[Chris B.]

That's pretty reckless from Peni - looked like more than a penalty to me. Plenty of time to pull out and didn't.

[Grooter]

Chris how good is the big fella Tomasi Maka top try scorer this year

[Chris B.]

Nice kick by Davey and nice try to Maka out wide. A bit of justice there!

[Chris B.]

@Grooter He's going well.

[Chris B.]

Two for him!!!

[Chris B.]

Leppien looks seriously broken. Shalfoon on.

[Grooter]

He's a bad bad man is Semisi Tupou Ta'eiloa

[Grooter]

This stags defence is such a shambles

[Chris B.]

Dave Havili firing after the early shot from Peni.

He's a pretty dominant player at NPC.

[Chris B.]

Another one for Dave!

Big fend and a ball off the foot that goes his way!

[Chris B.]

Another try from a big fend by KT.

[Chris B.]

Getting a bit ugly now.

[Higgins]

@Chris-B Maybe the first one hundred pointer coming up if the Southland defence does not pick up?

[Chris B.]

@Higgins Usually slows down with subs etc - but it's looking pretty comfortable.

Couldn't have been a Shield Challenge of course!

[antipodean]

Imagine making Havili look a million dollars. Terrible performance by Southland.

[antipodean]

Is there a TMO for this game? That's a clear PT and YC.

thats what she said.. gets coat and leaves

Nothing positive to add about Southlands performance, how the fuck did they beat BoP?

[KiwiMurph]

Bevan's enthusiasm on commentary for a team getting absolutely creamed is pretty funny

[Grooter]

Manson should be in our nz 7s team
