I don't understand scrums

@Canes4life I don’t think I’d be comfortable with that Japanese prop coming on.

Fucking get the ball halfback. Just staring at it,

He's pretty average

No dog in this fight but cheering for the Bay.
Would be a great underdog story.

What happens if draw after extra time?

What happens if draw after extra time?

Most tries wins, if same tries welly wins cos they won the in season game

@Hooroo
Winner is most tries in this game
If even, then the winner of their Round Robin (which was Wellington)

Who has most tries? (In Bali and only watching updates through you guys)

Wellington will have to withstand 10 minutes into the wind before that

Welly 3, BoP 2

Taking the 50m pen when you didn't even have the distance on a 30m conversion, then backing it up with a hilarious drop goal attempt and a ridiculous knock on.

That’s why we all prefer Harkin.

Eastbourne to save the day.

This will be shit if the 20 mins ends with no score or a draw and it goes to most tries or whatever. Massive anti climax.

I'm exhausted

Typical NZ tactic.
Making ground driving, eventually get sick of it, go for the miracle chip kick.

Didn't Apisai go off injured? How is he allowed to return to the field

23-20 7 to go

BOP going for it

Halaholo needed to shift straight away

3 to go, welly line out, close to their own try line

That's game.

Shoulder to the head. Where's the TMO?

Come on boys just hold it and kick it out.

Yeah, only a penalty, but Def penalty

1:15 to go, welly scrum on half way

Smart going for the scrum.

Great scrum.

Choice!

Great game, welly win it

Yesss boys.

Hard luck BOP, well bloody played.

A most un-Wellington like win. Ugly as, showed real grit. BOP were more than worthy, could have easily won the game. It's a cliche but it's a shame there had to be a loser. Although I'm glad it was them...

Dramatic final..! congratulations Wellington
Commiserations Bop
The 2 best teams in the comp ,small moments
Great way to finish what was a superb NPC season
Hope you were watching Mark Robinson

At least it didn't end on a boundary/try countback I suppose....

Classic how Harkin was able to slot the goal and kick his clearance out of our half while into the wind

Well done Wellington. One heck of a final.

Well played Wellington

Yeah he will start next year surely.

Like I said, EB to the rescue.

Congratulations Wellington. Fun watch. Both teams sustaining high phases on both attack and defence - impressive.

Player of the match and the season for me was Riley Higgins. He had some crucial touches in that game that turned the momentum in our favour.

Were they in the first half? He was pretty ordinary in the second.
