No lock cover on the bench.

[Stargazer]

I missed the start of this game; any changes in the line-ups?

[Chris]

@Stargazer

Cahill out
Gardiner to lock
Kellow starting
Not sure who has joined the bench

[akan004]

Dom Gardiner is not Cahill. You would think commentators would bother to do some prep work before they get on air.

[Chris]

@akan004

Yep and Kellow is not Gardiner

No one needed on the bench. Kellow wasn't in the 23.

[KiwiMurph]

Koller is a tidy 10

[Stargazer]

@KiwiMurph That was a great kick for touch!

HT: North Harbour 19 - 13 Canterbury

[Stargazer]

Good to see Cullen Grace return from injury.

[KiwiMurph]

Harbour should have taken the 3 to push the lead to 9

The radio commentators are still not aware of this change; saying Cahill scored the try.

[KiwiMurph]

Harbour unlucky there - looked a clear Cantab knock on in the lead up.

[KiwiMurph]

Great play McLeod. Could be the match winner.

[Duluth]

[JK]

Harbour doing better than I expected for a real bunch of clubbies.

Booth is playing well at NPC level, while Koller is a revelation. He and Ta$man's Taine Robinson were nobodies but are faring pretty well. Lucas Cashmore is another 1st five who is really stepping up.
