Clever mid field grubber from Cooper nearly puts Ioane away but the ball beats him into touch.

Reds steal the lineout, then knock on. Canes kick through and S. Finger and Cooper take out a chaser. Canes penalty 38 out, bit on the side.

Lineout Steal by the Reds, but ill discipline costs them 40 metres and a PK attempt to B Barrett.

Edit: @ Ash, I will bow out gracefully. Your fingers are much faster than mine. If you need fresh fingers to come off the bench with about 20 to go, I'll be on the pine ready.

Shocker from Barrett goes well wide. Wobbly horror kick. Reds take a quick 22 and regather.

Lucas with a sad attempt at an inside flick from the ruck. Went to no-one.

Canes go early. Cooper gives a slightly forward pass to Taps who makes a half break, but ref misses it.

F'Sautia dragged into touch by Savea on the ground. Very strong play from Savea.

Walsh blows a penalty for Reds going off their feet in the ruck after Savea puts in an excellent tackle from a box kick.

Toua caught out there, should have supported Shipperly for a pass, instead entered the ruck and got cleaned out by Savea.

Barrett hits the post, no goal.

Walsh blows another penalty for offside out wide. Must have been a call from the AR. Bit weird, had no effect on the game at all.

Barrett finally gets another. 9 - 6 for the Canes.

21 gone. Penalty fest so far.

Reds good pressure from the kickoff see Perenara with a poor clearing kick to the 22 from the first ruck.

Ioane in the corner after good work from the piggies. Will go to the TMO.
 

Ash

Looks good, Ioane off the ground puts the ball down just inside the field.

Clever switch from Lucas to Ioane after the Reds piggies drove the Canes backwards.
 

Ash

Michael Lynagh (62)
From the lineout 20m out, the Reds forwards drove through the Canes forwards to about 3 out before that try. Canes forwards need to stop the drive.

Cooper's conversion fades just across the front of goal.

11 - 9 after 24.

Perenara grubbers to 10m out from the Reds tryline after they go nowhere in field

Lucas with a poor clearance from the lineout to the 22.
 

Ash

Michael Lynagh (62)
Canes fluff the linout, Reds get a scrum.

Reds get a penalty from the scrum for Franks collapsing. Not sure, as the Canes got a good shove on before the ball was fed.

Lucas in trouble with a shoulder problem.
 

Ash

Michael Lynagh (62)
Genia runs on.........

.........to give out some water.

Reds get another penalty off the lineout for Eaton coming in the side of the maul. They kick to the Canes 22.
 

Ash

Michael Lynagh (62)
Reds knock on 10 out. Canes clear to the Reds half.........then Walsh bizarrely calls it back for the knock on. And apologies to the Canes for it.

Strong Reds scrum drive the Canes back, but Slipper is penalised for driving inwards. Looked fair enough. Canes lineout 40 out from their own line.

Perenara tries the box kick again but only manages to kick it out on the full.
 

Ash

Michael Lynagh (62)
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.
