    @nepia You can just imagine what Stargazer is doing right now! The try was beautiful to watch.

    Putting my fingers in my ears because the missus was cheering so loud! Was an awesome try!

      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.

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

        I was vocally involved in providing assistance to the two players involved as to what they should have done but have calmed down somewhat since then.
        Not so pleased to discover my hipflask, that I accidentally forgot to remove from my back pocket before going into Westpac Stadium on Friday night, is still empty so will have to settle for a chocolate biscuit and a cup of tea for my half time refreshment

          To me it looked like he was too scared to put it in.

              Oh dear, that replacement Counties loosehead sure gave Ben May a workover at that scrum

                Try to Counties after an abysmal start to the 2nd half by the Magpies.

                    Laban keeps mistaking Cardiff Vaega as Leger.

                          Is there anyone else who can kick conversions?

                            To be fair all the three tries have been scored widesh and the sea breeze does seem to be a bit stronger than usual.

                              Counties in again. Just a lot of poor defence from the Magpies.

                                Gees they are struggling at the moment, hopefully the subs can give them a lift.

                                  A 20 metre lineout drive is a thing of beauty, at least it is whem your team is the one doing it. Replacement halfback Fakatava scores as a result of that

                                      Take the shot, we already have the four try bonus

                                        On second thought another lineout drive try is an appealing prospect, or was until a poor throw in by the replacement hooker

                                          22 all, really should have gone for the penalty, although with the way Falcon is kicking the line out was probably the percentage play.
