    I see the TAB has an even game with both teams paying $1.87. They have been wrong on every BOP game this season.

    How does everyone see this game going ?

    I think the TAB are almost on the money - it's so close I'm letting the heart tip the Steamers for this one, without overthinking it 🙂

    Will have to make sure our backline D is well organised, especially for when the likes of Vaea Fifita start looming in the mid field.

    I think evens at the TAB us pretty fair for the season so far. Maybe BOP with a slight advantage due to playing at home.

    The Tab also has Bay Of Plenty at $7.00 to be holding the shield after 10 rounds. Naki beats Otago Bay beats Naki and then holds it for the last two home games v the Hawke's and Manawatu. Easy money!

    Three scrums so far, two have been demolition derbies and WEllington just holding on in the third, albeit under pressure. Canes4Life is still happy that his front row are very promising players.

    Yet another scrum demolition allows a try under the posts to Steamers halfback Richard Judd. Steamers 10 - 06 after 27 minutes of mostly BoP ascendency.

    @Higgins lol these guys are 21. To expect them to be the full package yet is just moronic.

    If they are 26/27 and still scrummaging like this, then yeah I would be pissed off.

    @Canes4life If they are the best props available in Wellington and being selected on current merit, rather than what they might be like in five years time, then there must be a serious shortage of scrummaging props available for the selectors to pick from.

    @Higgins if you can’t see the upside of having these guys in the team atm, then I don’t know what to say. The NPC is a development competition for Super Rugby now and these games are the perfect opportunity for guys like Fidow and Numia to learn facing up to vets like Geldenhuys.

    The mobility of those three front rowers is outstanding, if they can improve their scrummaging then they will be close to A.Bs level based on Hansen’s assessment of the modern game.

    I like what I'm seeing from Trask. Promising.

    Judd leaving for Japan is unfortunate for the Canes.

    @Stargazer yeah massive shame, he was outstanding for the Canes this year.

    Trask looking class, thought he was a Fullback, looks better at First Five.

    Wellington need to stop using Kafatolu as a main ball carrier. Old man getting dominated.

    @Steven-Harris I actually think Numia's gone alright (hence the look he gave Fidow before), Fidow has been shafted big time though.

    @Steven-Harris Don't worry the Wellington front row are young are are supposedly learning their craft at this level, despite all being Super Rugby players, and, in one case, an All Black.

    @Higgins i’d Like to see you pack down against old veterans at 21. I don’t see you commentating on their defence or any of the good stuff they’ve been doing. Aumua has shown All Black level defence tonight.
