Wellington v Hawkes (RS)

Visinia fell asleep.

Briant is having a shocker. That’s a try.

[Winger]

Morgans not good enough

No it isn't clearly taken in front of the mark.

[Canes4life]

@KiwiMurph it was on the mark. Obvious on the replay.

It was clearly in front. The mark is where the ball first goes out.

[Steven Harris]

Wow..!

[Winger]

Yes. Now the conversion

[SouthernMann]

Let's go the Bay!!

[Winger]

Morgan misses

[Steven Harris]

You beauties …well deserved ..!

[SouthernMann]

Fantastic result. Awesome work from the lads up the road. Always had faith in them. Love it from the Bay.

[Nepia]

YES!!!!!

[Canes4life]

Well played Bay, well played.

[Stargazer]

Yay, the Shield is going back to Magpies country!!

[Steven Harris]

The Kings of the modern day Ranfurly Shield Challenges ..Hawkes Bay , last 4 Challenges , 4 Wins very impressive

[Stargazer]

Deserved winners! The Magpies pack dominated Wellington's all game. Our forward pack, esp. the frontrow, has been brilliant all game.

[KiwiMurph]

Congrats HB. Saved their game of the season for the Shield challenge.

[Nepia]

That was an enjoyable (understandably less enjoyable for Welly fans) tight game of tight rugby with some good attack and good defence.

[Winger]

Good game. The better team won

Wellington scored and then went to sleep.

And Morgan isn't good enough. Team need a top HB 1st combination and Wellington lack this this year. So, when our forwards aren't on top, we can't rely on our backs to win the game.

[Canes4life]

@Nepia yeah fair play to Hawkes Bay. You guys were the better team (on the day). Wellington’s 19 game winning streak comes to an end but it might be the loss we need if we want to defend the title.
