@Hooroo said in Otago vs Waikato (Ranfurly Shield):
DRIVE IT WAIKATO!!!!
It should be easy
Massive choke if you don't win
-
Let's go Waikato. Bring it home.
-
Commentators: "Conditions perfect here."
I mean no shit it's under a roof.
-
Tupaea fire 🔥
-
Well fuck I take that back. Rough.
-
@Yeetyaah premature fire put out and then lit at the other end..cruel game
-
Jesus Christ. Shitty passage of handling from both sides.
-
Sensational handling from Collins to pull that pass in..🎣
-
Weak defence from the Waikato back 3 so far.
-
@Yeetyaah could be one of those games where defence is optional ..
-
Should be a YC to Otago in my book, stopped momentum
-
Fucking Sweeney
-
Good god these passes from Waikato are terrible.
-
@Yeetyaah that’s what’s killing them at the minute..if they can make these passes stick and build pressure, still I would not stress, I think it’s gonna be one of these high scoring games that could go either way
-
@Steven-Harris they need to take the ball into contact more. Always looking for shit offloads.
-
Far out. Koroi and Nareki are putting it on.
-
@Yeetyaah from my view, Waikato look to have a bit of scrum dominance, they should be holding it in, pulling a penalty , they are winning their lineouts, play a bit of code in a narrow channel for some phases to pull the defence in and then go wide..
The helter skelter nature is suiting Otago , even more so when you turn pill over..easy game when played with brains.. -
Good game this. Notable for Jack Stratton looking like a dead ringer for any 1950s NZ bloke.
-
Surely a man in the bin there?
-
@Yeetyaah took them 33 minutes to work out they had the stronger scrum..but all good, your right in this..!
-
@Steven-Harris Yeah you called it before with the scrum.
-
Usually a fan of Goldie on commentary, but today he's as one-eyed as a Cantab.
-
Unreal maul from Waikato. Forwards are putting in the mahi.
-
Shit that's a tough call. He looked onside to me must be something to do with the ball not being out despite it being in the hands of the halfback?
-
Bullshit call. Absolute bullshit. Otago don't get a card from 3 shit scrums in a row but Fletch gets a card from fuck all.
-
@Yeetyaah totally agree..especially for such a contentious call..!
-
Key minutes here, if Waikato can stay in the fight...it’s still game on..!
-
Where's the high tackle? Get absolutely fucked. This ref is ridiculous.
-
@Yeetyaah I saw it and it was marginal. By the way, from the replay it was clear that Fletcher was offside. I find giving YCs for that stupid though.
-
@Stargazer can't agree on the high tackle. Missed the replay for Fletch so I'll take your word. My issue was how happy he was to give a card but when Otago can butcher 3 scrums in a row and concede a penalty try and not be given a card.
-
Poor bugger..,has’nt Lansdowne just come back from an long term injury...?
-
Gahh not Lansdown injured again. Dude's only been back for 3 games.
-
C'mon Mooloo, take that Shield! If not, Canterbury gets a challenge next week.
-
Sweeney ,crack up..helps an injured guy up ,and then shunts him in the back,lol
-
Lose talking about Stratton heading to Japan to Toshiba.
-
Ouch, intercept try Otago.
-
@Yeetyaah Yep, was announced on the 1st of August.
