NSW Country Eagles v Melbourne Rising, NRC round 5, Orange Saturday 20 September

Good crowd, helped considerably by the food and wine stalls at the back. Someone's organised a "Grazing at the Rugby" show here.

The whole match has been played in the Eagles 22. Scrummie just scored, Eagles 0 Rising 8. In again under the posts by English. Should be 0-16.

Eagles in under the posts by the 10, 8-16.

After the onslaught of the first five mins the game's turning out to be an armwrestle.
