Taranaki v Southland

[Donsteppa]

0 - 0 at the 41 minute mark...

[Stargazer]

Finally, after 46 minutes the first points are scored. That took them long enough.

[Higgins]

Man, what a magnificent try just scored by Taranaki. Beautiful hands in what looks like heavy rain

Taranaki 05 - 00 Southland after about 46 minutes

Southland for a team that’s beaten from Pilar to post have packed down an impressive scrum in 2019..in fact their forwards have been solid in the main.

Potroz is a decent player. Unfortunate that it might be too late for him to break into Super.

[Yeetyaah]

Dang Te Toiroa not even starting for Taranaki now? Bit of a fall from grace.

[Stargazer]

@Yeetyaah Maybe because he didn't play last week (due to a family bereavement)?

[Stargazer]

Sky Go frozen again. Grrr

[Steven Harris]

Taranaki in for their 3rd try and from a forward pass..17-0

[Stargazer]

I've lost Sky Go completely. Is it full time, yet?

[Steven Harris]

@Stargazer still 17-0 , 2m into injury time,Southland hot on attack

[Steven Harris]

Final score 19-0 to Taranaki , was hoping the Stags would pick up a try but it wasn’t to be, but they did the next best thing and denied the Naki a bonus point ..thought the Stags scrum dominantly throughout most of the match ,but they struggled to get decent field position and ultimately any phases together to apply any pressure...

The worst half of rugby I've ever seen in my life, and I've seen a lot.
Naki is a disgrace right now.

Samoa and Russia say hello...

Naki got their act together in the second half and put together a few decent moves, even with the deteriorating conditions.
