Wellington resting players might cost them. Have they underestimated Waikato?
Waikato 7 - 0 up after 18 minutes and was close to scoring a 2nd try.
And there is the 2nd try from Reece!
Almost a 3rd try for Reece. Disallowed because of double movement, but Wellington should be worried.
12 - 0 Waikato after 26 minutes.
Waikato's cutting Wellington up with the wide ball.
Manihera scored Waikato's 3rd try. Geez, Wellington's defence is poor.
Smith converts the try: 19 - 0 Waikato after 29 minutes.
Malo Tuitama sure loves the big hits, but this was the 1st time it was effective.
Second deliberate knock-on from Tuitama. YC
Reece has had an unreal first half. He's even been great on defense.
@dice Such a pity he's going overseas. Would have been great for the AB7s.
He may still play for Fiji though.
Playing 14 against 13 now, with Manihera and Fahamokoa both also in the bin.
'Looked like a Frontal Hopoate attempt from the Wellington No. 1
Great turnover from Billy Proctor.
Tuitama back on.
14 v 14
Geez, that was an easy bonus point try from Takarangi.
Wow, 26 - 0 to Waikato.
Finally a try to Wellington. Renata.
26 - 7 Waikato
Hopefully just a consolation score.
That was an awesome attack from Waikato, resulting in Reece's hattrick.
43 - 14 Waikato with 12 minutes to go.
The team that was relegated in 2017 is smashing the team that got promoted. It would be nice if Waikato could grab the shield from Taranaki.
Hope I didn't jinx it. Try Matt Proctor.
43 - 19 Waikato
