Collins is playing well.
He never did this for the Blues. Well done Otago - he's looking good. Great vision.
Started to look dangerous in SRA for the Highlanders earlier this year.

Not a great kick from the Otago halfback.
-
-
Sums up our season. Passes not going to hand and then bundled into touch.
-
@ACT-Crusader spot on. Should have tied it at the end getting the ball and a penalty within the 22. Team not what it was.
-
Well done Otago. Drought over.

Why didn't Canterbury
contest that last lineout?Plenty of questions this season that start with those 3 words.
Hopefully these young guys are learning hard lessons from this that we can build something for next season.

how good a game is this???
There were some class moments from Otago tonight.
The number of breakdown turnovers / penalties seemed really high.
Who was the ref? He was pretty quick on the old whistle with some of them.

I think that is known as the Thorne effect
-
@ACT-Crusader Pickerall. Definitely known for being quick to the whistle.
-
@ACT-Crusader PIckerill.
I think Otago's first try should have been a penalty for Canterbury as the Otago player ripped it while the Cantab had been tackled and knees were on the ground.
Was very quick on a couple of not releasing calls, then let a couple others go.
-
@taniwharugby Some knock-ons missed too.
I wasn't happy that Pickerill rewarded Drummond for deliberately passing into a player bending down so the not straight from the resulting lineout was justice.
Speaking of Drummond, he was shedding a tear at the end, such was his disappointment.
-
There was plenty of standing and fist pumping at the end there
Collins leading from the front, not winning it on his own but he seems to spark stuff In others
Have to say we were lucky with korois try, thought it could have gone either way and I thought they would call it out
Attack was a bit frantic but defence was fast and accurate
Slade had a huge game but he should get a rocket for his showboat try
