From my point of view today.... Hawkes Bay took the most of the opportunity they got in the first 1/2 totally against the run of play. From then on, in Declan Edges most common saying, 'Canterbury lost their shape'. There was too much room in the midfield and Canterbury's game fell away. If Canterbury continued as they started they would have won the game.
Canterbury also (I can't believe I am saying this) definitely missed Kamo. As they say you don't notice something until they are gone. He is definitely worth his $ per game.
