Wellington v Canterbury

[mikey07]

@canes4life They’ve still won games when it came down to it unlike us.

Yes I also hope so.

[Tim]

Canterbury are paying $2.23 at the TAB for the win. I know they are poorly coached, and their backline is decidedly average, but that seems crazy to me.

[Chris]

Wellington by 10 I reckon, until we get rid of the Muppett coaches.Who have really had no game plan , direction and selections and recruitment have been poor,And Get back a bit of pride in the jersey Canterbury will struggle.

10-0 Wellington after 5mins

Messy work from Romano in the lead up to the try

[Tim]

Canterbury certainly look pedestrian.

[Tim]

Fergus Burke got skinned by Coles.

[Stargazer]

That's a great try from McKay! Excellent chip kick from Burke, too.

[Tim]

Game has changed all right. Canterbury getting over the advantage line.

[Duluth]

First 20mins looked easy for Wellington. Then the Cantabs controlled possession in the next 20 and worked their way back into it

Two even but flawed teams

The Bus is looking good after his break.

More BS from Williams. If that was a YC so was Romano's.

[mikey07]

@bovidae I also wonder how long you have to jackal over the ball to win the penalty Kirifi was there on the ball for at least 5 seconds.

[Stargazer]

Great decision-making there from Drummond.

[mikey07]

Annddd in typical Wellington fashion we start to roll over.

[Stargazer]

@mikey07 Still plenty of time.

[mikey07]

@stargazer after their performances this year I have no faith in them.

As dour and uninspiring as Blackadder only 10 times worse. What idiots reappointed them?

[mikey07]

Canterbury doing a good job of cleaning the Wellington players out of the ruck and continuing to hold him after the ruck.

[Tim]

Wellington really need to find some props who can scrum.
