Hurricanes v Rebels

[Derpus]

@gunner I would prefer to be in the NRL than this turd of a comp so far, too.

Guess this kind of scoreline looks better than last weeks ones both these teams were involved in

[antipodean]

How did Evans get selected into an All Black squad?

Same shit as the last canes games, just muchos less tries

[Crucial]

Top of the table team this.

[taniwharugby]

@machpants I'm just talking the numbers in the board, not how they got there.

Why is Marshall saying Loo-mape this week?

If we do get a SRTT as the main competition at least I’ll only be worrying about watching Chiefs games and Derbies, so nothing will change from old Super rugby.

Careful you’ll set @Stargazer off…

I wouldn't pick Caleb Clark on this year's performance. Evans, kirifi, were much better last year. Fringe players are often not great after their ABs debut year

@taniwharugby we are just lucky we are playing the Rebels tonight. Worst Canes performance in ages.

[Stargazer]

This is Gareth Evans first game since the Mitre 10 Cup, last year.

[taniwharugby]

@canes4life canes are top of the table bro!

Thank you Mrs Evans

[Canes4life]

@stargazer he’s looked good.

[Machpants]

Tackling percentage great for canes. Sad so many of them totally lacked dominance

[Machpants]

I can see us giving away a try here

Nope thank fuck for that, what a heap of shit

[Canes4life]

@taniwharugby doesn’t paint a full picture at all.

Neither would anyone else.

That they were fringe destroys the myth of New Zealand depth.

Seriously, good to see him back. The Canes are going to need all the experience they can get.

This was pretty dire but they still won by 22 points and got the bonus
