Good to see Funaki remain the starting halfback and Nock dropped for being a retard

The Blues should be happy about that. A bit cooler and less risk of gassing in a game with loads of movement

[Duluth]

Kicking off soon

[nzzp]

If course we run into the Highlander and and drua after they lose someone important to them.

Could be tough

[Tim]

Apparently it is 25C and 89% humidity right now in Suva.

[Bones]

That very clearly went back.

[antipodean]

Doesn't a knock-on have to travel forward?

[Machpants]

Yes he lost it. Backwards. Umm

[Machpants]

I think the drua are going to get spanked, that was appalling

[Bones]

Renata has really hit form this year eh, looks bloody fit too. Age will count against him for the ABs though I guess.

[Machpants]

Paps released, but didn't get back to feet. Penalty

[antipodean]

Good option Beaudy - just throw it away.

[Bones]

The superior skill and experience of Barrett strikes again.

[Steven Harris]

How can such a talented first five be such an average kicker off the tee ?

[Tim]

Body position was a bit high from some of those ball carriers.

[Bones]

Good to see future highlanders best ever loose forward getting some game time.

[antipodean]

Where's the crowd?
