NRC Rnd 5: NSW Country Eagles v Perth Spirit

[GunnerDownUnder]

Foxtel fella told me the schedule was already set, hence no early match. Beautiful sunny day, loads of cuzzy bros. Jock can do the score updates.

Nah your equipment looks for more pro than mine!

You show me ours and I'll show you mine.

HT something like 24-16 to the Eagles. No one's minding the scoreboard.

 

[Hugh Jarse]

Robinson scores and its 16-0 both tries have come with eagles down to 14

Not a surprise to see that Folau Fainga'a was carded. How many has he had? It seems that he has spent a fair bit of time in the naughty boys seat recently.

Approaching oranges, Spirit hit back with a couple of meat pies of their own.
Eagles 24 (Gordon x 2, Robinson t, Adams 3 c ) Spirit 16 (Tapuae, Eden t, Lance x 2 C)

Trying conditions, slight breeze up here in the stands. Jock dragged his kilt over to the Pfitzy/Lindo domain. Eagles pressing the Spirit line, 5mins gone.

Lineout on halfway, some lovely interpassing from the Eagles backs, Gordon over under the posts. 32-16.

This Jake Gordon seems to go alright

32-16 despite what the score on the screen suggest. Pfitzy as you got up in the boradcast box. Can you tell them to update the score.

Is the ref Nic Berry?

Yup

Jono Lance playing well, nice dart from a ruck with a prop trailing. Pfitzy wets himself. Penalty from a scrum, Eagles clear to Spirit 10m line.

 

[Lindommer]

Spirit pressing inside the Eagles 22m, 20mins gone in second half.

Some champagne rugby being played in this match.

Lovely run from the Spirit reserve scrummie, they go over wide out. 32-24, 25mins gone.

Goody dart from Gordon, Godwin trailed through beautifully and scores next to the posts. 40-24.

 

[Lindommer]

Eagles 20 grabbed the ball in the scrummie's hands from an offside position, YC.

 

[Hugh Jarse]

The Jake Gordon show?

Eagles 20 grabbed the ball in the scrummie's hands from an offside position, YC.

Eagles 20 is Sam Croke.

With 69 gone on the clock when Croke was shown the cheese, Eagles will basically have to close the game out with 14 players.

5mins to go, piggies gasping for breath. Play beaks down in the Eagles half.
