Otago look fitter and are handling the pace better
Definitely showed in the final 10-12 minutes of that half and they were down a man too.
Otago loosies getting the better of their counterparts
Bay backs do have that game breaking ability and have created chances despite some of the forwards with hands on hips.
Excellent game

Cam Millar has been very good. I had never seen him carrying so often.
We don't want him carrying!
Brilliant first half ,outta breath watching on the couch
This is another step up from last weekend’s quarter finals
For me the real difference is the ruck speed of Otago’s ball and they are winning most of contestable kicks .
Richard Judd has possibly got the best box kick going around but I don’t believe that tactic will win them the game
Starting to wonder why the Highlanders have gone after Jacomb
Miller looks more than solid and fair to say he can take a hit
@ACT-Crusader What you meant to say is that Wheeler makes Meg sound intelligent.
Juts had a quick Look at the stats. Our forwards are completely out working BoP. Also doing a good job of slowing their breakdown down with 30% of BoP rucks being over 6+ seconds compared to just 8% for Otago.
Whigam, Tucker, and Haig all on 10+ tackles. Just need to keep the speed up
That 5:40mins was absolutely brilliant. Bashed them to bits on defence, then just took them apart on attack. Fuck that was satisfying to watch
Pledger’s pass really is a thing of beauty. Both ways too.
Millar is very good but a huge gap in the Bay defensive line.
Casey has shades of Matt Todd in the way he plays.

The best game I have ever seen carrying wise from him. Only driven off the ball once.
@Grooter said in SF: Otago v BoP:
Millar looking like a young Nick evans tonight
ha ha the defensive line from BoP has been weak through that channel, so i wouldnt go that far 
@Steven-Harris said in SF: Otago v BoP:
The pressure Otago is putting on Bop at breakdown is relentless
yep being killed in this area
Nareki has had an excellent game but he has also spent a bit of time slow to get to his feet.
Get him off.
@bayimports definitely getting outplayed but as an impartial your not getting a lot of love from Williams , just seen a blatant side entry by the home team totally ignored
