Superb turnover from Kirifi.

Never supporting his own bodyweight.

This game is a free for all lottery.

No,, he fell after he had the ball. That was a great turn over

LOL

Neither Wai Bush nor Northland are playing, so I don't care who wins

Pretty pleased with only being 8 points down into that wind. Need to be canny in the second half and play the game at the right end

Why did we go for the 3 the kick was in line with the Savea conversion and out line out has been atrocious. Going to be a nerve racking 40 minutes.

The NZRU must be so pissed that they missed out on having this game played in front of a packed stadium in Tauranga with an actual atmosphere, and where it’s still not raining yet…

Intent or not its the rules of the game ffs move on ...

Kiriffy not shutting the fuck up

Finally maybe we can get some line outs

Shields displaying the handling that got him into the England squad.

Ruined a promising movement

Lions can't keep kicking possession away, they have to try to run it out

We look gassed

BOP definitely have the upper hand, Lions struggling to hang on

Good patience in this weather. Narawa does a Tele'a and snipes the try next to the post.

Dare to believe.

We’ve had piss all ball in the second half. Keep the ball in hand ffs. And keep it away from Shields.

Talea

Talea, Telea, Teleeyar or Tele'a?

@canefan Hopefully we get to hold on the bloody ball.

And keep hold of it

Umanga

Who?

Are we not throwing in straight anymore?

Jeez that was crooked as shit. This ref is an idiot.

@Donsteppa said in NPC Final: Wellington vs Bay of Plenty:

Umanga

Who?

Think that was a sometimes mis-spelling of Umaga. And I'm guilty of slipping back to Reiko

What about the clean out on Shields straight up shoulder charge

Dumb by Filipo there. Stay in man.

@Canes4life not really one known for his brains tbh

Lovely by Higgins.

Bring on Harkin need some spark

Good passage for the Lions, going up the guts

@canefan Just happy we held onto the ball

Anyone else think we should’ve gone for 3

Nope. This sucks clock and we need more than 3.

Yessss

Good try. Massive kick coming up.

Big mistake at the kickoff

Restart on the half? Since when was that a rule? Or have I just missed it all these years lmfao

Yeah, weird

You couldn't kick the convo. So wtf are we kicking a 50m penalty for?.

If in goal and hasn't touched a player you can immediately ground it. Then it's a scrum on halfway.

Bad kick by Trask.
