<p>Isn't this pathetic. 18 minutes late and all the articles about it. Boyd must be a complete fool to make such a big issue of it. Just have a quiet word and move on. Not treat them like naughty children. No wonder the team was flat against the Sharks. The players must have lost their respect for him and the team management</p>

<p>The Hurricanes are calling their decision to stand five players down from selection as a "one-out-of-10 offence with a 10-out-of-10 punishment."</p>
<p>Star players Julian and Ardie Savea, Cory Jane and Victor Vito, along with reserve prop Chris Eves, will watch Saturday's Super Rugby clash with the Reds from the Westpac Stadium stands after breaking a team-imposed curfew last week.</p>
<p>The five players are understood to have missed a prescribed curfew by 18 minutes, in Durban last Tuesday. Neither Hurricanes coach Chris Boyd nor captain Dane Coles would say what the curfew was, although Boyd noted that the quintet were back at the team hotel before midnight.</p>

<p>Players set up curfew and rule - check</p>
<p>Some players break curfew - check</p>
<p>Players punished for breaking curfew - check </p>
<p>Rule imposed as per curfew - check</p>
<p>Players not selected - check</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Yet this is all Boyd's fault????</p> -
<p>sounds like pseudo-discipline to me....</p>

<p>I heard some folk on talkback mentioning that perhaps they should fine the players rather than potentially screw things for the team and the fans by dropping them ?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>That's some serious talent to take out of a team in one go.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Jane needs to grow up though, off the top of my head I'm certain he'd be the oldest Cane yet he sure as shit doesn't act like it.</p> -

<p>I think he is the oldest by some way. I have to agree he is the most immature guy in the team. Im all for having a bit of fun but he tends to have fun at the wrong times.</p> -

<p>When I heard about 5 players being in the shit my first thought was Jane would be one of them, if he can't shift overseas because of his kids health you'd think he'd show a bit more intelligence when it came to keeping his spot in the team. </p> -
It's not like he doesn't have form.<br><br>

Will be pissed off if they don't win this. Christ the Reds are shit.

<p>how the hell did the ref see that somehow he managed to be in front of where the ball went out for the quick throw there??</p>

Scrappy tar by boh teams
-
<p>nice try by Goosen</p>
-
Horn inducing

Nicely done by Goosen on debut
-
<p>the 2 fellas wearing 7 & 11 have started well!</p>

Then a little gem from BB NICE try and two nights running staf has given tab money away!
-
Pretty ordinary defence from the Japanese superstar there.
-
Damn Beuden. His clearing kicks from in goal are a serious weakness.
-
<p>nice chase and t/o by Shields...forget what happened next</p>
-
Aahhhuumm that was blatently taken out without the ball, by an offside player. But nevermind, play the supposed knock on...
-
Canes breakdown cleanout very poor, missing Ardie in that regard for sure.
-
What an appalling option.
