Just over an hour to go.

Hope the heat is not to oppressive and tiring for the lads. Tough enough without that.

Shout loud those there and beware the neighbours watching at home with windows and doors open!!

BT showing The Sting. That’s the spirit needed today.

Looking forward to this one. We look powerful in the front 8 again but can the backs click. Umaga could be the key if he can get enough ball.

Could watch that before every match - never fades!

BT saying pitch temperature in the stadium is currently 30 degrees.

Looks like quite a few seats available.  Should prove to authorities that a bit more time between matches would get more there.

Imagine how well that first ice cold beer would go down in the changing room if they get a win.

Just that thought alone should spur them on!!

Hislop for Harris on the bench

Harris out pre match, replaced by Hislop. Not a good start.

If may be an 80 minute game, but you forget the 45 minute warm up beforehand.
These guys are so fit.
Especially in this heat.

At work so have watch later but will keep an eye on this site. Really excited about the game, time for this lots of lads to make history for themselves

We cannot give them broken field - it's like watching the Blues in SR this morning....

[Neils]

Malakai trying adventurous passes - please stop.

[hopwood]

Both teams are currently cancelling each other out…with fine displays of tackling so far.

Quite a scrap on the ground, both sides jacking well. Not a day to get isolated.
