@Tim As long as it is not in Canberra.

@Derpus Brumbies had won the previous 3 games between these teams.

They were all played in Canberra weren't they? Most likely zero degree weather.

[Stargazer]

It's a pity that Godfrey didn't get more than 2 minutes. And had to replace Rayasi.

I didn’t even see him get on.

Hopefully next week against the Drua?

I would take Aumua over Coles for the WC. He really matured through the NPC last year and has definitely continued that form for the Canes this year.

And Roigard too. Unlikely with Foster but good news for Razor

[Stargazer]

Morgan scored one good try and they're talking him up in the match commentary.

Yeah Roigard is all class aye. His form has hardly wavered all year. Canes player of the year so far.

[Bovidae]

You'd take TJP on one leg over Booth.

Lol I knew that would happen aye. Morgan was average tonight despite that good try at the end.

I hear he isn’t far away. Getting the likes of TJ back (albeit he’ll be a bench player) and Ruben Love back could take this Canes team up a notch.

[Canes4life]

That try by Nick Frost tonight was the highlight. Absolute giraffe in open space but he surely showed some toe to go all the way.

The Hurricanes have played all five Aussie teams and won all of them. They started the season pretty strong, seem to have stalled somewhat. Still in a really good position.

Rayasi should have been subbed at half time

Playing heads up Rugby every week. The top 2 inches are definitely there with this kid.

Intercepting, sniping, having a dab from the base in the red zone. A lot to like.

I don't really follow subbing him, with 20 to go no matter what.
If he is playing well and not tired, why do we have to sub him? It's such a huge drop off to Booth.

I don't think I have ever seen so much just let go in a game, I enjoyed the lack of penalties, I bet that game had a lot more time with ball in play than average.

Mentioned after the game against the Chiefs as well. Pre-determined subbing to inferior players
If this is a sign of the coaches acumen I am concerned for the ABs.

Watching replay this morning.

Where did Doleman learn to ref?

5 minutes of ignoring Brumbies offences ...

... offside inside the 10 not retiring
... multiple side entries and illegal hands in ruck
... no arms tackle
... throwing the ball away preventing quick throw

Was getting quite GOM !
