    Michael Ala'alatoa sent to the sin bin and Manawatu are down to 14. Not sure why; playing the ball while on the ground?

    Great try Tamanivalu! MMac can't convert. 13-6 Taranaki with 7 minutes to go in the 1st half.

    Fair call on the YC. As it was a professional foul. But the penalty quick tap leading to that, offside player handing a teammates knock on .....

    Hammington knocks it on, but it then rolls backwards 2m behind the point where he knocks it on before teammate handles it.

    One of for Rugby Refs forum.

    Actually, after typing all that ... it occurs to me that the guy was on the ground when he handled it.

    selfishly, I'd like Taranaki to absolutely thrash Manawatu so badly they curl up and let HB have thier way with them too!

    Another try to Tamanivalu. Great team try. They certainly make the Turbos pay for that yellow! MMac converts: 20-6 Taranaki. 2 minutes to play until the break.

    Naholo scores his 2nd. MMac adds the two.
    Half time: Taranaki 27 - 6 Manawatu

    I like Naholo's supporting running line for that try, even though he was tailing a slow forward he didn't run so flat that he forced a forward pass back on the inside.

    Lovely to see a backwards pass. Warms my cockles.

    @african-monkey I don't like it that he tries to sound like a rugby encyclopedia, while at the same time regularly being wrong on his facts.

    Naholo looking a class above, surely FirstChoice right wing for eoyt.
    My man crush on Perofeta continues, I hope he can grow next year with Blues. Can really see him being a ABs 10.
    Also like this Halafihi, see he was with Hurricanes this year but don't know if he played. Would like to see more of him at next level. I wonder if Chiefs might pick him up with all the departures they have had.

    @98blueandgold Halafihi was on a one year contract with the Hurricanes. He could be useful at the Blues too.

    Although there was a chance his one-year deal at the Hurricanes could be extended in 2018, the 23-year-old said it was not playing on his mind as he prepared to face Wellington in the capital on Saturday.

    I don't know whether anyone noticed, but Perofeta was replaced in the 39th minute by Ngatai. The Naki coach said in the mid-game interview that he had rolled his ankle (he didn't seem too concerned though).

    In the mean time, Jamie Booth scored a try for the Turbos. It's 27-11,.
    And now it's a try to Ngatai at the other end! 32-11 to Taranaki with the kick to come.
