Southland v The Bay

[Stargazer]

What the heck, haha. After 30 minutes, Southland bring on all their subs!

[KiwiPie]

And Southland just subbed on the bench after 30 minutes. Interesting tactic!

[Stargazer]

Southland looks really fired up!

[Nepia]

BoP assistant coach has a great name.

[KiwiPie]

That was not a forward pass and ref was in no position to call it

[KiwiPie]

I hate it when the defensive line is retreating and all offside and the ref calls nothing.

[KiwiPie]

If a team subs the whole bench after 30 are they allowed to roll on 3 of the originals after 70?

[Stargazer]

Surely they're going to check that tackle on Fine? That looked awful.

Edit: checking it now. Not as bad as it seemed at first.

[KiwiPie]

@Stargazer yeah it did look bad in real time. Stupid floaty pass to give the intercept. Dumb play all night by the Bay

[Stargazer]

Tony Johnson just put a major jinx on Southland.

[KiwiPie]

Oh man this game is killing me

[Duluth]

Risky going for zigzag rucks with two mins left. That’s a long time. Should’ve gone for territory

[KiwiPie]

Why contest the maul? So dumb

[KiwiPie]

I need a lie down after that. A 5 point win, top 8 secured

[Bovidae]

MSR definitely entered that maul from the side - dumb, and lucky.

[Stargazer]

Great game from Southland; if they had played like this all season, they wouldn't have been at the bottom of the table.

[Steven Harris]

@Bovidae I was hoping the Stags would nail that kick ,can’t stand MSR given his past record with the home side

Not sure about that. Bay are down so many troops and except for that period in the 1st half Southland lived on scraps

You are able to bring players back on for injuries, unlike SR. The question is whether they are all legitimate injuries.

Coincidence that the 3 injuries were simultaneous and they all jogged off ....
