Barrett hits the posts again. Still 18 - 12 to the Reds, 18 to go. Barrett has missed three now, enough to put them in front.

Cross field kick to Leulua (can't spell it!) beats a compressed Reds defnsive line. He gathers, passes, another kick ahead. Shipperley cleans up. Canes counter ruck, and Walsh blows a penalty to the Reds. Bizarre. Then marches the Canes 10m. Reds miss touch. Canes kick to Morahan, who...

Leulua with a good run from the kick off and Canes with a good clearance kick. Reds counter, and Franks tackles Toua. Not spectacular from Toua. Morahan forces a pass to Taps' ankles, and Taps duly knocks on. Too many forced passes and plays from the Reds.

Walsh blows a whistle for S. Finger with a low tackle around the ankles. The call is no arms. Marginal, but fair enough. Ioane off, fair enough. He's had an error ridden game. Morahan on. Barrett kicks the penalty. 18 - 12 to the Reds, 24 to go.

27 to go, as as Franks struggles, limping. Cooper hit as he passes the and he is struggling. Ioane loses the ball in the ruck and gifts a turnover.

Simmons and Schatz run to the same hole but Frisby passed to the second player, and it's obstruction. Poor timing. Canes with a lineout on the 22 but Simmons steals it. Messy ball for the Reds and Cooper can only clear to 15 out from deep in goal. Canes get a lineout cleanly now. Their...

Cooper and Gill with good pressure and tackle on Taylor from a box kick. They drive him out and get the lineout.

A strong run from Taps also helped after Frisby cleared the messy ball from the scrum. Cooper gets the conversion. 18 - 9 to the Reds.

Reds get a tight head, and Simmons dives over one phase later. First try for Simmons.

Perenara looked to be well offside at the scrum. Reds go back to the forwards. Reds knock on 4m out.

Gets get a penalty 5 out after a good run from Gill. Thought that maybe the penalty should have gone the other way for holding on. Reds take a quick tap and throw it wide. Barrett rushes up and tries to take a one handed intercept but knocks it on.

Reds drive through the Canes scrum and Shields knocks on at the back. Good scrum Reds.

Cooper makes a half break but Reds again force passes and knock on. Canes kick out on the full but Walsh calls it back for the knock on.

Frisby on for Lucas at half time. Guess the shoulder got to him.

Did you see the Canes' hand hook the ball backwards? Well, it looked like it.

Canes mess it up midfield, Walsh rules accidental offside, and the half is over. Poor half of rugby. No continuity whatsoever. 11 - 9 to the Reds.

S. Finger with a poor throw, goes over the lineout. Reds give away another penalty, but the Canes go 20m downfield and the advantage ends. Eaton finally knocks on. Reds counter then knock on as well. Savea kicks through, then Toua messes it up 5m out. Toua has not had a good game. Looks...

Reds rushing on the Canes out wide. Canes knock on, then Eaton compounds it by giving away a penalty (looked harsh though).

Ball gets out to Savea unmarked after some good quick passes and he makes a break down the line. Inside ball to Perenara who grubbers, but the ball goes dead. Super restartfrom the Cooper sees Quirk take the ball on the full. Cooper then kicks to the Canes 22. Good play Reds.

Messy unstructure game so far. Reds knock on again and Canes kick out on the full with a counter attack chance. Poor game so far, execution lacking. Reds seem to be trying to force passes instead of being patient. Canes look vulnerable in the forwards.
