    Woohoo! I watched this team lose bloody four finals in a row, and was in the stands for two of them. They finally did it.

      22 years. Wellington really stepped up in the 2nd half.

        22 years of waiting. Blackwell, Kirifi, Bird, Numia the unsung heroes of this team.

        Sheck deserves a Hurricanes contract, he’s stepped up time and time again.

        Commiserations Cantabs.

        Man I am happy.

          Was supporting Wellington in this game.... but jeez, Kirifi really is a dick, innit?
          Between his antics, and the partisan crowd at a dodgy Wgtn Sports Bar... if it had been anybody but ChCh, or Akl, I'd have considered switching allegiance.

            Love, Higgins and Lakai are all All Blacks of the future.

              Agree on Sheck. He got his chances and really took it

                      Congrats to Wellington.

                      Canterbury probably missing All Black XV player Finlay Brewis. Would have made all the difference.

                        Wellington easily the best side over the last month

                        AB xv forward selections look dodgy

                        Yeah they play a very good pattern and they’ve got the speed and go forward to make the most of it.

                              He is a knob. On that last scrum pen he just decided to aggressively shove a cantab when he was walking back, for no reason.

                              Hei aha.

                              Woooo the fucken hoooo!

                                Fantastic Final ,incredible performance from the Lions not just in this match but to string such an unbeaten run together over the season truly amazing
                                Nga mihinui ki a koutou Wellington Lions
                                Possibly the best forward performance i have seen from a Lions pack in a very long time thought that final score flattered the Cantabs
                                Congrats to the lions supporters on the thread

                                        Kirifi really is a dick

                                        biggest dickhead in NZ Rugby

                                        Well done Wellington, played bloody well.

                                        Don't know what Kirifi has done, apart from play well, he surely captains the team well.

                                        Look, I'm also from the 'Naki... and understand the instinct for a bit of provincial patriotism.
                                        The guy's a grub.
                                        Constant after-the-ball stuff. Shoving, mouthing off, just... being a dick.
                                        “Oh... you want the game to be tiddly-winks!”
                                        No. I want to be able to have a beer with my opponent after the match.

                                        Well the I haven't heard of any opposition not wanting to have a beer with him, same as Colesy, man I want some agression on field! And listen to him speak after the game just now, class!
