Hawke's Bay v Otago (Ranfurly Shield)
-
How many times are we going to open them up and not convert!?
@kiwiwomble yes alot of chances gone begging but all this tackling will take its toll too.
-
Otago are going to regret not taking their chances

So does all the running and no reward though
-
HB with first real foray into the 22 and score, poor defence line.
-
Faddes is wasted out wide
-
Pretty impressive from Hawkes Bay , under the pump for most of the half ,but 2 x opportunities offered up both taken
-
Is there fake crowd noise? Sounds like Eden park when the bay make a break

Josh Dickson has been very average this year.
Otago are pretty bad for a super rugby base with a uni and a polytech ...

Not enough rugby players coming out of higher education, and not enough of them who care about doing that and playing footy.

I hope there is a change of ref at half time, this one has already eaten all the match day pies, he will be gassed shortly.

@gt12 Crusaders use Lincoln well.
They do, but I think they have the whole package set up well to add value while training to hopefully play for Canterbury and the Saders. So, Otago has that as something to add, but I guess my point is that the University itself doesn’t provide much of a pathway.

Anyone see vahaakolo get up just then!? Looks like he could play front row but just did one of those backwards handstand pop onto your feet things!

In wrestling, that is called a kip-up
My favorite wrestler, Orange Cassidy, does it with his hands in his pockets

@kiwimurph those 2 are a big loss for Otago.

I cant say shit either because we had the option of buying near Canterbury or Dunedin. It was a relatively easy choice thinking about travel access, schools, activities, education, and the cost was similar.
So, if you are an outsider who isn’t planning to be a huge party-er at school, I can see why even if the landers have it all straight up, they’ll still struggle to get players over the Saders and others.

There's no way we should be up by 7 at halftime. What a weird half of rugby.
Not trying to curse you (honest
) , but after been under the pump for most of first half, I think you guys looked more dangerous with ball in hand.
