    I have been impressed by Jacob Pierce. He has a great work rate and looks good in the aerial area. However, I have some doubts about his scrummaging as the Blues left side of the scrum was a bit shaky at times against the Stormers.

        TAB has the Blues at $3 for this one and that's probably about right. Hurricanes pretty settled and at home against the Blues travelling back from SA.

        Has Akira been playing any club or other rugby? Tough ask to go under the "He's Shit (or not)"microscope if he's not had some warm-up games. There's not many who can come in cold and not show plenty of rust.

          Hoping for Akira to have a massive game. And hopefully his non-inclusion until now is more about him being tip top at the end of the season, rather than flaming out half way through, granted Hoskin Sotutu has been going well.
          Still want Hurricanes to get the W though.

                  lost his footing, good step by Laumape though, spotted a half gap, Otere slipped and he went straight through

                        Robinson still has a bit of work to do on defense off of scrumball

                              10mins of tackling after coming back from SA. The last quarter is going to be rough

                                    Probably a non issue for you guys but holy shit I cringe at Nisbo and his pronunciation. What's the purpose of Mana Moana celebration for the Canes if the guy who is payed to say their names can't even say them properly.

                                      We're doing well to be only 5 down at this stage, given how much ball they have run at us.

                                      The last 20 though, is going to be ugly
