<p>Awful work by the Canes tonight - <strong>they obviously spent too much time focusing on their weekly tv show rather than training.</strong></p>
<p> </p>
<p>But, on the Brumbies side, M4Ls boyfriend Fardy is having a game to live up to the hype.</p>

<p>Don't the Brumbies also have their own weekly TV show as well? </p> -

<p>Heard that J.Savea come back from his wedding 10-12 kgs (can't remember exactly) overweight. Obviously isn't too worried about his rugby career at the moment. </p>

<p>He's the new Piri.</p>

<p>I guess when the coaches select you through a winning WC campaign when you're fat there isn't much incentive to get trim?</p> -

<p>Sounds like he could do with a few weeks away from SupeRugby to join his brother at the 7s camps. I'm sure Titch would get him back into shape in no time.</p> -
Just came back from the game. If this outfit put 70 odd past the Crusaders, how bad are they?<br><br>The Canes looked hopelessly outclassed in the forwards. Shit passing and execution from the backs. Just terrible to watch.<br><br>Even worse they've ensured that fuckloads of these filthy public servants will attend next week's game. piston wristed gibbons.<br><br>At least that will make it better when the Tahs destroy them.

Canes were as bad as the scoreline suggests. Their forwards got a towelling. Their tight five looks a real weakness, especially in the depth department. Wasnt impressed with Perenara or Barrett. They didnt have a platform but they werent very good, Perenara with his usual errors when pressured and Barrett just sort of floated along as he tends to. Laumape wasnt too bad all things considering and Fifita did ok in his debut off the bench. <br><br>
Brumbies on the other hand were very good - pleased to see much more ball movement. Theyll be backing themselves to tip over the Tahs minus Foley next week. -
<p>Canes were shocking, no doubt about it.</p>
<p>Defence was optional, and they couldn't get their attack going, let alone build phases, or even hold on to the ball without losing it in contact or spilling it</p>
<p>They look a long long way from last season's finalists. Disappointing. </p>
<p>Whoever said earlier the whole team look unfit/heavy was on the money. They need to shed the kilos and the error-rate and start looking like rugby players.</p> -
<p>People who pop up from time to time and suggest Barrett should be the starting All Black 10 should be forced to watch games like this over and over.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Not saying this was all his fault but your ten needs to spark and provide more direction and leadership than that.</p> -

<p>Yeah Lealiifano is a legendary 10 huh....completely outshone Barrett..or not.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I'd say the bigger difference was one position in.</p>
