Waikato vs Tasman

Aight sure I'm pissed off. With the penalty try thing, isn't the rule that if there is a penalty infringement in a try scoring situation then they take the defender out of the situation. If not a penalty try, a penalty kick at least meaning would have been under 7 points and have a better chance at winning.

Ta$man a lot better in the second half with the wind, but another week where they've not been as good as in the early season. Mitch Hunt and Shannon Frizell both significant losses. Think we'll need Mitch back next week!
Taufua, Blackadder and Jordan impressive among the starters for Ta$man, but the bench guys really made a difference - Crockett, Sione Havili and Finlay Christie.
Quin Tupaea very impressive for Waikato.

A great day for running rugby so a bloody disappointing result as Waikato should have got something out of this game. We paid the price for having so little possession and territory in the 2nd half. The defence was much better than in the last 2 games and the scrum held up well except for one time, so some improvement there.
