        Hawke’s Bay:
        1: Jason Long
        2: Ash Dixon
        3: Pouri Rakete-Stones
        4: Geoff Cridge
        5: Michael Allardice
        6: Hugh Renton
        7: Fa’alemiga Selesele
        8: Marino Mikaele-Tu’u
        9: Chris Eaton
        10: Ihaia West
        11: Sam McNicol
        12: Richard Buckman
        13: Cardiff Vaega
        14: Jonah Lowe
        15: Tiaan Falcon
        Reserves: Jacob Devery, Mark Braidwood, Jarvy Aoake, Nicholas Palmer, Brad Weber, Hayden Hann, To’o Vaega

        I thought Weber was out for the season?
        Great to see Jonah Lowe back and starting, but I would prefer he was playing 13
        No specialist 7 😞

          @Stockcar86 Yeah, I saw the line-up on Sky. Surprised to see Weber there, indeed. Strange after his post on Instagram. Also, Jonah Lowe back much earlier than expected. But in both cases, great news!

          I'd change a lot more, but keep Lowe at 14 to get this backline: 9 Eaton, 10 West, 11 TJ Vaega, 12 Falcon, 13 Buckman, 14 Lowe, 15 McNicol. I really don't like it that they persist in playing Falcon at fullback.

          I also got the impression last week, that Evans was expected to play this week.
          I guess Selesele can't play at 6, because I think Renton is a better 7 than a 6. Anyway, at least Cridge will play at lock again, as he should be, and Renton is back in the squad.

          The no. 20 in the reserves is (according to Sky) Lucas Goodin. That will be his debut, won't it?

              We are going surprisingly well, three minutes gone and we have yet to concede a point.

                And even more pleasing my guys have now got off zero after Ihaia West knocks over a penalty from close range.

                    We did well to hold them out for 10 minutes. Flood gates likely to open now.

                        Nepia, I will almost certainly be up in Palmy tomorrow watching a whangai grand daughter playing for St Marys in the Hurricanes Schoolgirls final against a Palmy team at 11.30 so will take in, and give a report from, your outfit against St. Patricks College Silverstream in the boys final if we stick around long enough for that game at 2.30.

                          Well, we do have a specialist 7, playing at 12 with 2 turnovers won so far

                            Looks like zero work has been done practicing catching high kicks since the BoP match.

                              Shit and an even more feeble attempt as Falcon shelves yet another one.

                                That's why he needs to play at 12, give him a chance to get his confidence back

                                    Is kick off 2:30pm not 12:30pm? I'm trying to figure out to watch it via a mates Sky Go.

                                      Who is that guy in the number 20 jersey that has come on as a replacement? It does not look like the Waratahs guy that is listed in the team posted by '86

                                          As an Aussie if he has a decent game he's probably in line for a Crusaders contract. 😉

                                                Quick get out the heart pills and the respirators, I'm in danger of a heath emergency as the Magpies score a converted try to level the score three minutes prior to half time

                                                  Gosh, that looked like a HB player was taken out, at least we can be reassured that at least one of the referees eyes is still working seeing as though he managed to see the Canterbury player played in the air and give them a penalty. Ah well at least it is just a three point deficit at halftime, much better than we could ever have hoped for an hour ago.

                                                                        In case anyone is interested it is Hawkes Bay 10 - 27 Canterbury after fifty seven minutes.

                                                                        Very interested, I took Canterbury with an 18 point start at the TAB

                                                                                Allardyce made himself part of the ruck, so that Canterbury player had every right to clean him out.
