@Kiwiwomble classic Cantab comeback, lucky it was only preseasonnext Saturday should be exciting, Jona Nareki looks like he hasn't lost much of a step

Did both teams make wholesale changes at HT? Often these games can be a reflection of who is on the field in each half.

The Cantab starting XV was pretty strong going by this

I don't know either way.

[bobily2]

I think I remember seeing on Facebook that DMac played and played well. Though I don't have any more details

Wellington 24 - Taranaki 7 at halftime.

I'm curious what position DMac played because 10 and 15 could be filled by a number of players, and that will impact who plays 12.

[Canes4life]

Wellington try scorers were Ruben Love, C Garden-Bachop, Richard Judd, N Milner Skudder and Pepesani Patafilo

F/T - Auck 21 - CM 12.
