Championship Semi: Hawke's Bay v Taranaki

[KiwiMurph]

Fakatava better be on the AB radar next year.

[Nepia]

Dixon in again, 36-11 to the Pies, with kick to come. How did MMT not score?

[taniwharugby]

@KiwiMurph yeah I'm not in that camp, not due to his play, but due to him not being a Kiwi, through the school thing...

How did MMT not get that?

I think we talked about this in another thread and he isn’t eligible

[Kiwiwomble]

@taniwharugby looked like he got over to me, didn’t hear a whistle so just play it say and set it up I guess

At least he came here as a school kid unlike Frizell

Will have to call him Tongan Fakatava when he makes the ABs.

Next year isn't he? The three year qualification is still currently in force I thought?

He's on fire today!

[KiwiMurph]

Naki don't get nearly enough ball to Kneepkins

[taniwharugby]

@Nepia well same as Sivi, Tamanivalu and others

[Bones]

Perofeta. Runs himself, runs himself, kicks it away.

[Kiwiwomble]

Shit fakatava being shit

[Nepia]

Fakatava goes 80 metres to score. MoTM already.

45-11.

Yeah, after about 20 mins the Magpies decided to stop letting him look like DC.

[Billsy111]

Someone give Tom Parsons a Super Rugby contract. He bloody well deserves one.

You can see (like Mounga I guess) that maybe they still have that hangover from school days where they carved up all on their own.

[KiwiMurph]

Knowing Perofeta's injury history he'll be out for 6 months.

[taniwharugby]

very short penalty advantage there for HB

Yep, and we barely even advanced even 10 metres forward - we just went sideways.
