Nice try with the typical OTT canterbury celebrations.
20 to 14 and game on

Luke deceives the entire Tasman team and scores a very welcome try from a line out.
14 - 20 with 19mins left.

The way they have been playing this year, they have every right to celebrate a try.

Really need to change adv law to a max of number of phases. Application is so inconsistent.

Maul try to Canterbury and missed conversion, then Tasman get a penalty with 1min to go for the 1-point loss. You heard it here first.

Tasman really have poorly managed the game since going 13 up.

Or metres gained? 10m for a free kick and 30m for a penalty?

And they are all leaping up and down again - what happened to a quick tap on the arse as you ran back to halfway.
Cantabs are going to win this - 4 points up with 4 to play.

Yeah. I hate this wendyball sh*t too. The whooping is the worst element.

Again. Poor game management. SH can see it's getting tied up in the maul so get it out: but just stands and watches.

Canterbury in the second half were very good. Now let’s see them do that for 80mins.

Watching the HB vs Manawatu game with the sound muted as I cannot fucking stand Ken Laban's commentary.
0-0 after 15 minutes.

I wonder if they are running out of.... errrr.... steam. They are a side of big units and possibly the intensely physical game they play, at pace, is starting to hurt?

Awful decision by the ref: clear pen to the Magpies but he allowed Turbos to hold on until support finally arrived.

HB in again. Turbos defence getting pretty ragged.
