Crusaders v Hurricanes
-
@Machpants terrible outcome for Laumape who has looked increasingly impressive during SRA
-
@canefan he has been in some career best form alright, although his chat after the game last week was a bit odd, bit of a chip.
Never like to see someone miss out through injury.

Maybe he is using the perceived slights as fuel? He wouldn't be the first athlete to do that

@canefan difference between using a slight as fuel and speaking about it the way he did, IMO didnt come over too well.

Yeah, maybe he should stick to letting his onfield play do the talking

Missed that. Do you have a link?

No. Lots of articles refer to it though
'Let those people keep disrespecting my name, because I'm going to turn up every week'
Hurricanes centre Ngani Laumape fired off at his critics following his game-breaking performance against the Blues in Super Rugby Aotearoa.
I didn't think much of it at the time. May not have used the correct words. He has his critics and he answered them. Disrespect might be a bit strong

yep, thats what I was alluding to, came across to me as having a bit of chip, much better ways of saying what he did.

Oh and hope Laumape isn't too bad.
Probably a broken wrist
Called when they showed the footage, sadly. Broken arm was the way he was holding it
So looking through the Hurricanes squad list on their website it looks like Danny Toala is the only one they have left that can play second five. Cue Billy Proctor (or, perhaps, some other relatively obsure Wellingtonian) to be named in that position!

@Tim Possibly but I try to erase the BoP performances from my memory! I seem to recall that he was mainly a fullyback for the Steamers with maybe a game or two on the wing? He is listed as a fullback on the Hurricanes website if that is any indication

@shark A possibility, but the who do you shoe into fullback? Tiatia looked only a stopgap measure earlier in the season and not one that would inspire too much confidence into supporters.
Its too late to move JB in now. Not because I don't think he can do it but because he's doing so well at 15 and we don't have a viable alternative

He gets a ton of shit on social media, so just giving it beck, and politely - if a bit incoherent
