Bay of Plenty v Canterbury

[KiwiMurph]

Some pretty shit early clearances from Delany - just pumping it straight down Canterbury's throat.

Fun game, 7-7 after 20 and BOP finally showing something.

[shark]

We were all over them for the first ten minutes but BOP have drastically turned that around and are basically all over us. 12-7 to BOP

[shark]

It's a bloody see-saw. Canterbury draw level, kick to come from in front

[KiwiPie]

Bay scrum is superb. Not many do that to a Canterbury scrum. 14-12 to Cantabs at HT

[Stargazer]

Great scrum from BOP, absolutely dominating.
I can't quite decide who the best BOP player on the field has been this first half.
George Bridge standing out for Canterbury. A big threat every time he gets the ball.

[Tim]

Leniert-Brown getting dominated at scrum time.

[shark]

Makene also for Canterbury. Going much better than I'd expected, and out of position on the wing too I reckon.

Canterbury's handling really letting them down.

[Tim]

When you have to poach Australian props ...

[KiwiPie]

@stargazer Mitch Karpik gets my vote

[Tim]

Canterbury replacement props made a difference.

Are you still allowed to kick for goal?

[Stargazer]

Canterbury are clearly missing guys like, Bird, Funnell and obviously Mo'unga.

[KiwiPie]

Suddenly after an hour we look buggered. Might turn ugly in the last 20

You wouldnt know it by the way the commentators wank on.

[Stargazer]

@kiwimurph I'm listening to the radio commentary

[KiwiMurph]

@stargazer smart move.

[Tim]

Matenga was right. Should've been a penalty for taking him out.

[African Monkey]

Alex Hodgman has made a huge difference since coming on.

[KiwiMurph]

Bridge was well looked after but according to TJ 'very involved, constantly asking questions of the defence'. Haha ok pal.

[Tim]

Sky TV really strain their credibility when they constantly talk up Chris King. Jesus fucking christ.
