Hurricanes vs Crusaders

[Duluth]

Canes defence was a mess on that blindside

[Canes4life]

Hurricanes haven’t come out of the sheds tonight. Naholo looks gassed.

We need to get the bloody ball back.

[sparky]

Canes defence awful, but credit to the Crusaders for seeing where the gaps are. Painful watching.

could be forgiven for not even realising Ohmooa of the canes was even playing

[Landers92]

@taniwharugby I watched Levi Aumua join literally from the side. Genuinely smack back on the side in the middle. Ref Can’t make all the calls but Jesus Christ

So many side entries by Crusader players into the rucks being missed by the ref… I have no idea how he isn’t seeing those

he's letting a lot go at the rucks.... particularly for the attacking team

Canes could work this out and adjust.

Could get ugly otherwise.

A different attitude needed in the second half. Canes will definitely come out better.

[KiwiInLondon]

Canes remind me of a comment someone made about Warren Gatland’s sides. Can only compete when they’re bigger than the opposition

[taniwharugby]

@antipodean you mean by attacking more

I don't know why, he's doing fuck all of benefit.

I think it will if the Crusaders score first in the 2nd half.

[Canes4life]

Canes just aren’t urgent enough. Far too much ball watching by the likes of Lomax. He’s been fucking lazy in this game..

Mind is already on the yen perhaps…

Saders are smacking the Canes around and winning the contacts

[Steven Harris]

Impressed with Fihaki despite the last kick hes got some skill ,footwork and pace
Based on this years form i could understand an ABs call up
Last year not so much
Scooter outstanding in the first 40
A few reputations in the Canes going south

[frugby]

It's games like these that gets guys selected for the All Blacks. You look at the Hurricanes, and obviously guys can have quiet games, but Numia, Kirifi and Love have been comfortably outplayed by their opposites - who are all established ABs. Lio-Willie is not everyone's cup of tea, but he consistenly stands out in these games, and I think is well on course for the ABs.

In place of who? I’m sure it’s between Tangitau and Fihaki(rightly or wrongly). I know who the majority would rather
