Hurricanes v Brumbies

[Duluth]

@Crucial

I probably should've read the injury list that I posted

The general points stands though. Moorby's underwhelming form makes it tempting to move JB.. I hope it doesn't happen because that has an impact on the ABs

[Dan54]

@Canes4life Agree mate, but I wouldn't be against Godfrey starting at 15 regardless.

I can't really remember IWL and Bird being on at same time

They were and formed a VG combination. As did Naholo and Rayasi

Yes it was against MP but the team played well. Maybe the best performance yet. I hoped after this the coaches would see the light regarding Blackwell. Hes fine at NPC level or against the weaker teams. But not against a top side

Proctor was surperb at 2nd 5 in this game

This was the team that I felt could win it. With the ABs back. But we haven't had luck with injuries (Cameron esp). And the selection in a few positions don't help

Hurricanes named to take on Moana Pasifika on Saturday

Agree. Hopefully though Love returns soon. Godfrey looks one for the future but maybe not ready yet as a starter

Ok mate, probably why I didn't remember, MP are hardly a team you need your top forward pack.

I think that was a game that as you said reminded us how good Proctor is, but perhaps doesn't get remembered for same reason.
I actually pretty neutral on who should be locking partnership, but think maybe scrum I think is one reason as both do better on same side? I do admit to not being anti Blackwell who I think is competent at super level, and to be honest I really think that of all 3 of them, none are world beaters.

Julian's little girl is super cute

[Stargazer]

Strange to see the Canes play in their away jerseys. Can't say the yellow jersey clashes with the Brumbies jersey.

Edit: it does clash with the ref's outfit. Is that the reason?

[Machpants]

Cam has a great boot

[antipodean]

How was that advantage to the Brumbies and not a penalty to the Canes? Jules was taken out in the air!

[Machpants]

Jesus shows how disorganised the canes are

[Duluth]

Great pace. Exposed the forwards out wide

[antipodean]

You can blame Rayasi throwing the ball away for that.

[taniwharugby]

Well taken try hynthe brumbies, scramble d not great from canes

[Tim]

Good try, weak defence.

[taniwharugby]

Nice patience shown there by canes

[KiwiMurph]

Nicely done. Brumbies make you work for your points.

[taniwharugby]

Seemed to be alot of brumbies scragging the canes around the neck/head too

[Tim]

Offside from the kick fumble?

[antipodean]

Well done Aumua!

[taniwharugby]

@antipodean aside from the throw, he did well there
