        @duluth Battle of the halves should be good. Looking forward to this one.

          Biggest game of the season for both sides.

          Agree @Tim the Naki 9/10 combination have been superb. Also impressed with the tight 5 for the Naki and their workrate.

            Wainui preferred to Ngatai ?

              @cgrant If I remember it correctly, this is Ngatai's first game since his latest head knock. They're probably carefully managing him and easing him back into the game; or it's just a lack of match fitness.

                Great start for the Cantabs. 12-0 after 12 minutes

                    Wow, that was a pathetic display of defence by Wainui for the first try. Looks like Taranaki are going to get taught a lesson. Canterbury waltzing through the midfield at will.

                      Taranaki's lack of discipline is going to cost them if they continue like this. Yellow cards are handed out like candy this week.

                        Bateman's old legs are still fast enough for that intercept try.

                              This was supposed to be a super clash between arguably the two strongest teams in the competition. I only see one strong team tonight. Come on Naki! That Shield must circulate!

                                  It suddenly has become an interesting game again. Only 10 points between the teams now.

                                        Naki back in the game with an intercept try to Seta, and a good assist from McKenzie for a try by Perofeta

                                          @rembrandt In short, Taranaki finally got the ball!

                                          Intercept try to Tamanivalu after a bad throw from Thompson.
                                          Try to Perofeta after some excellent stepping from McKenzie.
                                          Try to Sowakula, who was steamrolling the Cantab defence.

                                              so it looks like its going to be one if those games I can't watch if I want Taranaki to win

                                                    What has happened to the rugby ball this year in particular to get the reverse swing that sees goal kick clearly swinging away from the posts an missing somehow reverse swing back against the flight of the ball and pass between the uprights? It happens too often to be called a fluke or "allowing for the wind" in both rugby and league. That last conversion be Richie Mo'ounga was just the latest of these reverse swigging efforts.

                                                      Certainly seems to be although that last Taranaki try was a beaut one

                                                      In case anyone needs to know the score it is Canterbury 38 - 35 Taranaki after 56 minutes

                                                        Make that 38 all after 57 minutes after another M McKenzie penalty

                                                          If Taranaki wins the Shield tonight, they already have a challenge on Wednesday. From Manawatu. Whoever wins that game, keeps the Shield until next season.
