@chris really if you had a smarter team playing you would have lost. The Crusader mistique of old is lost.
Maybe but winning ugly still keeps you on top.
A long way to the Finals yet.I really can't see the crusaders getting the same "luck" under non kiwi refs...

Well if it’s Murphy no NZ team will win he is worse than pick his nuts.

Come on don’t be like that the Landers will make the play offs.

Why didn't they at least go to golden point?
Because Ardie is a retard
Who was it that was recently extolling Ardie as a crucial AB because of his leadership...?

@taniwharugby said in Crusaders v Hurricanes:
@gt12 looked like that call came from the coaches
The retards who appointed another retard as their captain?

@nepia said in Crusaders v Hurricanes:

I think that was a reasonable call. You take the 3, you have a 90% chance of getting it but then it is a 50/50. The Hurricanes had a decent chance of scoring from that lineout at the end. I don't think it was 50/50 but at least 35%. It wasn't a shocking call.

Well I was yelling to do exactly what they did, what was point of going for a draw, play extra time and still maybe not win, and they got another game on Tuesday night??
Sorry fellas , but to be calling people retards kind of shows something about you, especially when it was right call. If Jordie had taken kick attempt and missed you would be moaning for not goin to corner. -

Sorry fellas , but to be calling people retards kind of shows something about you, especially when it was right call. If Jordie had taken kick attempt and missed you would be moaning for not goin to corner.The weakness in this analysis is that it was exactly one chance to score (time is up) versus 90% draw then a 50/50 with time to score or lose.
How many lineout drive tries have the Canes scored this year? I honestly don’t know but I’ll bet it is zero (or basically that).
Edit: @fooba seems to suggest it is zero

@machpants Very likely as my guys had about four or five guys come down with covid in the last couple of days and one other team had to pull out of their game today with about a dozen covid cases so it might be something sweeping through the Wellington rugby community at the moment.

Would like to see more of Barrett at 12.
Definitely. Just need to take care we don't turn a world-class 15 into an average 12 - even if he is a better 12 than Havili.

https://www.forum.thesilverfern.com/topic/4719/hurricanes-2022/704I don't think it'd be anywhere near 50/50 against the Crusaders in golden point. They'd have time to regroup and more than likely seal the win. The Canes best chance to win in golden point would be a penalty kick and the chances of the ref blowing a kickable penalty against the Crusaders is pretty much nil.

Real brain explosion stuff by Canes kicking for the corner, when we could've slotted a very handy 3pointer to go into golden point time.
Howden went really well at 6, with prinsep not starting the loose forward trio were far better... was impressed with our cleaning at the breakdown throughout the match, reckon it was a big factor that kept us in the game.
That was one of the very few times I've seen J.Savea have a good work rate through a whole game, if he could play like that every match he'd be an incumbent on the wing for the Canes, but unfortunately he tends to be too lazy on most occasions.
