Otago vs Waikato (Ranfurly Shield)

@Yeetyaah this game should have been way closer than the final score would suggest, especially if the official had been consistent..seen this picture before , I thought the Turbos got stitched up in their shield challenge earlier in the comp and it’s so crucial in close games..
The 2 wingers Nareki and Koroi were bloody outstanding, both great on their feet and superb kicking games...
Waikato pack will be spewing with the game management behind the scrum..real shame because Tupaea looks bloody good..
I think next year could be Waikato’s year.. -

I said this last year after they won the Mickey Mouse final
. Agree with you though. Koroi and Nareki were unreal. Waikato forwards were good. Back 3 defence was shit. Tupaea was a bit quieter than usual. -

I know I am biased here, but I really found the calls of the ref and touchies perplexing throughout this match. Waikato did not help themselves with constant errors - but should have been in the match
It's a Shield game. That's why they are hard to win. You can find bizarre reffing calls favouring the holders going back decades.

DRIVE IT WAIKATO!!!!
It should be easy
Massive choke if you don't win
This is Waikato we are talking about. They lose to choppers like Hawkes and run Ta$man close. No method

@Bones Are you really surprised? Despite him being in the AB7s squad for a couple of years now?
Yeah, he's never looked express. Wasn't sure if he was going to crack 15s either but looks like he's having a good season?
