Hurricanes v Blues

[Tim]

Hurricanes have been marking Ioane off the back of the scrum, and leaving a lot of space outside of him. Breaks almost every time.

Cullen: "JGB, Christie & Toala haven't played a lot of time together"

You mean, never!

[Stargazer]

Nice one Toala!

[African Monkey]

@nzzp Itsa clear tactic from us targetting Rayasi but we're not creating the space to do it effectively atm.

And I think @Stargazer just blew a load watching Danny Toala making a break.

Same as our midfield then ... and we're playing our 'B' 9/10 combo.

[Steven Harris]

@Stargazer should be in Argentina..what a talent he’s gonna be for the Magpies...

[Stargazer]

@Steven-Harris Yeah man, I can't wait for the M10 Cup season!

[Tim]

@Stargazer Nice line, nice pass. Is he eligible for the U20 team?

I got a semi too

PUJ needs a slap from fat boy Bishop for not going closer to the posts FFS

[Stargazer]

@Tim Haha, he was in the NZU20 squad for the Oceania tournament, but they decided not to take him to Argentina.

[Dice]

We've gotta get a buffer before Ardie comes on and destroys us at the breakdown.

[Tim]

@Stargazer LOL Philpott.

[taniwharugby]

poor by Lam

[antipodean]

Some nice patience shown by the Blues for that try at half time. Only a few weeks ago you'd swear that they'd panic and find a way to stuff it up..

[Donsteppa]

Can we play the Canes next week please?

Even with players back, this is a great momentum killer

[Stargazer]

@Tim In a way it has worked out well for Toala. Playing his second SR game for the Canes, while he isn't officially a squad member yet.

We did try

Lam looks injured

[Tim]

Did I just watch 40 minutes of rugby without a single bit of niggle from Coles or Akira Ioane?

[African Monkey]

@Donsteppa I respectfully disagree. No need to lose key players in a meaningless game like this.
