@kiwimurph Last week, definitely, but I don't think luck had anything to do with their win in this game.

Banks missing a go ahead penalty with 1 to play?

@kiwimurph How's that luck? Banks made a mistake.

Cantabs got lucky that a guy known as a good goal kicker missed a very gettable kick.

@kiwimurph I think southland are one of those teams that drags the opposition down, that said they played pretty well, cantabs created opportunities but made alot of errors under pressure

Stags a tad unlucky but you can’t complain when a kicker of Banks ability misses what under normal circumstances is a very kickable penalty ..
However I do want to give the Stags some credit for their heart and scrambling defence they have shown in this years comp ..it’s the stuff you can’t coach and it kept them in the contest today .
Also I can’t but give a ton of credit to Dale McLeod ., he’s got a very small player base to work with , so for the Stags to be more than competitive against the better teams is a huge compliment to the man .
Dale actually turned down the Canterbury head coach role just before Xmas telling the Canterbury board he had some unfinished business with the Stags , that’s the measure of the man ..
