That was a good try from Drummond, after a great break from Mo'unga. Canterbury lead 10-0 already. Not happy ... I want a challenge for the Bay!
-
Where are you Crucial?
-
Geez, another one for Drummond.
-
We won't get it this time I don't think. Not looking good enough.
-
@Stargazer Kind of like watching HB play! Well so far anyway.
-
Wow, Ennor ...
-
Everything just seems to work for Canterbury. We can forget about that challenge. 25 minutes played and it's already 29-0.
-
For F*#ks sake
-
Dunno what Marshall is on about (surprise surprise), for me that's a knock on all day.
-
Hat-trick Drummond ...
-
@Gunner He just likes to hear himself talk. Doesn't matter what nonsense he spews.
-
Was about to call Canterbury out for dropping below a point a minute.
Don't have to now.
36-0, 32 minutes.
-
97 points in a row without conceding any by Canterbury in 72 minutes.
-
Bloody hell, Drummond in for his 4th.
-
@Higgins that is an impressive stat!
Can't see anyone beating Canterbury this year, especially since we're not playing them
-
BB should steal Mo'unga's boots.

Are Northland not on their schedule then?

Nope, and I'm bloody glad just quietly!
We can do without a hiding thanks. -
Yeah, I'm not gonna watch the end of this, too much pain lol. I sometime think Counties are the rugby equivalent of the warriors. Time to recruit decent 2m locks, and a higher level of loose forwards.
-
Those poor Canterbury fans, their team has sapped the excitement out of watching them, they don't even look remotely interested that their team scored their 64th try of the game.
-
the competition is actually quite competitive if you remove Canterbury
Be interesting to see how NH go against them though.
-
The comeback has started.

I wouldn't say that just yet..
Canterbury need to build a partnership, coz at 50/5 they're still in a bit of trouble. Another wicket to Counties and she's all over.
-
Man, this is just getting silly. 64 - 5 after 61 minutes.
-
And another hat-trick. Bateman. 69-5

Canterbury really digging in putting on 21 for the 6th wicket so far

It may just be enough at the current runrate.
-
Some of the Counties ground fielding has been a pit poor in the last few overs. Luckily those fumbles have not resulted in any extra runs being gifted.
-
McKay in. Mo'unga converts again. 78-5 with 3 minutes to play.
-
Mo'ounga having an absolute blinder.
-
I haven't heard anything about Tongia being cited after that yellow-that-should-have-been-a-red shoulder tackle in the Canterbury-Southland game. Does anyone know whether he really got off that lightly?
-
Me o my that was fun. Mo'ounga 10 from 11 and a fantastic game, looked a level above.
We're averaging 56 points for and 12 against. What the highest for an NPC season? A shield holding?
-
3 Shield challenges down, 2 more to go. Waikato is the next one on September 30th. Can't see the Shield change hands though.
-
@Canerbry Best 10 in the Mitre 10 Cup, continuing his Super Rugby form. Can't see how anyone would prefer Dmac over him for the 3rd AB first-five spot, but that's apparently the way it's going to be if the selectors are not willing to drop Dmac.

It was a great atmosphere at the game for a Wednesday night.
We'll never get tired of winning like this
