Hurricanes v Chiefs

@yeetyaah Preferably with a hat-trick from Lowe.
The Chiefs must be kicking themselves don't have T Falcon as an option as well. Come to think about it you could almost say the same about the Hurricanes but their inability to select appropriately is so ingrained in them that it will take a miracle for that to change.

look at all you Hurricanes fans falling over each other to declare yourselves underdogs and the Chiefs, a team that hasn't won a game since before COVID fucked everybody's lives up, as morals.
I almost miss the unbridled overrating of your squad. almost.

@mariner4life The Chiefs have the better coach and squad; just lacking the confidence.

@mariner4life This week's Hurricanes team is very NPC though.

@stargazer No wonder Falcon was not able to secure a super contract in NZ if he was rated inferior to JGB when said player was snapped up by the Hurricanes. The other Super Rugby selection panels are obviously just as stupid as the Hurricanes ones have been over the years if they believe in that fallacy.

We just see the writing on the wall unlike the Canes coaches with their poor selections.

@higgins Like I said mate I’ve lost the faith for the first time ever I hope we go 8-0. Doubt it’ll get us a clean out of coaches though.
Especially as the coaches just got their contracts extended.
