Hurricanes vs Blues

@KiwiMurph I'm sure it would be hard for Riccitelli, Sotutu and Plummer to play with the same vigour with the knowledge they are heading offshore. Beehre gave away a few penalties but was busy.
Trouble is, I don't know who the Blues leave out? Definitely think I'd inject an actual fullback at 15 be it Forbes, or Sullivan (when he is fit again). Taele could be worth a go in the midfield too.

Can someone explain to me why the Canes kicked to touch instead of a scrum at about 78:30 when #19 was pinged for offside, please?

I was more peeved that they didn’t drive from the lineout. It worked the lineout before and then they moved away from it by trying to be too cute and as a result they knocked it on. That’s the difference between a win and a loss.

Stupidity, you saw the front rowers signalling scrum

I feel for Godfrey, we win that and he’s who everyone would be talking about atm. Fantastic performance and can’t wait to see what he does when we get a few boys back.
@Canes4life He is certainly looking like one of our best 10s.

At 56 mins (watching the replay on Stan) and Plummer belts an easy kick into touch on the full I reflect on those lamenting his exit to Europe. It's sad we lose him because he's an adequate first five-eighth at Super level.
That is all.

Yeah can't say I can't get behind discounting players because they're not in their best form and made a mistake. Hopefully Jordan doesn't go down the same path.

He's no Shaun Stevenson, but provides some good highlights none the less.

Plummer? Highlights?

Gardner doing his level best to make this about him.

Congratulations to the Blues.

Angus Gardner had a poor game. He intervened far too much.

Harry Godfrey looks a keeper.

Rugby is in an awful state in my opinion.
A comment under the YouTube video of the game highlights read:
"5 minutes of highlights and 4 of them were Angus Gardener sending people off the field and putting his arm up for penalties".

This seems like a broadbrush comment based on one game.
Both other Super games were wonderful to watch.

Yeah my canes mates were all moaning about the amount of penalties, completely disregarding they were all fair infringements and at one stage Gardner played through 4 penalty advantages until he finally blew.
