SF: Canterbury v Hawkes Bay
-
Very good play by HB, pinning us down our end and then building pressure.
-
I hope Flanders can stay fit. He’d be easily a better 6/8 option for the ABs than Finau. His issue is staying fit though unfortunately.
-
Decent move by the Cantabs, made good metres. Can’t finish off though.
-
HB worked hard to get themselves back in that. Flanders and Fakatava playing well and looking dangerous. Rakete-Stones also looking solid. Huge second half needed. Come on Hawkes bay, it’s possible!

Finau is in the squad as a 6/5 option so hes not really comparable to Flanders. The 6/8 options are Parker and Sititi. Personally Im not opposed to Flanders being in the squad over either of those players. I'd definitely have him in the squad over Kirifi who shouldn't be there with Savea and Lakai in the squad.

I wouldn’t be opposed to Flanders taking Kirifi’s spot especially considering Jacobson can also play 7. I’d have Flanders over Finau as a 6 option as well.

@Landers92 Rakete Stones playing with an MCL tear hence the heavy strapping on his Knee , be surprised if he comes in the 2nd half
-
Great rip by Bell. McLeod grubbers a 50/22.
-
Pathetic option by Sullivan. Just give it back to Canterbury.
-
Fakatava has bailed Zarn out there… wow. Terrible option from Zarn a few phases earlier
-
No direction coming from Knewstubb.
-
Absolutely bombed try from HB there
-
How did HB not score that?
-
Hawke’s Bay have got to nail these chances

Justin Marshall somehow talking up Canterbury after being under the pump from HB the last 5mins


the guy is something else -
Good build up by the Good Guys.
22-14 Good Guys

McClutchie has been heavily disappointing for HB tonight.

Bell is playing a whale of a game.
