Defence optional in this game.

Certainly seems to be although that last Taranaki try was a beaut one

In case anyone needs to know the score it is Canterbury 38 - 35 Taranaki after 56 minutes

[Higgins]

Make that 38 all after 57 minutes after another M McKenzie penalty

[Stargazer]

If Taranaki wins the Shield tonight, they already have a challenge on Wednesday. From Manawatu. Whoever wins that game, keeps the Shield until next season.

You beauty!!! Naki in 43 - 38

[Rembrandt]

What a kick! 45 - 38. 10 remaining

[Stargazer]

Wow, Taranaki! 8 minutes to go and they lead 52 to 38. Surely, Canterbury can't come back from this?

[Nepia]

52-38 now.

Edit: Dolt, Stargazer beat me to it.

Naki have really piled in at the breakdown in the last 10 minutes. Excellent work.

Game over and the Shield gets a holiday away

WTF I decided it was over when Canterbury went ahead 38 whatever just after the half!

@taniwharugby

I think Canterbury thought that too.

[taniwharugby]

[Rembrandt]

Outstanding!

Wow, that was a pathetic display of defence by Wainui for the first try. Looks like Taranaki are going to get taught a lesson. Canterbury waltzing through the midfield at will.

If only I'd put money on it.

[westcoastie]

Home game for the Naki vs Manawatu this Wednesday 11th.

[ACT Crusader]

Poo get their chance next week

[Stargazer]

There are still a few Naki-Crusaders without contract. I think they made a good case for themselves! McKenzie, Mataele, Wainui.
