    Better team than last week.

    I think that's the strongest back division that we can field.

    Forwards are OK, but Halanukonuka is a serious loss - the reserve props struggle at this level and Hames is a rookie tighthead. Things should be helped by Makalio being back and Paulo dropping to the bench

    Some forward cavalry on the bench with Samu, especially, and Frizell.

    @SammyC Waikato haven't quite been Hawkes Bay, but if Leon's tactics incorporate some sort of 1080 equivalent, then there's definitely hope this week! πŸ™‚

    Another tiny crowd. Bit of a theme of this year's competition.

    Was just about to write how disappointing James Lowe has been during this game and then he gets a yellow for being a dick. Well, officially it was for a deliberate knock-down, but he's been annoying all game.

    That yellow has been very costly. Two tries.

    Good finish.

    Sevu Reece outstanding for Waikato. Will Jordan very classy for Ta$man.

    And ... it almost cost Ta$man the game.

    Great game from Guildford; Reece also among Waikato's best, TKB had a good run, too. Taufua very good for Ta$man, with Jordan and Havili also among their better players today.

    Ta$man survive some suicidal impulses.

    Well in control and then they decide to run the subs bench and pull Taufua and Havili.

    Yellow card for Lowe. Hunt knocks a ball on in the backfield, then kicks it out on the full. And with 30 seconds left they decide to run some elaborate crashball play - turn it over and let Waikato go upfield for three minutes to score...

    Luckily the Waikato kicker sprays it and we sneak home.

    Crucial points!!!

    @Chris-B. Also lucky that the ginga got away with putting the kicker off by charging the conversion early πŸ˜‰

    Was a fun game to watch for a neutral.

    @Nepia Pah - if you're going to have a foot tap as part of your routine you'd better get on with the rest of it. πŸ™‚

    @Chris-B. pretty annoying that the entire crowd knows you're not allowed to charge again if you've been pulled up on it but the ref doesn't.

    @WillieTheWaiter For you guys! πŸ™‚

    I take your point, but the ref seemed to think the Ta$man guys had a point that the kicker had moved his foot and hence started his approach. Might have been a bit lucky to be allowed to take the kick again.

    I was just watching the flags!
