@ARHS I'm expecting them to change around a bit depending on reserves etc. Carter actually looked pretty good at centre in the preseason game and scored a couple of trys but Ta$man may be a different story.

@Bovidae said in BOP v Ta$man:

Vakasiuola

He went off in the preseason game with a head knock so maybe concussion .

Updated Ta$man side:

1 Ryan Coxon, 2 Joshua Te Hira, 3 Sam Matenga, 4 Quinten Strange, 5 Lopeti Faifua, 6 Jonathan Lee, 7 Ethan Blackadder, 8 Fletcher Anderson, 9 Mitchell Drummond, 10 William Havili, 11 Macca Springer, 12 David Havili, 13 Levi Aumua, 14 Timoci Tavatavanawai, 15 Kyren Taumoefolau

Resereves: 16 Tomasi Maka, 17 Tom Heywood, 18 Kershawl Sykes-Martin, 19 Hunter Leppien, 20 Tayne Hemopo, 21 Mason Lund, 22 Cooper Grant, 23 Nic Sauira

Christie removed from this match.. and a few other changes on the reserves bench

Strong start BOP

Trask scores after a lot of phases

Thats a Red Card imo

Aimed high, hit high with force. Has to be upgraded to a red

Springer had time to look inside earlier

It stayed a yellow??

@Duluth Yep

Looked bad on the few replays shown

Amua showing some good pace to scramble back

10-0 BOP at HT

A surprise that Ta$man are scoreless after a half of rugby

The commentator seems to have gotten Lasaqa mixed up with Narawa a few times.

Been impressed by Fehi Fineanganofo playing 12 today

Havili absolutely palmed off by Leroy. Embarrassing

Judd putting in a master class of how to exit from your 22

For once the ref calls a man in front of the kick and it wasn't. Justice done with the pen missed

Gee BOP have been impressive today

@KiwiMurph the makeshift midfield has done well

Really felt we were starting to crumble when Ta$man eventually scored but we've been superb since then.
