Great tackle from Clarke.

Like I said, our attack is too tight. We might as well just name no name backs and it wouldn't change a thing to our attack.

Time to sub Ruru out.

@African-Monkey It doesn't look good for him.

We're running out of backrowers. Papali'i and Sotutu shouldn't be too far away though.

Trainor showing off his kicking game early.

And as usual, our forwards are knocking on the ball too often.

Silly from Harbour. Should've taken the 3 and got the bonus point, then you have 6 minutes left to get the ball back to try win it late.

Karl T still out there in the 71st minute.

Otago have scored two tries with Michael Collins in the bin. Otago up 21 - 12.

Good to see Scrafton and Trainor back.

That backline looks really good on paper, but hopefully we use them more this week. We were all excited about getting Manu back, but he's hardly touched the ball since coming back. Our attack has been too tight and too forward orientated.

Decent game to kickoff a big day of rugby.

Waikato will be disappointed to not get at least a bonus point out of this game.
