Sharks vs Hurricanes

[Jailbreak7]

Why to the Canes do this to us - go to sleep, wake up score a try then go back to sleep again so bloody frustrating

[Jailbreak7]

FFS Beaudy that dribble kick was cr@p

[Stargazer]

Great D from the Canes against the Sharks driving maul.

[Jailbreak7]

Well finally. A TO won. And a FK

[Stargazer]

In touch?

[Stargazer]

Yeah, clearly. No try to the Sharks. Dangerously close, though.

[Stargazer]

Proctor off injured. Rib or shoulder?

[Stargazer]

Great. One of Evans' first actions is getting a penalty for the Canes.

[Stargazer]

Good try in the corner from Goosen, but piss poor defence from the Sharks.

[sparky]

Wes Goosen 28-17. Canes the better team, but have made heavy-going of this.

[Jailbreak7]

@Stargazer He was patting the shoulder area, but holding his wrist awkwardly too. Looked like he landed on the point of his shoulder in that last tackle

[Jailbreak7]

Aaagh BB don't get injured

[Jailbreak7]

Man this is a joke. Red Card? This is making me see red alright
What about the Shaorks player pulling Canes player jersey not allowing him to get to the ball carrier?

[sparky]

@Jailbreak7 Nah, lazy from Fifita. Shoulder to the throat. Red is appropriate.

[Jailbreak7]

@sparky Don't agree. Sharks player ducked into that tackle

[Stargazer]

FT: Sharks 17 - 30 Hurricanes

A win's a win. It wasn't pretty and the Canes need bonus points if they still want to finish top of the table. But 4 points are in the bag.

[sparky]

All over. Hurricanes 30 Sharks 17. Job done.

Bit of pushing and shoving after the final whistle. Calm now, boys and have a beer with each other.

[Stargazer]

That red card will likely result in a suspension. Without checking the regulations, my expectation is about 3 weeks if the judiciary agrees with the card.

[Rebound]

@Jailbreak7 What grates about this decision is the fact that the ref let plenty neck grabs by the Sharks go throughout the game only penalised one high tackle

[Jailbreak7]

@Rebound Yep and immediately preceeding the Fifita tackle, a Sharks player took out a Canes player off the ball, preventing him from tackling the ball carrier
