        There is something not quite right about the Magpies socks, they are clearly not black and white hoops.

          Brad Weber down, a quick check of the reserve list does not show C. Eaton in the number 20 jersey so rest easy Stockcar 86.

            Instead we have an awesome backup in Fakatava.

              Taulagi's casual-ness pisses me off, he catches a pass and carries it under his arm, and then moves it to one hand just before he approaches defenders.

                Try to Counties after a turn over and 75 metre run with Hawkes Bay hot on attack.

                  Ben May going for an unnecessary miracle off load that his skill level prevents and the end result is a runaway try 70 metres down field

                        Hungus Taulagi probably blew a try then, going on his own with players outside.

                          Now Falcon kicks when a through the hands would have seen an easy try.

                          Grrrrrr!

                            Is it just my imagination that Counties are stretching the off side line to a large degree or do they simply have 15 Usain Bolts in their lineup given the quickness they seem to get up to tackle their opponents?

                              That's good sign, the Counties half back penalized for delaying the put in when his scrum is under big pressure that time, just like the last few scrums. Hopefully our advantage in that area will continue on.

                                And it does continue with Mark Braidwood crashing the Counties tighthead to the ground winning penalty at the very next scrum.

                                  Nice, try from the lineout maul to Kaifa. About time.

                                    I have become a lover of the rolling maul/lineout drive this year for obvious reasons as our guys rumble over for yet another try

                                      Still, I'd rather we didn't bomb those two tries out wide.

                                          That halfback is totally pissing me off. Why did the ref wait so long to penalise him?
