In case anyone is wondering the score at halftime is Hurricanes 10 - 03 Force</p></blockquote>

Not as bright as big grounds... but still able to see sharp shadows of the players on the ground. ...

<p>Force are one of those annoying teams, kinda like that addage of arguing with an idiot and he'll bring you down to his level and beat you with experience....</p>

[Mattasaurus]

TJs pass seems laboured at crucial moments and a few getting loopy when going wider from the breakdown

[KiwiMurph]

<p>Battle of the 7s has been good - both have been really impressive in their own ways.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Julian Savea continues to look like an All Black on reputation alone.</p>

I reckon this is s good game to watch. Finishing has been a bit off, but force have done well with turnovers.<br><br>
Hurricanes score and take it out above a converted try.<br><br>
15-6 with 22 to go.

<p>His passing can best be described as wildly inconsistent.</p>

[gt12]

Moving away now.<br><br>
Perenara scores and my picking is fucked.<br><br>
22-6 with 15 left.

[KiwiMurph]

<p>Excellent try Canes. They bought the Halaholo dummy.</p>

[Mattasaurus]

Lovely try.

[gt12]

Bloody hell.<br><br>
29-6 with 10 left.

[No Quarter]

Laumape too strong.

[gt12]

Good reward - he's played very well.<br><br>
34-6 with the kick to come and still 8 minutes left..

[No Quarter]

Scrappy first half, which many games that involve the Force are, but we've got the job done and will happily take the 5 points with a very comfortable win in the end.

[KiwiMurph]

<p>Geez Ardie is playing well. Really starting to dominate at this level now.</p>

[Glath]

<p>I hope Halaholo starts next match. It's good to see him replicating his Southland form at super level.</p>

[Mattasaurus]

Ran away with it in the end...1st 40 was a battle and some poor skills but that last 20min was very nice

<p>What dickhead decided to have the refs also wearing matching yellow shirts?</p>
<p>And is it a coincidence the refs are sponsored by specsavers - bloody hell they sure need specs if they couldn't see Coles bang that down for a try</p>

<p> There's a coke snorting pony tail wearing marketing "executive" high fiving himself right now Crash. They really don't need the extra attention  ;)</p>

[gt12]

A smacking. <br><br>
Ardie finishes with a try and must be MOTM.

<p>True, but we learnt last year that the BEST All Blacks taper there effort and form till the business end of the season...didn't we? (he says with an inflection of hope)</p>

Well Ardie went well, but also thought Fifita showed he will be ok at this level over next few years. Lumape may also turn out as a good buy for Canes if they let him develop in coming seasons.
