Good to see O'Neill is playing. When he left the field last Sunday I feared he had a serious injury.

Perofeta looks so good in broken play

CM showing plenty of courage to stay in the fight .

Sweet finish by Ormond.

I reckon that Ormond try was out, foot out simultaneous with place of try.

@mikedogz really great desperation from Martin ,great to see despite the final result

I'm liking the look of Taulani. Good reward for his impact as a substitute for the last few weeks.

Game on! We got to hold this lead.

Excellent try, ENS beating defenders and setting up Kuridrani.

Good work by Motuga and ENS in the lead-up to that try.

Motuga is having a very good game.

Perofeta showing he still is such an up and down player..

@Steven-Harris he's a 15 not a 10.

Milo-Harris' service is so poor.

@KiwiMurph on saying that , to see 2 drop outs from halfway in the same game is not acceptable wether you play 10 or 15 ..played all his rugby at Whanganui Collegiate as 10 ..

I was wondering where Boshier was. He's been mostly invisible in this game.

Terrible from Taumateine , your forwards are working overtime , and you put a high kick from an Indirect free kick straight into touch ..seriously ..!

ENS finally flourishing at 15's this year

@mikedogz I havent watched him the past few weeks, but prior to that I thought he was average at best.

Perofetas attempted tackle on ENS was pitiful..and that was defending as a 15..
