On debut

Fend on McGarvey Black and Uruguay grab one

[booboo]

14 - 7

[booboo]

Molia makes try for Dickson

[booboo]

21 - 7 at the half

[booboo]

Plenty of space and Carter capitalises.

28 - 7

[booboo]

Impressed at how whole team got back on D when Uru kick just hung in the in goal. Made the try really.

[booboo]

Rokolisoa goes OK.

Try on the right to Rush

[booboo]

First kick missed. 33 7

[booboo]

Awesome counter ruck but Rush fluffs the pick up. Would have been try no. 6 even from 40m out

[booboo]

8 man shove ... well y'know ... on Uru ball makes space for Spencer who gets his second.

[booboo]

Soft tackling. Rokolisoa rounds it out under the bar.

45-7 full time
