      Might be an idea to get Ruru on for leadership.

        Uncontested scrums because Canterbury has lost both hookers to injury.

        Also down to 14 as no subs available.

        Scrap that, I'm wrong there is a sub on.

        Really? I thought if you make it go uncontested you have to lose a player?

            Try Sosene-Faegai! Close to the posts, so that should be converted. First half of extra time over.

                @hydro11 They're still at 14. It was a substitution for another player.

                        @anonymous Stupid rule, btw. Should be allowed to have 15 players on the park.

                          Nonsense. If you elect to go uncontested scrums, you should lose a player.

                            @antipodean They didn't elect it. They lost two hookers to injury and then the rules say uncontested scrums, because there isn't a hooker on the field. It wasn't a tactical decision.

                              Nah, great rule because you made the scrums go uncontested. Otherwise if you are getting done in the scrums you take off both hookers and get a huge advantage.

                                  @stargazer Yeah, but the rule has to be this way cause the officials can't tell if it's because of injury or "injury".

                                      Yes but history tells us that if rules can be exploited, they will be. It's like with Pocock and the quick conversion means you can't go to the TMO.

                                        Anyway, for those without tv coverage. Auckland has scored and it's now 40 - 33 to Acukland with 5 and a half minutes to go.

                                          Immaterial. You can fake injuries.
