Hurricanes v Blues

[Tim]

Blues can't catch anything tonight.

[KiwiMurph]

Abysmal by Rieko.

Ugghh, Blackwell.

Kirifi replaces Fifita, so I assume Flanders to 6 and Ardie to 8.

Dumb play by Kirifi to start

[Stargazer]

I expect some impact from big Karl and Ofa.

Blackwell's playing like crap but Fifita is off so he will stay on the full match

[antipodean]

Looping lineout throws like Eklund's are too easy to pick off. They're in the air for too long.

[KiwiMurph]

This is an awful game of rugby.

[Stargazer]

Canes will be hoping IWL and/or Le'aupepe are close to full fitness.

[Dice]

Flanders to lock?

[Tim]

@steven-harris Yeah, you always have confidence in the Crusaders to get it together.

[Winger]

So now they have one lineout jumper in Blackwell. Dumb coaches

[Stargazer]

@dice Prinsep also a possibility.

[Yeetyaah]

Wait, Prinsep as reserve lock?

[Stargazer]

Too easy. Great kick from Black.

[Yeetyaah]

Barrett with a hand injury?

[Tim]

That was like night and day.

[NTA]

Great try. Fast hands and good awareness - missed tackle on Ioane didn't help but the Blues probed well

[antipodean]

Good run by Akira. Nice decision by Black. Canes lucky to not suffer another YC for infringing in the red zone under pressure.

[Nevorian]

nice work Ioane, A.

[Stargazer]

Kirifi not doing himself a favour to get back his starting spot.
