I got to chat with the ref after the game https://twitter.com/DrivingMaul/status/1160125227092680704?s=20
@DrivingMaul Nice interview mate. Should have asked him how that pass wasn't ruled forward though :winking_face:

Fuck Dwayne Sweeney is lazy. Ball gets thrown at the ground and he's he closest player and he doesn't even go for it. Piss me off.

Sweeney definitely stifles the backline. I want to see Tupaea-Sullivan.
Really happy with this win as I expected Canty to run away with the game with 20 to go. But we showed some ticker to stay in the fight.
Waikato definitely need to improve their defence which was too passive. The scrum problems surprised me, and I wonder if the locks contributed to this. The Waikato team that ended the game had plenty of players under 20 years old so that is a positive for the future.

I went to watch 2 rugby games yesterday for 2 wins so I can't complain.

Feedback from the front row was yes lack of support coming from 2nd row. Sorted at halftime

I fully expected two fairly convincing wins last night in an excellent night of footy on the couch. What i got was a rapidly developing head cold which limited me to one wheat bear and one pinot, and then put me to sleep (thankfully) during the second of two really fucking disappointing results.
Canterbury now get Ta$man at home this Sunday. Can't wait for a bit of afternoon footy and I'll be heading along, but I'm a little worried about being 0-2 after it! Be nice for Ennor and / or Bridge to be available, but i wouldn't be surprised if both are in the AB 23.

Fletcher Smith is from Nelson - born here and went to Nelson College until CBHS poached him.

What a slut. Nelson to CBHS, to Otago and the Highlanders, to Waikato and the Hurricanes.
