I reckon I would have given that.

Ball went forward in ruck then not grounded

No Quarter

Cheap shot on Shields.

I remember 2000 like it was yesterday. One of the greatest nights of my life.

Relief more than jubilation.

Wellington are the Championship winners. Congrats Lions fans! Based on the whole season, no team deserved it more! Commiserations to the Steamers.

The Hurricanes have a team in the Premiership again!

Steamers almost grabbed it. Wellington lacked fluency but their quality won out in the end. The KFCs on coach!

Chris Gibbes > Chris Boyd

Has Thomas Umaga-Jensen been signed by the Canes? He is someone the Chiefs should be interested in.

So near but so far.

Well done to Wellington for having the legs in the last 20.

One heck of a season. The advantage of bringing back an old pro like Delany paid huge dividends.

Wish the AB’s had picked Savea, he’d have been on a plane rather than under the posts in extra time

I was watching the game in the US with a group of Cantabs. Only 2 of us were supporting Wellington and neither of us were from there.

Our bench went well I thought. Relieved more than anything at the final whistle that we are going back up to the top tier.

Well done Welly. Get to play with the big boys (and Auckland) again now.

59-45!

Not a fan of 10-man defence orientated rugby myself but whatever floats peoples boats.
