    After the season we had last, this has been a major downer

    Enari on to cock it up.

    Taking Roigard off in the 72nd min for a player like Enari… coach deserves to lose after that

    Totally agree, unless he is injured, he could pay a few more minutes.
    Makes no sense, just because you have a crappy sub, you don't have to put them on the field.

    This must be a candidate for the worst try bomb ever in Super Rugby since the tournament started in 1996. Can anyone think of one worse?

    Well I enjoyed that game regardless of result. Canes probably blew it, but some went better than I thought. Harkin regardless of his brain explosion went a bit better than I thought he would, thought Gallagher went well when he came on.
    I actually liked the reffing of the breakdown, he just seemed to let everything go, and it was chaos, which I enjoy (probably from when I played?).
    All in all 2 of the happest teams after this result, Brumbies and Chiefs, they get to play a couple of teams that will be a bit extra tired next week, and neither of them made inroads in their spots on ladder last night.

    Anybody else see Tizzano make contact with PUJ shoulder on head and get away with it in the first half. PUJ went down not long after but yet no review bloody incredible.

    I thought it looked like that too, but pretty sure the ref said it was chacked.

    I can only assume he thought it was a faster player than Nic White. Even then, attempting an awkward pass like that when he had an unmarked wing outside him was bizarre.

    I didn't see the first 30 minutes but overall how did Love go at 10?

    Ok, for a first game there for ages. Better than hohepa by a few billion miles

    Passing was very noticeably laboured for a 10, but like you say, probably no worse than Hohepa. Worth persisting with.

    The concern for the Hurricanes will be the HIAs if the players fail the later tests, particularly if Aumua is out.

    There won't be a worse bombed try than Harkin's in 2025.

    Ruben Love is not a 10. Hopefully Godfrey is back soon.

    @MacDazzler Would swap Harkin and Love around.

    @Dan54 I didn’t hear that weird it looked like some shoulder on head contact.

    @mikey07 Makes sense. Harkin is clearly a better 10 and Love much better fullback.

    @MacDazzler 100% agree found it weird that love was at 10 yet Harkin played the whole of the NPC at 10.

    Not if that bombed try is an indication of his passing.

    @antipodean that looked as though he panicked a bit? If he had just backed himself he probably would have scored it himself with his pace.

    @Biorealism My first thought watching it live was he tried to be too cute improving the angle for a conversion and just threw a horrible pass.

    If he'd just run it in we'd be in a much stronger position right now

    TBH when watching live I thought White was closing down the space so thought the pass was the right idea, the execution not so much.
