Hawke's Bay inside the Wellington 22 and West was hit late and a little high and is still down.

Long kick by West but it swung towards the left hand post and strikes it. Wellington dot it down and restart with a 22 drop out

Ripia knocks on and we will have our first scrum of the night

Ash Dixon leads the sides out on his 50th game. Not far away from kick off

Welcome to the next installment of the Ranfurly Shield from McLean Park. Win-less Wellington are 7 losses from 7 and sitting rooted to the bottom of the Premiership as they travel to Napier to take on Hawke's Bay who are second on the Championship and have successfully defended the shield a few times now. This is going to be a tough outing for the visitors but Shield Fever brings out a little something different. We hope you enjoy the coverage of the game
