@Stargazer Will be pretty keen to get a look at Solomone Naiduki , i know of 2 unions that have got him on their radar for this years NPC

@Steven-Harris I wouldn't be surprised if Hawke's Bay is one of those unions, considering 8 to 10 players of last year's backline probably won't be available, this year.

Kicking off soon:

Four minutes of play, Hurricanes score and about 12 water runners run on for the Blues whilst they await the conversion!

Devan Flanders scores the first try!

0 - 7 Canes

Tuipulotu and Craig starting locks instead of listed Beerhe and Darry.
Mckenzie also for Plummer. Lisati-Harris starting for Funaki.

@Daffy-Jaffy Canes also different. Lauaki starting instead of Howden.

@Daffy-Jaffy The Blues 5 looks to be a monster

RTS scores the first try for the Blues.

7 all

Anyone watching from outside NZ? Was wondering whether they've geo-restricted thi stream as well.

@Stargazer It still works with my VPN set on UK.

Howden is starting but he’s in the 19 jersey. And it wouldn’t be Lauaki replacing him anyway because he’s a prop.

@Canes4life Yeah, was looking too much at the numbers.

Flanders scores his second.

7 - 14 Canes

The commentator said Riccitelli scored, but the players were congratulating someone else (James Lay?)?

I gues this shows the limitations of the one camera and low resolution. Can't see properly who is who.

Just dawned on me that only 2 of this Blues starting backline are full squad members. RTS and JRK.

You’d think in this day and age we would be able to see clearly what was going on. Surely someone can provide a better setup than what’s been used for this stream.

Waltzed past Segner who was oblivious.
