@tim He was totally correct though. But yeah, was there a need to say out loud what everybody is already thinking?

1st thing, an away win first up is great.
2nd thing, a rather scrappy game, that never got going.
3rd thing, A Ioane best player on the park, A Savea bloody good too.
It's good to have two All Black props on the bench.
Blues need to be a lot sharper if they want to challenge for the title.

Nisbett with another cheapshot at an Ioane brother. Time to retire you parochial moron.
They've earnt it

Whats the issue here? Maybe just lighten up and enjoy the win

@delicatessen As his forum protector you should appreciate the feedback. He couldn't even look good against Harry Plummer.

@delicatessen just trying to motivate him?

Best player to me was Aumua by a country mile.
Messy game from both sides during the first half; Blues got their act together to a certain degree during the second half, but the Canes kept on struggling.

but the Canes kept on struggling
Not helped by 2 yellow cards. And Kirifi playing like a fool when he came on. I was unsure why they made this change as Fifita was providing a good attacking and line-out option

@tim pls calm your Aucklandness. Looked pretty clear.
How do you know it veered back before passing the posts?
That was my first thought to explain it, but the 2nd replay showed it never going outside the posts.
Honest question - did anybody watching that 2nd replay think there was any way it didn't go over?I suspect the refs believed it would've hit the posts or certainly didn't pass between them.
Well - yeah, the refs - on the ground watching it - obviously thought that... I just couldn't figure out how that could be, from the replay we saw.
On first view - I had no idea.
On replay - I was all like "insert 17-year-old girl voice" what the fuck, that was all, like, totally over, like, totally.
Disclaimer: I have 2 dogs in this fight: I'd like the Hurricanes to win, but I've tipped the Blues to win. So... don't really give a shit, it honestly was an honest (but drunk) question.@kruse said in Hurricanes v Blues:
