Ryan Gayler has the ball. He drives forward and gains 6 metres. Amiya Shreyas rips the ball from him in the tackle. Excellent work there, and possession is turned over!

Jonty Rhodes with the ball on the run here. He's already gained 6 metres. It looks like he's going to be tackled by Jamie Lyons but he manages to offload to Chad Dyer in time. Chad Dyer decides to run. He breaks the line with ease going straight through Lyons' tackle there. Dyer glides towards the line.

Great work by the Typhoons. They've secured their own ball from a good put in.

37.00

The Typhoons are camped out in Einherjar's 22m zone, but they just can't grab the try their efforts deserve.

The move finally ends as Downpipes pushes Dyer into touch....

 

HALF TIME

70% possession and territory for the Typhoons and over 10 minutes in Einherjar's 22. You have to give it to Einherjar for holding out as they just couldn't get the ball out of their own half for the last 10 minutes.

 

44.45


James Torres of the Typhoons gets tackled by Rusty Downpipes and a ruck forms. The ruck is contested but the Typhoons show good ball security and extracate the ball from the ruck.

The whistle goes though. Someone has been penalised for being offside at the ruck. That'll be a penalty to the Typhoons.

Zohaib Ikram kicks for touch, 4m out from the halfway line. Great kick. That finds touch 15 metres upfield. The players run up to form the line out.

 

Good, that means I'm doing an alright job.
