Rebels v Hurricanes

[No Quarter]

What a disgrace. They should go to golden oldies scrums to avoid the pitch tearing up like that, or just call it off. You can't play professional footy in a sand pit.

[Stargazer]

<p>Haha, this tweet from James Marshall: "Should have trained at the beach this week!"</p>

[No Quarter]

Also what is with Hoffman awarding a try when he obviously didn't see a grounding...

[Higgins]

<p>Beauden Barrett misses a realtively simple penalty as it comes off the upright but from the ensuing play Victor Vito score a nice try. Hurricanes 07 - 05 Rebels after 18 minutes</p>

[No Quarter]

Brilliant from Barrett.

[Stargazer]

<p>Awesome try Vito; great play by Barrett!</p>

[Higgins]

<p>But that lead is held only momentarily after Vaea Fifita gets done for holding on in a messy pileup and the kick sails over Hurricanes 07 - 08 Rebels</p>

[No Quarter]

Outragous try, brilliant from Woodward.

<p>The media may talk up the Sopanga - Cruden battle for the starting AB 1st Five, but BB is awesome in any sort of space with his pace and vision.</p>

[Higgins]

<p>Cory Jane might have old legs but that doesn't stop him scoring in the right hand corner after Jason Woodward skillfully takes his chip kick on the full and offloads to Jane to score nicely.  Hurricanes 12 - 08 Rebels 21 minutes played</p>

[Rancid Schnitzel]

Very nice.

[gt12]

Hurricanes exit plays better improve. It's killing them

[dingo]

<p>Crucial turnover there for the 'canes.On replay its A Savea, steal and then offload to Procter. Nice.</p>

[No Quarter]

Ardie with a nice steal, we need more of that, ref doesn't know the rule about releasing the tackled player so just go all out for the turnovers.

[Higgins]

<p>A stunning piece of play happens when a Rebels player standing on the Hurricanes side of a defensive maul near the Canes tryline flings a defending player out of the maul without facing any sanction. Fortunately the Canes get a turnover and are able to relieve pressure.</p>

[dingo]

<p>That bit of play, with A Savea offloading to Dane Coles who offloads to J Savea in all sorts of traffic reminds one why Dane Coles plays for the ABs. He has skills for a big guy.</p>

[antipodean]

<p>How the fuck is that a penalty?</p>

[No Quarter]

Love the aggressive defense leading up to the intercept.

[Higgins]

<p>Try to Barrett after a timely interception running it in from about fifty yards. Hurricanes 19 - 08 Rebels 29 minutes gone</p>

[dingo]

<p>BB! Vision and pace. Too easy.</p>
