Rebels v Hurricanes

[hydro11]

Feel sorry for Meaks there. He is trying to stop the player from scoring a try. Players can reach out now so if he releases Aumua, Aumua just goes and scores.

That’s weak by JTA. Giving them territory and ball is a bad idea. That’s what kept them in it in the 1st half. Without Maki, the Canes should win this going away.

You can tell I once dated a girl called Maki.

Maki-chan!

Actually, Macha-chan between friends.

Gal hostess.

The memories.

That’s a bit weak there by Gardner. Not sure that needs calling - it happens constantly.

[Stargazer]

Hat-trick Lam. But it was thanks to Booth's quick tap.

[gt12]

Multiple penalties at that breakdown. Over the top with a hit to the head as well. Wonder if that’ll be picked up?

[hydro11]

So the Aussie teams still have a fair way to go, I guess?

[KiwiMurph]

Crowd 16,135.

Thats the biggest crowd at a Rebels game in a long time.

[No Quarter]

Rebels ran out of gas at around the 60 minute mark, and without Mafi don't offer much at the back end of the game.

@no-quarter

I forgot how good the Canes defense has become. I expected this game to be 50-38. Rebel’s haven’t kept up their end.

[Stargazer]

@kiwimurph Lots of yellow jerseys.

[No Quarter]

Jules would have scored that every time a few years back.

[Stargazer]

Has Goosen come on the field? Haven't noticed him yet.

[gt12]

@no-quarter

That was a bit weak. Just hold it if you aren’t going to get there.

Time for that contract to be bought out

[Bones]

@no-quarter yeah feel sorry for him eh!

@Stargazer Goosen came on a while ago.

[Stargazer]

Lam 4x. Got the ball from Goosen, so yep.

[No Quarter]

Lam with 4, Canes with 50, that will do thank you.

[Dice]

I was so close to picking up Lam for my fantasy team this week, but I picked Jordie up instead. Crap.

Well, I have Julian Savea.

Went down the pub to watch. Left at 60 minute mark.

Should really have left after that bullshit bounce for the Canes' second try after 20 minutes. You just know when that shit happens that Barrett is going to win the game easily.

Rebels could have done with more accuracy at the breakdown, turning over ball at crucial times. And a halves combination that works. Debreczini is shit. Genia was hesitant because he wasn't getting options, then he was making some bad decisions himself.

Canes the luxury of presenting multiple options every rich so TJP could just Chuck it and someone would be there.

Some good moments from the home side but there's a reason the bookies were giving them $4 the win.
