What a second half. Both sides racking up the points. A total tally of 92 points scored in the past 80 minutes with Tasman taking almost 3/4 of those. Tasman you can see have more pace in their game and sometimes catch Waikato off guard and this was seen through the 8 tries they scored. Waikato did well to manage to get a try bonus point with 4 tries. Thanks for staying tuned to Ultimate Rugby's coverage of today's ITM cup match and we look forward to seeing you back here soon!

Tasman's blindside Tevita Koloamatangi goes over for yet another Tasman try. This time Banks pushes it wide!! 10 from 11 and just 1 minute to go!

How crucial will that be for Waikato! Toby Smith muscles over and that is certainty some consolation. Renata converts. Waikato now with a 4 try bonus point!

Brad Weber sneaks through a gap around the ruck and puts Josh Tyrell through for Waikato's third try. Renata converts.

Tasman's lock Alex Ainley is sent to the sideline for a dangerous tip tackle on Niko Malo. It's hard to argue with that call considering Malo almost landed on his head and now Ainley is facing a suspension.

Tasman 40 points clear with 15 to go

Banks is in the most impressive form I've seen to date. The flyhalf with 10 from 10 with only an hour gone shows no sign of missing.

Squires makes the bust and new Chiefs signing, James Lowe, puts on the afterburners for the try. Banks converts and the lead is becoming embarrassing for Waikato

Normal order resumes with Tasman scoring their fifth. A switch of play found rampaging number eight Liam Squire who scores in the corner. Banks converts!

A more entertaining second half to date with more game play and less scrums
