Fast game this. Great try Mo'unga. He converts his own try: 10-0 Canterbury
-
Dunshea can run! Not bad for a giraffe.
-
Another one to Mo'unga after a good break from Bridge. Bird is playing well.
Mo'unga converts his own try again: 17-3 Canterbury.
-
Very good try from Junior Ngaluafe. Eade's kick is good:
17-10 Canterbury -
Some really sloppy passes from Canterbury, leading to a Neria Fomai try. Canterbury complacency?
Eade converts again and it's suddenly 17 all. -
Mo'unga misses a penalty kick and it's 17-17 at the break.
-
@Stargazer said in Canterbury vs Southland (Ranfurly shield):
Mo'unga scores a penalty goal and Canterbury lead 20-17 at the break.
What game are you watching?
-
Try Ennor, not converted: 22 - 17 Canterbury
-
@Higgins Sorry, I corrected my post before I saw yours. Had a brain fade.
-
Geez Tongia with a bad shoulder charge on Mo'unga, contact with the face. Mo'unga looks injured but stays on the field; shouldn't that be a HIA? Tongia gets yellow, but that clearly should have been red.
Tongia did an SBW there. You can take the boy out of league, but you cannot take league out of the boy, it seems.
Should get cited.
-
Ennor scores his 4th try of the game. It's becoming a monster score. Cameron converts: 64-20 Canterbury.
-
Hat-trick Bridge. Massacre.
Cameron converts: 71-20CanterburyWhat did Sumo say? Who was signed by the Crusaders? Was he talking about Ennor?
-
Full time: Canterbury win 78 - 20. Shield never in danger.
Next challenger ...? -
I caught the last 20 minutes and 30-odd points for Canterbury. I don't think the Southland back three made a single tackle...

Ennor is a huge talent. Good crowd and a great atmosphere at the ground.
Mouaga and Dom bird are superstars at this level.
Time to put the "southern man" myth to bed. Southland forwards were weak and pathetic, bunch of Southland supporters sitting next to us drinking cider all night.... blokes like Jason Rutledge and Paul miller would be appalled
