the half. They will have one more chance to score after the hooter. Wellington stop the bleeding and hold Waikato out

Promising to see JGB actually starting to look a little bit more like a professional athlete.

He scored the second try running it into the corner! Amazing

I probably wouldn't be commenting on his appearance without actually being sat watching the game....

Chiefs losing a very good player in Mathis. Made some brilliant runs today.

I'm only 23 minutes in but hasn't impressed me so far, nothing ground breaking and man he's a midget for a loose. Looks smaller than that highlanders midget.

TCS is an interesting one for me, would be good to see him get a shot in SR - one player covering the whole backline is pretty bloody useful.

Wasn't disputing you. Just mentioned that he scored, and had to run more than a few metres to do it.

And after a strong second half start from Waikato, Wellington score against the run of play to restore some breathing space at 28-17

Lovely run and offload by Lakai, Clarke sprints away.

Took us 10 or so minutes to emerge from the sheds for the second half. Now we are firing again

Canes4life

Akira goes in. Man I wish he stayed in NZ for super. Has quality skills for a lock. Learnt them from his old man.

canefan

And JGB perfect from the tee

canefan

Lakai making some nice touches.

Canes4life

Lakai is full of running atm. Good to see.

Who is this version of JGB? Playing well

Damn, put the mockers on him. Wellington hot on attack and he comes up with a nothing chip kick that allows Cruden to clear. Cost us over 50m of territory

Canes4life

I think it’s a good time to bring Solomon on. JGB looking tired now after a good game.

FFS guys, let's shelve the chip kicks. Harkin gets one charged down near half way and puts Waikato hot on attack

Just need to keep the ball in hand and kill the clock. Don’t give them an opportunity.

Yeetyaah

Christ the Waikato hookers are mud

And then one scores

Could be a tight finish. Wellington lead by 11 with 8 to go. All those missed conversions won't help Waikato

Canes4life

Harkin has made some poor decisions today. Looks rusty.
