SF: Canterbury v Hawkes Bay

[NTA]

Canterbury matching marching towards another final host gig.

Boring.

Christie makes the right call to go for the scrum next to the posts.

Try time.

29-14 Good Guys

That’s game you would think. A few opportunist tries from the Canterbury and then kicking into gear dominating the last 5 or so mins and get a well worked try on the board.

Tough for HB. Almost their own worst enemy

Well looks that way now doesn't it hopefully Tony brown or Josh Kronfield visit the Otago lads this week and give them a motivational speech for the ages

[Landers92]

That earlier bomber try from HB early in the second half has proved to be massive. Could have been a completely different game

[hikastags]

Real shame Zach Gallagher is heading overseas

[Grooter]

I'm gonna say it McLeod has won me over lately although is there a world where he would actually start ahead of Havili in super?

[Steven Harris]

Unfortunately we are seeing Fakatava’s weakness exposed his high kick game is very average

[zedsdeadbaby]

Moving to blindside has been the making of Gallagher.

Agree @Steven-Harris on Fakatava, it’s why he can’t play tests for mine - and another bombed kick there

[ACT Crusader]

Try time.

Some players have played themselves to a standstill.

Folau’s box kick was in slow motion!

[Grooter]

It's a shame George Bell won't be playing in the grand final isn't it, don't know why Jase doesn't take Slater or J Taylor as cover to in the interim

[Steven Harris]

@zedsdeadbaby even Richard Judds high kicks were on point last night even though they lost most of those contestables

Do you know that for sure? Could be huge if so

@Landers92 ABs leave on Wednesday, so him and Darry will be out.

Played his heart out for 65 odd mins leading up to that. Probably shouldn’t have been on. Him and Flanders were carrying Hawkes Bay tonight

I’ve already sent an email to Jase now that we are certainties for the final.

[Landers92]

This Ripley has looked handy since coming on

[Steven Harris]

@Landers92 certainly was’nt being critical of his efforts on the field tonight but just highlighting an area of his game that’s a weakness that he will have to rectify moving forward
He’s a superb player when he’s probing or working in with his forwards with ball in hand

Is Manumaua Letiu injured?
