Geez that was 1 tough slog. Yeah, we won, but I'm not seeing it from us. We don't make the finals this year imo.
Canes, don't wanna sound like a dixk, but how on earth do you lose to that Blues side twice.

Well to be fair we had half our side out the first game, but no excuses tonight, the Canes fluffed that big time.
Must win against the Crusaders next week.

Absolutely huge call to have Tangitau come off… that has to be injury related
Don't think he was even playing.

BB back to playing like a debutante with no idea about options and the occasional glimpse of skill.
back to?
I think it was his last game he looked mostly accomplished as a super rugby player.

The Blues kicked off this season largely disregarding the attacking DNA they developed en route to the title last season, but are now rediscovering that playstyle.
Having set the tone in 2024 by carrying a competition-high 135 times per game, the Blues managed to top that number tonight with some devastating pick-and-go rugby. You know when Finlay Christie steps back from the action that play is about to get physical, and that’s exactly what happened at Eden Park.
The Blues chewed through 139 carries against the Hurricanes and had some of their best moments of the season with the ball in hand.
