He’s pretty funny in this speech
Best speech. Also the whole thing was in a language I could understand. No thanking sky fairies for losing either.

This Canes team is Hammett era shit.

Geez the despised players were best on show tonite. Otere was mom for me with second half display but Campbell Prinsep and Blackwell were all outstanding for Canes. Player form really levelling out.
Blackwell? He gave away one try, and gifted the blues penalty advantage on the way to their 3rd. What game were you watching?

@gt12 I was taking a piss, but did he say something about the girls in the kitchen?
Thanked the guys in the kitchen for the feed, after starting with ‘It was a game of two halves, full credit to the boys’
And finished with ‘time for some Kentucky since its Bye week’

@kirwan don't worry, Ruru or Christie will start next week, no need for a combo to build at 9-10

@kirwan said in Blues v Hurricanes:
We looked a lot better when Ruru came in. Nock was slow to the ruck and kicked poorly.
Much more urgency when he came on. Started running from the base too.
Strange game when Ruru injects some pace and accuracy to the play.
-
Half the problem for the Canes is that there is no media here in Wellington holding these coaches to account. Piss poor tactics, poor selections and 4 losses.
It’s the worst it’s ever been at the Hurricanes but the coaches somehow get a contract extension. Fucking La La land.

Ruru has played plenty, it’s Nock and Christie fighting for the bench.

@kirwan Point is, none of them have started consecutive weeks, how are they supposed to build a combo with the 8/10 when you chop and change especially when Rurus game is quite different to the other 2.
Edit - I already mentioned in this thread Ruru backed up round 2/3, IMO should have started even after his poor performance in round 3.

Training?

@kirwan you know training is vastly different to a live match.

Geez I struggling to see anything in that game that you would use to promote the game.
What the hell is happening to the skills in our game here in NZ?A couple of Blues trys were great. Reikos outside break and sweet pass was as good as you’ll see. Perofeta’s step was also great.
And the Blues defence was top drawer.

Perhaps, but it’s a step in building combinations. Can only judge the players on how they go when they get on the field.
Seems pretty clearly Ruru, Christie and Nock in that order. Nocks been around too long to kick like that.
