Tight first half 1 try each but harbour (who failed to convert their try) have picked up two late penalties and lead 11-7 at the break
-
Harbour putting big pressure on Otago ion D in a way that they haven't faced in a while.
-
Must admit I'm impressed. Harbour is doing better than I expected so far. Entertaining game.
-
What's the tape behind the otago players ears?
-
@Siam Has to do with research, I think, into the impact of head knocks or something like that.
-
@Siam something from Otago Uni to measure impacts for concussion research
-
Think they've had it on all season?
Missed first 2 mins but looks like Harbour got another penalty 14-7 now
-
Tense game here 14-14 with 12 to go....
Neither team wants to make a mistake but still keen to throw the ball around.
As a harbour fan I feel heartbreak is oh so close
-
Otago get a penalty on the 40m line but cant put it between the uprights
7 to go. Harbour lucky to still be on even terms
-
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!
-
Man, North Harbour are a tough team. Solid on defence all night and took their chance when they had it.
-
Some dumb rugby at the end from otago there, impatient and inaccurate. Man some of those early breaks should've been converted too, too often not taking the simple option and trying to be tricky.
Great defence by Harbour, that was a fun watch even if it was the wrong result.
-
We won that with MASSIVE DEFENCE. Just HUGE!!!
-
Gatland nailed a winning DG for HBHS vs St Kents in the schools final a few year back too.
-
Bring back the old harbourrugby fan website!!
Great result for the underdog. Hard for Otago to swallow, but they didn't take the opportunities given them.
With that sort of effort Harbour could have turned back the Germans in 1940.
-
Fuck, I was on a skype work call for the whole game!
-
Pretty, pretty sure that NZ needs a 6th Super Rugby team now.
