Taranaki v Waikato - Ranfurly Shield

[Stargazer]

Fun game this. Try Adam Burn.

Handy player, Quinn Tupaea

12 - 7 Waikato

[Stargazer]

Try James Tucker against the post.

If Waikato can keep this up, the shield will be on the move.

19 - 7 Waikato

[Stargazer]

Bonus point try from Taukei'aho! Unbelievable that Waikato seems to be doing it again. Taranaki's biggest nightmare in a shield game.

26 - 7 Waikato

[Stargazer]

Nothing is going wrong for Waikato, and everything for Taranaki. Tupaea with the try!

33 - 7 Waikato

[Tim]

Waikato must've read my thread.

[Bovidae]

That was fun to watch!

Still 40 mins to go though.

[taniwharugby]

'naki lost alot of corporate sponsors with the EQ issues at the Stadium, if they lose the field thier bank balance gonna take another hit

[Stargazer]

Try Mataele.

33 - 12 Waikato

Don't let them back in the game dammit!

[Stargazer]

Waikato should stop kicking possession away.

[Stargazer]

Who has the Chiefs Cup at the moment?

[Stargazer]

Taranaki, keep on going now. Tire that Waikato squad as much as possible.

[Bovidae]

@stargazer BOP.

It's amazing what a shot of confidence does in sport.

[taniwharugby]

@bovidae for sure, cannot be underestimated!

[Stargazer]

And the Real Bay now get's the first challenge. This Thursday. :face_with_stuck-out_tongue:

[Bovidae]

Also, happy for the 5 pts.

[Higgins]

@stargazer The perfect chance to lose the shortest ever tenure as shield holders record.

[Stargazer]

[ACT Crusader]

Congrats Mooloo. Fantastic performance against a very good side. Sweeney turning back the hands of time.

[Chris B.]

@act-crusader Fuck Mooloo and their apathetic supporters.

The only guy who's excited* about this result is @Stargazer, so lets hope Hawkes Bay take it off these undeserving bastards at the first opportunity!

This is what happens when you get given a challenge pretty much every year. Diminishing Marginal Utility!

When Waikato lose the Shield they should be de-barred from challenging for more than six years - that will perhaps re-kindle in them an appreciation of the Shield.

More than six fucking years without a challenge** - you fluffybunnies!

*@Bovidae at least showing an interest.

** These Div 2 fuckers have had five fucking challenges in that time!
