Yeah, I am surprised that he didn't make the cut, thought he had played very well in the CRC.

Game is being live streamed, legally, here: http://t.co/6LN6tgG09d

Very choppy though.

Poor condtions, that's not good news for the Blues.

 

[canadafan]

It isn't, and apparently they do need the 4 try bonus point win.

Forwards game so far, not good for the Blues.

 

[canadafan]

Try to the Wolf Pack, I mean the Rock!

 

[LittleGuy]

Not looking good for Ontario in the first 20, need to hope they can wear down the Rock , still plenty of time.

I think there is a path to the trophy without the BP but it would have to be a 35 or so point win which after that Rock try looks incredibly unlikely. Might as well not take penalty attempts even this early in the game.

 

[canadafan]

Brave call on the knock on.

 

[canadafan]

Blues back to full strength.

 

[LittleGuy]

Yellow card now, this is getting tougher and tougher for us. Still think we might win the game but winning the cup chces decreasing minute by minute

 

[canadafan]

Apparently Rock have a guy in the sinbin now.

 

[canadafan]

7-5 to Blues.

 

[canadafan]

Lol, Assmus keeps playing.

 

[canadafan]

14-5 to Blues, they are picking up steam now.

 

[canadafan]

Blues are 1 try away now.

 

[canadafan]

Blues have the BP.

In happier news, Hassler has scored for the Osprey today.

 

[LittleGuy]

Great win by the Blues, Rock are truly terrible had two remotely competitive games this season. Really hard to pick who was actually better between the Blues and Pack this season, both teams could have won the Mactier cup.

 

[LittleGuy]

So the final standings were.....

1. Ontario Blues. 5 Wins, 1 Loss, 4 Bonus Points, 24 Points. +99 difference.
2. Prairie Wolf Pack. 5 Wins, 1 Loss, 3 Bonus Points, 23 Points. + 95 difference.
3. British Columbia Bears. 2 Wins, 4 Losses, 2 Bonus Points, 10 Points. -13 difference.
4. Atlantic Rock. 6 Losses, 1 Bonus Point, 1 Point. - 181 difference.

Congrats to the Blues, gutted for the Pack though.

 

[canadafan]

Will be very interesting to see the ARC side.

 

[LittleGuy]

Will be very interesting to see the ARC side.

Should be dominated by Blues and Pack, expect some of the well known BC guys to make it to, Rock might send Parfrey and maybe another token guy that will ride the pine.
