And again, Taranaki hits back immediately. Waisake Naholo scores the try.
12 all after 17 minutes.
Who was the old guy with the balding head?
Penalty try to Taranaki. Samuel Slade sent to the bin for collapsing the maul. 19 - 12 Taranaki after almost 20 minutes.
Taranaki's first five - Daniel Waite - has a powerful boot.
@Tim I think that's Jayson Potroz.
Counties giving away too many penalties. Shot at goal coming up ...
22 - 12 to Taranaki after 24 minutes.
This is becoming a try fest. Prop Conan O'Donnell scores for Counties.
22 - 19 to Taranaki after 26 minutes.
Halfback battle is pretty interesting in this game.
Couple of big lump locks out there eh, 4 for naki and 5 for CM.
Great scrum from Counties.
Haven't seen much of SBW since those early minutes.
Taranaki's Super Rugby frontrow is getting drilled.
That was a great break from Taumateine that he butchered himself with a terrible pass.
Result: Taranaki scores; Lachlan Boshier going over.
Yeah, should've kicked.
Half time: Counties 19 - 29 Taranaki
Two Aussies in the starting back 3 for Counties - Kuridrani and Kellaway.

Mellow is at hooker, not Riccitelli. I didn't see the start of the game so no idea why.
But C-M definitely have an advantage there.
I see some rucking
