Preseason: Blues v Hurricanes

[Stargazer]

The commentator said Riccitelli scored, but the players were congratulating someone else (James Lay?)?

I gues this shows the limitations of the one camera and low resolution. Can't see properly who is who.

Just dawned on me that only 2 of this Blues starting backline are full squad members. RTS and JRK.

You’d think in this day and age we would be able to see clearly what was going on. Surely someone can provide a better setup than what’s been used for this stream.

Devan Flanders scores the first try!

0 - 7 Canes

Waltzed past Segner who was oblivious.

[Stargazer]

Who scored the third Canes' try? Missed it.

[Daffy Jaffy]

@antipodean Segner is not on. likely Plumtree.

[Higgins]

@Daffy-Jaffy Pretty much the same could be said about the visiting team as well.

[Higgins]

Where does that guy Schwenke stand in the pecking order of hookers in Auckland?

[Daffy Jaffy]

@Higgins Right, I think both teams will look stronger in second half.

Yeap, Plumtree, who is not having a great 40mins so far.

[Daffy Jaffy]

@Higgins I think he plays in the Manawatu now?

[Stargazer]

@Daffy-Jaffy Yep, he was the third choice hooker for Manawatū behind Maile and Tuputupu (who was injured).

Not sure either, I missed it aswell.

[Stargazer]

Hope Harry Godfrey is still in one piece after the Bus hit him.

[Higgins]

@Stargazer Hell they are dipping well down the order to find players who are fit and available. The overseas exodus and injuries must be having a huge impact.

[Bovidae]

@Daffy-Jaffy said in Preseason: Blues v Hurricanes:

Mckenzie also for Plummer. Lisati-Harris starting for Funaki.

You would think someone would have told Dewar as he continued to say it was Nock and Plummer playing.

Tuipulotu certainly looks trimmer and more explosive.

[Daffy Jaffy]

@Stargazer Morgan in the left corner after some forward drives at the line.

I think it was Naiduki that hit him, Savea was waiting for the ball outside Godfrey.

Is that him in the blue 5 jersey?

[Stargazer]

@Higgins Yeah, Schwenke wouldn't have been there if Devery wasn't injured, and Kereru-Symes, Maile and Tuputupu had been available. Heck, he'd probably be behind Syminton, too.
