How good is it having a halfback who passes from the carpet..
Nice try to Ah So

Not impressed with TripleT so far - gets to the ruck, and looks both ways before picking up the ball - seems to take far too long

Differing opinions on 3T within a couple of posts of each other.

Personally was not unimpressed. Looked the part.

AFL style!

I actually think Triple T has potential. His pass looks pretty damn good.

Good old game of two halves

Game of two quarters and a half

Beaudy seems to be thriving on more game time. Loves the physical stuff.

I think it might be a good idea to give him a week off some time soon with an eye on some games coming up in late June and July.

Great crowd. Well done Napier.

And what about JTA into the AB squad this year ? His scrummaging has been impressive and he is very mobile for such a big man.

Remind me which side he plays again?

We need a replacement for Charlie F more than Crockett. Ofa still looks to be a project.

Tighthead

From the Hurricanes on twitter: there was a crowd of 13,118 at McLean Park.

Oh, looked a sellout, but that is quite smallish. But still good for a metro area of about 100k.
What is the capacity of McLean Park these days?

[Rapido]

Reckon brumbies halfback would have scored of he had kept going for the ball rather than trying to shield Ardie. The ball did a nice little half metre final bounce to his side , but he's angled a metre away in the wrong direction.

The maximum capacity is about 19.7k. Seating in the stands: 9704 and capacity for approximately 10,000 standing on the embankment.

Don't think that was the number of tickets available though, esp on the embankment the number may have been considerably lower. The stands indeed looked full. I've heard a number of 14,000 tickets, but not sure whether that's correct.

I liked the look of that Jonathon Ruru fella I saw for Otago in the Mitre 10 ....
