BOP v Wellington

BOP by 8

barky1

Hair-brained by Gibson. No explanation from the union around injuries (typical). Such a class squad this year but this backline from 12 onwards seems like they were drawing straws out of a hat.
Seems Gibson is heading to the pile with Greg Smith and Kevin Schuler

Cpt Kumera

Bop 13 plus

ARHS

Wellington by 20. Only hope for BOP is if I tip them to get a hiding. So I am.

Duluth

So has Narawa played 13 at other levels? At NPC level it’s just wing/fullback right?

His defence can be dodgey on the wing. Midfield will be tough

I've also tipped Wellington 17+ in order to guarantee us a win....

Tim

Yellow card all day.

Machpants

Man it's no wonder the canes are going doing the gurgler, when they had their players on this embarrassment of a side, should be in top 3!

Tim

Two low skill teams.

Tim

Awful game. Pity both teams can't be relegated.

Donsteppa

That goal-line dropout rule remains the dumbest thing introduced to rugby. Some idiot rule maker who wanted to work for the NRL

You mean a compulsory invocation of the mercy rule!

EDIT As I write this The Steamers shove Wellington back over their line for another try 14 -05 with the successful conversion

Tim

LOL @ the Hurricanes signing Bird. What an absolute dud.

Higgins

@tim Yet another sign of the ineptness of the WRFU/Hurricanes talent indentification system.

Donsteppa

The irony is that will probably give a us better outcome than a goal-line dropout....

Tim

Ball is clearly out.

Yep, sure enough we now get a lineout inside the 22.

Steven Harris

@higgins 2 weeks in a row Fido & Numia have been owned at scrum time

Stargazer

Lucky Collins. How stupid was that slap back, straight into the hands of the BOP player?

Donsteppa

Poor fitness or work ethic just before half time there. That last Wellington try scorer should not have got around under the posts.
