Hurricanes vs Blues

Wow! What a start to the season for the Hurricanes!

African Monkey

Haha damn gutted we didn't get the BP at the end but great fight shown at the same time. They can be proud of their efforts.

Well done to the Canes too, impressed with their physicality compared to previous years, they'll be there or there abouts come the end of the season.

Given the score line, that's hardly a compelling victory where near everything went your way.

@antipodean lol piss off. The Canes were bloody good at times both defensively and offensively. Take the loss on the chin champ and move on.

It's not hard for most people to be dispassionate and look at what happened to your opposition and ruminate on the impact to a close score line.

Or perhaps it is.

@antipodean John Kirwan is that you? Take your blue tinted glasses off. Who’s to say the Canes wouldn’t have lifted a gear had the Blues not had injuries.

Good point, they're a team that does the bare minimum to achieve victory, saving themselves for the final they'll inevitably host.

@antipodean what are you on about? The Blues got done tonight, get over it.

I went Lakai, Love and Roigard. Special mentions to Moorby, Proctor and Higgins who did well stepping in to Jordie's shoes.

@mariner4life haha what a sour puss.

African Monkey

Haha sour puss, haven't heard that one in a while.

KiwiMurph

Only saw bits and pieces but Canes looked clearly the better side

Blues attack is all bash but little else.

Christie is a nightmare to watch - he has a really poor feel for the game - a lot of energy but a lot of it is misdirected.

Bones

@KiwiMurph yeah going to be really interesting how TJ pulls up this year. An experienced back up to two young guns is what's required - hopefully Perenara out performs Christie.

I love it. Sour?

I couldn't give a shit which team won. I hate both teams equally.
