Hurricanes v Brumbies
-
@Stargazer said in Hurricanes v Brumbies:
Hmm, that tackle on Jane was borderline ...
Seems it was well timed....and was brought down on his back so not that unsafe.
-
Canes look so soft. No numbers to breakdown, what was that kick by Shields. Expecting to just roll them
-
Please don't ever chip kick the ball again Shields.
-
Canes seem to look a bit panicky - looking to score the spectacular try off every posession.
If they just play structured rugby they continually wear them down and then the opportunities come.
Some cracking breakout work from the Brumbies though - their 3rd try was a peach.
-
who is the fluffybunny on the sideline kicking the ball in front of the camera
-
You know you're playing shit when you make the Brumbies look like a scintillating attacking team.
-
Aus teams have won something like 3 of the last 40 odd encounters with NZ sides...canes gonna ruin that record
-
-
Lack of on field leadership for the canes.
-
Brumbies got out of jail there, scrum completely demolished on their own line but they dive on the ball and get away with it.
As @MajorRage says the Canes just need to play percentages and we'll run away with it in the end. Don't need to try and blow teams off the park in the first 40, it's the final 20 that guys like the Barrett's and Savea's come into their own.
-
Well that was pretty shit.
Bold prediction. BB will save the day late in the 2nd half. Again.
Forwards killing it in the scrums but leadership lacking. Aso should remain on the wing.
-
@Rancid-Schnitzel hopefully a halftime rev up will see the canes play some actual rugby and just pull away without needing anyone to save the day!
-
It's testament to how shit Aussie rugby is that the Aussie commentators are talking about this scoreline with absolute disbelief.
-
If the canes lose this, it should be the death of any top level sport at McLean Park
