Hawkes Bay vs. North Harbour (RS)

[Steven Harris]

@nzzp for me in that situation, the defenders both had Tolai locked up high has he was driving to the line , they collectively drove him back and the ball came out quickly ..
I reckon it would have been worth the risk ..

I agree in that case - they had tehball pretty secure.

Also, no rucks over the goal line - so you dno't have to release I believe.

Poor play Flanders almost led to a NH try

[Grooter]

@Chris Li as a replacement for Goosen? I just figured Li would want to join his good mates Bryn, Stevenson and D Mac in the Tron

[Nepia]

WTF - I had no idea Brock James was coaching the Magpies.

[Grooter]

all tied up.. well this game could certainly go either way

[Grooter]

Bryn

[nzzp]

You could be right just a guess on my part.
Chief’s and Canes both need outside backs.

NH in front just before HT. Good try Tevita Li

15-12

My guess is he will join the Chiefs if they want him.

WTF commentators - only second game for Magpies for Retallick??

[Grooter]

the Bay have taken off Mikaele-Tu'u well I'm leaning towards wanting to see Habour pull this off now

[antipodean]

That's a great step by Stevenson. Caught the ball flat and made that try with the left foot step and acceleration.

[Grooter]

Great work by bones boy Stevenson and wow that man Tevita li I don't know what to say!

that pass was superb

[Steven Harris]

Would love to see Shaun Stephenson in a black jersey , so reminds me of James Lowes ..a skill set made for international rugby ..D is a concern but so was Lowes

I was about to say "Nonu to Dagg" like!

[Nepia]

Jesus, I think this day is already going pear shaped. First Laban announces the evil empire Napier Boys beat the plucky Hastings Boys underdogs and then Stevenson and Li combine for that great try.

Watching 3 games that are on at the same time on 2 screens is not easy
