Good first half! Match is close, plenty of turnovers keeping every pass interesting. Looking forward to the second half!

Conradie made that run look easy.
Super impressive try. Couldn't believe he got the ball down before his knee hit in touch
The Flying Fijian!
Let's see the replay a couple more times. Not because the try call was questionable, just to revel in that close by Balekana.
What an exciting half. Can't ask for much more in a championship match.
Well post has been up for two days and still don't see it on lemmy.one or sh.itjust.works. Paging a few regulars to get it sent out.
Checking in from Lemmy.one
I wasn't expecting this, but apparently the match is streaming on https://foxsports.com/live after all! In addition to breaking out an antenna there's also free trials of a multitude of streaming services such as DirecTV Stream, Fubo, Hulu+Live, Sling, YouTubeTV, and I'm sure plenty more.
Really miss Balekana down here in Houston
Seeing it on Lemmy.world.
gracias amigo!
I have to say I'm quite surprised to see Scott Green had no appointments for the entire 2023 playoff season! Just glad we don't have Anselmi helming the final.
Free Jacks should have brought Rene Rancourt from Boston for the anthem.
that was crazy
That was a b-e-a-utiful offload!
The exponential improvement in teams' kicking games since the start of MLR is impressive.
Balekana brings the BOOM
I hope he scores today.
well, not the result I wanted but it was a great match to the end
San Diego is no 0-2 in the championship, the league's first cursed team?
Two minutes left. Does San Diego goof or does NE get a penalty?
Ope, San Diego goofs.
and at a time when a drop goal would get them back in the lead.
That was a huge gap to leave open for Malan that close to the try line.
San Diego is just making so many mistakes.
Ha, I feel the same about NEFJ. Clean it up! Says the person sipping a drink from their air conditioned living room.
And then they do that! Try Augspurger!
Another mishandling turnover by Legion!
Let's go, FreeJacks!
Wooot,
spoiler
Potroz getting his kick blocked
spoiler tags are weird here. I had to edit that comment a good half dozen times
Appreciate the effort there, I think I'll refine the spoilers rule though, to no spoilers in post titles/bodies. Anybody clicking into a match thread, especially during the match, should be expecting spoilers within I think.
Lol, fair. It was mostly to try out their spoiler tag formatting. I don't really like it from the browser, will have to see what it looks like from mobile apps later.
not very good on LiftOff, appears to just be showing the text literally, ignoring the spoiler markdown entirely.
The Connect app is ignoring the spoiler tags too. And Jerboa too. Bummer.
That sucks. I'm surprised to hear Jerboa too, since main developer works on Lemmy itself too.
Is that guy unconscious?
oh there he goes.
off the field now though.
I love clutch defensive tackles like that one on MacDonald! And then those diving touch line tries like Balekana!
What is that, the third mishandle turnover by Nonu?
If he had any one of those back, the outcome could have been SD on top. What a match.
Huzzah!
Appreciate the level of technical commentary here; pointing out Wilson shifting up to Potroz's spot to take some of the beatings.
agree. hope they can have more like it on a regular basis next season.
Another blocked kick. People were speaking some concerns for NE's starting forward pack put they're not slouching.
Huh? I thought MLR didn't allow for more than one scrum reset.
Yeah I was thinking the same. I wonder if SDL ownership will file a complaint or inquiry.
