BOP v Wellington

[Tim]

Two low skill teams.

[Tim]

Awful game. Pity both teams can't be relegated.

[Donsteppa]

That goal-line dropout rule remains the dumbest thing introduced to rugby. Some idiot rule maker who wanted to work for the NRL

You mean a compulsory invocation of the mercy rule!

EDIT As I write this The Steamers shove Wellington back over their line for another try 14 -05 with the successful conversion

[Tim]

LOL @ the Hurricanes signing Bird. What an absolute dud.

[Higgins]

@tim Yet another sign of the ineptness of the WRFU/Hurricanes talent indentification system.

[Donsteppa]

The irony is that will probably give a us better outcome than a goal-line dropout....

[Tim]

Ball is clearly out.

Yep, sure enough we now get a lineout inside the 22.

[Steven Harris]

@higgins 2 weeks in a row Fido & Numia have been owned at scrum time

[Stargazer]

Lucky Collins. How stupid was that slap back, straight into the hands of the BOP player?

[Donsteppa]

Poor fitness or work ethic just before half time there. That last Wellington try scorer should not have got around under the posts.

[Higgins]

@steven-harris My memory recalls them being severely embarrassed by The Steamers in the past as well. Still @Canes4life is bound to come along and defend them (promising youngsters is what he invariable cites as why they should be persisted with at the Hurricanes) as he always does when I have pointed out their scrum deficiencies over the last three or four years.

[Donsteppa]

Sangster is a good find.

[mikey07]

What an absolute rabble this Wellington team is and here we go again bring Morgan on and put Love at fullback because that’s worked the last 3 games…

[Donsteppa]

Daryl Gibson = Kevin Schuler.

[Donsteppa]

Every time I post something bitter we do better. Need to maximise this reverse jinx..

[Steven Harris]

@higgins Canes forwards coach Chris Gibbs facinated with ball running forwards like Alex Fido & Xavier Numia problem is both of them cant scrum .

[Donsteppa]

Perhaps Judd could have a flashback and accidentally feed our side of the scrum...

[canefan]

Looks like we are heading down next season
