North Harbour v Tasman

[KiwiMurph]

@Duluth yep late change. Page looks more comfortable on the wing than centre.

[Steven Harris]

@Duluth was listening to the radio commentary..Parsons said that exactly

[Dice]

Very good half by Harbour.

Can they hold on? I think it'll depend on if Harbour can starve Ta$man of ball again.

[KiwiMurph]

@Dice Ta$man will have second half wind

[Chris B.]

Ta$man's worst half of the season, so far.

They've turned Havili's counter-attack over several times, so far and the handful of promising opportunities have been stymied by clumsy play.

Need to improve markedly in the 2nd 40.

Harbour pack apparently 100kgs heavier than Ta$man's!!!

I was surprised by the numbers, but I think it's wrong. No way are Harbour averaging 121kg per man.

[Steven Harris]

@Chris-B Harbour doing very well at the breakdown ..

[Dice]

Ta$man have 13 men on the field and Harbour are going for 3. Dumb.

[Dice]

Now Ta$man get an intercept try. Nice one Harbour.

[KiwiMurph]

And thats why Harbour are last.

[KiwiPie]

What are Harbour doing here? How can they dominate so much and only be 2 points ahead? What a bizarre game

[KiwiMurph]

Telea under the high ball is no good.

[KiwiPie]

@KiwiMurph he has an unusual technique of trying to catch it with his face

[KiwiMurph]

David Havili has been well contained

[Dice]

Important kick by Gatland. Ta$man now have to score 3 times to win.

[Duluth]

Smashed

40 points to NH

Ta$man’s score inflated by those two intercepts

[Dice]

Impressive performance by Harbour.

I'd say that's the performance of the M10 so far. This came out of nowhere.

[Tim]

Damn, how were the Harbour forwards?

Very good.

If ever a final score line has flattered a losing team , you have just seen it.. Ta$man have come 2nd by the distance of a rugby field ..and I have to agree with the commentators .. Ta$man have been under the pump for the whole 80 minutes , and that’s been the difference between Harbour and any team that’s played Ta$man ..full credit to Harbour , commiserations to Ta$man
