          It's so close, but I can't see us win this, unfortunately.

          I get the vibe there is one more score, and the Naki haven't put this away. Fakatava looks a massive threat around the ruck.

          GIVE US SOME EXTRA TIME!

            Potroz has made Naki infinitely worse... also no chance Perofeta is an All Black 10.

              Wasn't that kick for touch taken back?

                Snorters have blown some opportunities late in the game.

                          Who says the NPC is dead.

                          Perofeta will be relieved.

                            Ref didn't make a call on scrums all game until the end....was the right call though. That hurts. Better team won.

                              Congrats Naki, better team on the day.

                              I've got a couple of rants in the chamber but will save them to after you've enjoyed your win.

                              Day ruined now, I don't even care about ABs and Kiwis anymore. 😉 Anyway, off to get some lunch and a beer.

                                Superb final Congratulation Taranaki ,commiserations HB
                                Plenty of ticker in this HB side , just a couple really bad exit moments they will lament
                                Whats crazy is both teams won their first 4 games of the round robin and then lost their next 3

                                  Bugger. So close. Still immensely proud of our team. A great season, and making the final against all expectation. If most of our guys stay in the province, we'll be back stronger next year.

                                  Congrats to @Dan54 and other Naki fans. You've had a great season. Best team on the day, especially your defence, which was outstanding.

                                    @Stargazer was always going to be a tough ask having been on the road for the last 5 weeks and if you count the RS match that was 4 must win matches they needed to get themselves up for , thats some effort
                                    All the very best to Brad Weber and any other players leaving

                                      @Steven-Harris We'll miss Brad and Marino immensely. If Fakatava makes the ABs next year (and there's a good chance he will), we have bit of a problem, although Enari will be back.

                                        Potroz has made Naki infinitely worse... also no chance Perofeta is an All Black 10.

                                        @frugby said in NPC Final! Taranaki vs Hawkes Bay Saturday 21st 2.05pm NZDT!:

                                        Perofeta is not someone you want to take a game-winning shot at goal.

                                        Mabey was very lax at the breakdown. The worst was when Tiatia came running in from the side to counter-ruck right in front of Mabey. Weber knocked on, so justice there.

                                        I do feel for Weber though, as neither final he played in went his way. PGS gets to finish on a high.

                                          Haha, quality from Semple looking to get the swoop. Poor old Jacomb didn't really know how to answer the question, but he is joining the Chiefs for pre-season.
