S4, R2: Vikings vs. Hurricanes (vBookie), (RS)

64.00

Leumas Himann penalised for being offside at the ruck. Yes, the replays clearly show it. Marshall goes for the 3 points to get the Vikings within a penalty/drop goal of the Canes. It clears the posts with ease

Vikings 24 - 27 Hurricanes

 

Theo to be out of the team for the next game imo

 

68.30

10m on the Vikings side of the halfway line. Vikings desperately looking for a try to get them in the game here.

Jacobs with the ball and he spots James with a bit of space out wide if he can exploit it. Jacobs puts the ball on his toe and puts through the grubber...

 

...but he's overhit the grubber and the ball is picked up by Son. The Vikings line is in disarray and he exploits the space with ease. Jacobs chases him, but can only force him towards touch. He can't prevent the try.

Dyer misses the conversion.

Vikings 24 - 32 Canes

 

72-78m

Hurricanes just seem content to tick down the clock as the ball remains within 10m of the halfway line for a fair while. Playing possession rugby at the moment.

 

78.00

Jonty Rhodes penalised for incorrect entry at the gate at the breakdown. Penalty to the Vikings. Can the Vikings make anything from it?

Jacobs kicks for touch. Line out 19m from the Hurricanes line.

 

...Good line out, taken by Retzel.

Retzel to Marshall and he spreads the ball out wide. Ben Herd receives and goes on a run. He slips through the attempted tackle from Weaver.

Only 3m from the line and he slips out a no-look pass to Cambridge who's up his shoulder and he's through.

Important conversion for Marshall... And he slots it calmly over.

Vikings 31 - 32 Hurricanes

Only 30s left on the clock. The Canes will be praying to gain possession from the restart.
