@FakatavaAllBlack yeah he's been a beast aye. For such a young lad he's made mince meat of some of his more senior opponents this year. Wouldn't mind seeing Lakai team up with Ardie Savea in the Canes this year.

Agree. I hope Canes hang onto him. I would also like to see him have a run at 7 to see how he goes but unlikely to happen at Wellington unless both 7s (Halalilo and Kirifi) are out.

Looked like a hamstring injury (he was icing his hammy).

[Winger]

Otago score right on HT.

26-14

2 yellow card one for each team

@Stargazer

I liked the reply. TUJ is far too injury prone. Disappointing for him

[Winger]

Very enjoyable game to watch. Otago still in it thanks to their 2nd try well into extra time

[Winger]

29-14

TJ seems to be enjoying himself back playing NPC rugby

[Winger]

Wellington take another shot to run the clock down with 14 men

Otago back up to 15

32-14 (4 tries to 2)

[Winger]

Blackwell off replaced by Plumtree

Wellington scrum well on top so far

[Stargazer]

So Dom Bird got a yellow in the 44th minute (before HT) and he's already back on in the 49th minute? Yellows aren't 10 minutes anymore? This is not the first game where I've noticed this.

Edit: I don't have another explanation than that Sky has re-set the clock on screen.

[Higgins]

There was a minute or two of play after he got carded until half time was whistled.

[Bovidae]

Was Williams always meant to be the ref in this game? Two games in two days.

[Winger]

Otago third try. Not converted

32-19
