Magpies lineout has turned to crap during the lockdown

@steven-harris said in Hawkes v Bay of Plenty - Shield Match!:

I have got say this , given the Steamers roster and the quality they have got in terms of super players and they could still turn this around i have been quite underwelmed and that not being offensive to the magpies

Their coach being Darryl Gibson might explain this.

All on again ..crazy game

If Trask could catch that one or Tahuriorangi had left that with the forwards in the maul…

Dumb rugby league rule.

LOL, start watching the game again and immediately here Laban shouting "It's a second man play!"

Bay shit at the ruck

With everything going on in the world, now the blood pressure gets a close Ranfurly Shield game finish! Bring them home Hori!

Thought our halfback was held back near the scrum before that Falcon break.

TTT huge. Should have started.

Otere Black has subbed on with a much better kicking game in the second half.

Ratave!!

Has that done it? All on the back of a dodgy penalty call 5m out from their own line.

What a try

Lowe had struggled in defence a few times today.

Thought Ratave was covered, but he just shoved that guy off.

Hawkes Bayworking for field position here, and now an advantage…

Does golden point impact the Shield?

@kiwimurph would think not, rules pre date that stupid rule wouldn't it...

If Hawkes retain the Shield from a draw before extra time, then we retain the Bay title presumably.
