woulda been tempted to give Lam a run at 14 over Goosen.
Yep. Goosens did some great things back in the earlier rounds but has been pants ever since. Lam looked bloody good when he came on last week.
At the risk of incurring Siam's wrath, I'd still prefer the centres pushed out one spot, i.e. Jordie, Laumape and then Asdo on the wing.
-
Jordie in after a great pass from Mr T.
Bumper crowd....
BB a late withdrawal apparently. Boychild gets his chance.
-
His name is Jordie, not Jodie you knob jockey.
-
Laumape! Fuck yeah.
-
Poor boychild off. Looks like TTT and TJP at 10!
-
This ref is shit. Wtf was wrong with that? Ardie drove through fair and square.
Mmmmm cheerleaders.

Ref is fine. We are just giving away penalty after penalty for dumb shit. It's a shame because the Bulls cant tackle.
No, that was a ridiculous penalty.
Nice try to Goose.
Boychild back on btw.

Wasn't against Ardie I think.
-
Nice try!
I'm going to bed. 11 point buffer. Hopefully enough.

Hurricanes defence of the maul has been absolutely unbelievable. So good to watch. Stupid Bulls don't learn and always choose the linneout option only to get mullered again. Idiots
Canes have a good sized forward pack on the park today to be disruptive. Big locks and backrow with Fifita, Shields and of course the biggest openside in rugby since Burger, Ardie Savea.

Oh, no, please, not another case of concussion!
Hurricanes first five Beauden Barrett's late withdrawal due to headaches, saw Otere Black wear the No.10 jersey and the latter added three conversions and a penalty to keep the Bulls at bay. Boyd said the source of Barrett's head aches was still unclear, but he had been withdrawn from the match by the medical team as a precaution. Barrett left the field at halftime during last weekend's win over the Cheetahs in Wellington, passed a concussion test and had shown no symptoms until the team landed in Johannesburg. Although the team doctor was unsure whether his headaches were due to travel, altitude or humidity, it was decided the day before the match to withdraw him from the Bulls match the day before kick off as a precaution. Barrett had exercised earlier in the week without any issues, Boyd said.

Surely the Bulls would have just spun it wide to use the 5 man overlap the maul created by sucking in defenders.

They're not very bright are they?

Nice to see they held on. Fingers crossed on BB and Ardie.
