Aumua in again, Morgan converts. 24-0.
Another driving maul try to Aumua. Converted by Morgan.
24 - 0 to Wellington after 26 and half minutes.
Next try scored by Losi Filipo. He deserved that one. One of the better backs in this game. PU-J very quiet thus far.
It's getting very windy, but the try is converted.
31 - 7 Wellington. Three minutes to go in this half.
@Stargazer long phase of play by South Canterbury but they hardly advanced a metre. Wellington defense has been strong but running into this wind must be difficult.
Isi Saumaki and TJ Clarke in for two quick tries after the half.
Bird has gone off, big Pettett comes on.
Aumua in for another, that's four tries for him now.
Delany having a fine game setting up that try.
Morgan misses another, maybe he should give the kicking tee to TJ Clarke.
55-7 to Wellington. 48 mins gone.
Making their debuts James Douglas comes on for Aumua and Chicago Doyle comes on for Losi Filipo.
Logan Henry has also come on for Preston.
@Canes4life said in Wellington vs South Canterbury (RS):

Bird has gone off, big Pettett comes on.
How's Plummer playing
@Winger he's been solid without being spectacular. I really like the look of Anthony Pettett, who's bigger than Hugo. I think he has a slightly higher workrate aswell.
Both Pettett and Plummer will be playing for Super contracts this year. Plummer is just under 2m and Pettett is slightly over, they are both young aswell (around 23 I think).
Pettett is an interesting one, he came through the Wellington Academy with Taine Plumtree and Naitoa Ah Koui but then had a 2 year break after falling out of love with the game. He came back this year and has been starring for Johnsonville in Wellington Club rugby. He's the type of lock the Canes should be locking down. Tall, big, young and has a high work-rate.
