Christ Li is dumb. Probably bombed a try there.
-
Harbour have just scored to make it 20-30 in their favour.
Strange game this one.
Some really crap kicking mixed with really crap catching is making a lot of messy play with the ball bouncing around everywhere...
When they decide to keep ball in hand, its been bloody good watching. -
Harbour running away with it now 20-38.
Southland cant buy a trick in the second half. Just too many errors
-
Not the most exciting game but harbour got the result they needed as a premiership team.
Thought they would slip up here tonight to be honest but more than happy with bonus point win
-
Good win for one of New Zealand's premier teams.
Very disappointed to see Parsons out of the headgear during the after match interview.
-
honestly thought Southland would be better than that, was some woeful defence out there.
-
@Tim You finally have a decent coach!
-
Thought the two Bryn's played really well. Good win.
-
@ACT-Crusader Gatland has been pretty sharp. Good distance on his kicking has put the opposition on the back foot.
