Good to see Rayasi in action, no doubt the guy is a talent but not sure I always like him. Seems to have a bit of the Reiko attitude about him at times.

I wonder if he will stay out on the wing, could be a bit of a SBW about him.

Kerist! Make up your mind who he has about him, for fuck's sake!

Manawatu says HOLD MY BEER

Kick misses so 36 - - 30 with 6 mins

Is this must win for Canterbury? Not that I can see them winning if even if they make the semis.

Pretty close to it. A bp win would put them ahead of Wellington but losing leaves us way behind the leading teams.

A BP victory isn’t looking likely.

At least we have started a lot better than in earlier games.

Canterbury up 18-12 at HT but with Romano in the bin.

Hope Sam Darry gets some time on the park.

Disastrous end to the half. To be honest we deserve it for trying to wind the clock down to half time. Needless, negative rugby. :thumbdown:

Not sure how Romano got carded but not Kirifi when he did the same thing down the other end.

Shit luck for Wellington, but why would they attempt such an intricate backline move in such good field position with just 20 seconds left for the 1st half of extra time? It was a bad call.

Wellington can only blame themselves. Had all the extra time territory and possession. Garden-Bachop is gash.

An intercept in golden point certainly went down smooth :lol: :lol:

We had no right to win that, but Wellington only themselves to blame. They had every opportunity to ice that game. Is JGB the white Cameron?

Burke an instant improvement on Cameron and must be persisted with.

Been at a 50th, blimey, memories. :wtf:

But really, you're going to take that pathetic excuse for a win. Well of course you will, you're a fil;thy Cantab. Without Bachop, though, Canterbury are grovelling toast. How embarrassing is it that you have to rely on the worst player in the comp to win, with an intercept no less.

Well done! :clap:

Fuck me, well done Canterbury but what a battle of two fucking hopeless five eighths.

Cameron does all he can to shit the bed with his hopeless control of the game but then Garbage-Bachop manages to out shit him by missing an easy droppie and then throwing the game losing pass straight to the Canterbury centre.

:lol:

Rest easy in the knowledge neither of these useless cunts will ever grace the black jersey from here on in. It's ridiculous Brett Cameron has one cap as it stands.

Fuck me, beware of the kind of mouth breather who live commentates games on stuff.co.nz.

The latest handicapped child has talked up Garbage-Bachop like he's actually one of the players of the match.

Dear oh dear.

Does Canterbury have a hidden workshop where they just keep pumping out 1st 5s?
Very impressive showing by the young man.
