Rebels v Pasifika

Kirwan

Huge defence, they survive to half time

14-10

African Monkey

MP defending well towards the end of that half although I thought the Rebels scored at the end there. Need to show more patience with ball in hand.

Kirwan

Evenly matched teams, Rebels slightly better across the board.

Quite a lot of miracle balls that aren’t necessary, especially how fast their 9 clears the ball.

Bovidae

The Rebels will be using their maul a lot until MP prove they can stop them.

MP need to avoid giving the Rebels those opportunities.

Kirwan

Be nice if the ref would keep the Rebels on side.

Kirwan

Harsh stat on the rebels winger, try scoring drought.

Kirwan

Man on the ball? Not supporting his body weight at all.

Kirwan

Great breakout from MP, and earn a good try.

Grooter

Yes Pole my man from Otago

14-17

Kirwan

If the game stays loose, suits MP

Kirwan

Nice try for Hodge, after a terrible bounce from a strip.

Kirwan

Slow mo the teammates running in to celebrate looked like a shampoo ad.

21-17

Kirwan

Ref is letting the rebels defend the breakdown with a lot more leniency than MP.

Kirwan

Lol, tin arse try. Another lucky bounce, but did well to score

Kirwan

26-17

Kirwan

MP make great metres in the tackle

Kirwan

Game petering out or I’m falling asleep, one of the two.

Kirwan

Oh no! Stripped
