Marty McKenzie scores. Southland 7-0 after 12 mins.
-
@African-Monkey Could Southland make a game of this?
-
@DrivingMaul I really hope so but they'll eventually fade lets be honest here.
-
Southland scrum going backwards and with McKenzie going off for a HIA it feels like the dam is about to burst
-
Little scores off the back of a solid scrum so Harbour get their first score and at last some reward for being on top 7-7
Will that be the start of the dam bursting? -
@DrivingMaul Yeah Southland starting to make silly mistakes now like McKee giving a dumb penalty away and Nu'u throwing a dumb offload.
-
7-7 at HT. Southland fighting hard but a poor miss from Scott Eade is not what they needed after they got some good ball.
-
To be fair to Southland they didn't let their heads drop when they conceded and are staying tenaciously in this one even if they did miss a penalty to take the lead back 7-7 HT
-
How the hell did McGahan miss that?!
-
@African-Monkey How did Southland not match up on defence? All that hard work gone to waste because of 1 lazy moment
-
@DrivingMaul Yeah poor miss by Matt James.
-
And now it is game over. Scott Eade has been poor since coming on.
-
@Dice Why did the Blues re-sign him?
