Blues v Hurricanes

[Chris B.]

@KiwiMurph I really thought they were going to score with a maul!

@Machpants said in Blues v Hurricanes:

@Kirwan it was beautiful, right in front of the ref and he didn't notice. Like all the not straight line is (both sides) being missed, that pass from the grind being forward, etc. Referring standard is definitely on the drop, I guess all the directives when they are looking out for other things, they miss the basics?

Patrick’s pass? That wasn’t forward, agree with the rest.

[KiwiMurph]

@Chris-B haha when Parsons is involved I expect the error.

@Machpants the 2nd try should have been pulled up for the peel off the maul where the guy got in front of the ball carrier and ran into Nock. Basic stuff.

[Machpants]

@Kirwan nah 14s, forward out the hand, looked ok because receiver was running into it, but wasn't backwards

@RoninWC said in Blues v Hurricanes:

Jezzz, is Ardie our best 7 and 8 right now?

Don’t know, but he’s certainly the tallest 7 or 8.

He’s in a real purple patch and has become the Mr Reliable this Canes team needs.

On Karl T, I think his form has gone backwards. Not unusual for a guy that came from relative obscurity and had a big season last year. All the same, he’s been disappointing so far this season.

[Kirwan]

Oh boy

[SammyC]

Fuck Nanai is a dufus

[kiwiinmelb]

Wtf

[Kirwan]

Dalton and Akira cleaning up that mess

[Machpants]

How much advantage?

[Kirwan]

Parsons looks hurt too

[Duluth]

Scrafton moves bodies better than our other locks not called Patrick

[Kirwan]

Good commitment from Black on that loose ball

[MajorRage]

Rieko Ioane seems to think he's Julian Savea these days.

Rieko, you go around players, not through.

[Kirwan]

How many penalties in this area?

[SammyC]

Hurricanes scrum will crack soon surely

[Gunner]

Score?

[Kirwan]

@Gunner 7-14

[ACT Crusader]

Just in case someone is thinking about criticising our commentary brilliance, it’s 14-7 Canes
