Hawke's Bay v Canterbury

[Winger]

Canterbury in front 12-10

[antipodean]

That's a nice try. Good step at pace by Mckay.

[Nepia]

Sheesh, Magpies have lost the plot. I think the mental toll of not getting more points in the first half is showing.

[Nepia]

Positive replacements for the Magpies, Evans on and Prinsep on for Canterbury.

[Winger]

Poor defense by HB. 19-10 Canterbury

[antipodean]

Holy christ ref - two clear opportunities to award penalty advantage and he swallows his whistle.

Lucky for Hawkes Bay they score.

I was just about to say the same thing, (but of course I'm inherently biased so didn't want to offend the ref fluffers on here. ), lying in the tackle went from automatic penalty to not counting at all.

[Winger]

Good team try for HB 19-15

[Nepia]

And now he's changed his maul rulings.

"That's one" before it's even formed.

Yep, complete contrast with the one I mentioned in the first half.

[Winger]

HB half back has a bit to learn still

Twice he's not been the calming influence a pack needs, kicking hard earned possession away.

[KiwiMurph]

This ref is legit awful haha

[Nepia]

Visinia, you dick.

[Stockcar86]

Start Connor next week

[antipodean]

Well done HB!

[Bones]

Wow! What a finish by Hawkes. Well done.

[Nepia]

[Bovidae]

Dixon very happy to get one over his hometown team.
