Otago vs Hawke's Bay

[Nepia]

How did we not get a penalty then - holding on to the ball with your legs is still holding on to the ball!

[Stargazer]

Shit, Jonah Lowe injured again?

[Canes4life]

@Stargazer glass man.

[Steven Harris]

Agree with Ian Smith..this is far from over..!

[Stargazer]

@Canes4life Each time another injury though. Very unlucky.

[Canes4life]

@Stargazer yeah you'd have to feel for the guy. Toala showing his class tonight again.

[Stargazer]

Damn, they're coming back. Come on Magpies!

[Nepia]

Ioane has been pretty classy tonight.

What the hell we've gone to sleep and made MIchael Collins look good.

[Steven Harris]

@Nepia agree ,looks like he has so much time on his hands..

[Higgins]

The wheels are starting to fall off big time, making me a bit nervous.

[Stargazer]

Several players with cramp, esp Flanders.

[Stargazer]

Put Fakatava on. Some fresh legs.

[Stargazer]

Ah, I forgot we still had Fomai. Toala off

[Higgins]

Not looking good in the tipping comp with most of the Bay team going for the 9-16 point margin. Come on Bay, one more scoring play would be much appreciated in these last two minutes thanks.

[Nepia]

The bloody ref keeps adding extra time on!

[Stargazer]

Yessssss! Bonus point win. Also no bonus point for Otago. Good night for the Magpies, even though they let the southeners come back a bit.

You would take 2 wins and a draw against Wellington everyday of the week and twice on Sunday if you were given those odds at the seasons start...just need to tidy up those kick off receives and make you sure you keep your defensive shape through the entire game..enjoying the magpies in 2019.

[Stargazer]

@Steven-Harris People tend to underestimate the Magpies. Probably because we've so many young lads fresh out of school that even the so-called experts don't know. We've plenty of SR players though, it's still surprising me a bit that nobody gave us any chance of winning the Championship title at the start of the season. I'm fine with an underdog status though. Still many rounds to go.

Josh Ioane should've got at least 1 point(I would've given him the 3 points tbh). Had a weak pack/halfback and still looked extremely good.
