Canes vs Lions

[gt12]

Congrats Canes. That's a great effort.

[Stockcar86]

<p>Stoked with the result.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>And the fact that Abbott and Ricitelli didn't get season ending injuries</p>

[Mattasaurus]

Awesome to see and very we deserved! Congratulations to a all you long suffering canes fans have an awesome noght

[African Monkey]

<p>Well done Hurricanes, well deserved.</p>

[Rancid Schnitzel]

Yeeeeeeeeeesssssssss!<br><br>
Who would have thought this Canes team would break the duck. Legends the lot of them.

[No Quarter]

Didn't concede a single try in the playoffs. That's how you win a fucking championship.

<p>crusaders were the last ones iirc..</p>
<p> </p>

Amazing! Defence wins you championships.<br><br>
The Hurricanes are Super Rugby Champions and the All Blacks are RWC (double) Champions!<br><br>
It's a beautiful (Rugby) world!!!!

Tough final. Well done to both sides. <br><br>
Canes simply too good. Defensively excellent and caused huge problems for the Lions 9/10. <br><br>
Loved how TJP played. Sure he took a couple of bad options, but boy he's tough and when it was in the trenches he was in there tackling, ripping ball and talking to his teammates well.<br><br>
Barrett kicked well and was good from the back.

<p>Ding Dong, The Fucking witch is dead, buried, snuffed it</p>

Beauden Barrett should be All Blacks starting First Five and Ardie Savea should be starting All Blacks Openside Flanker.<br><br>
TJP is challenging Aaron Smith for the Half Back spot too.

[Mattasaurus]

Bloody good innings Victor.

<p>Shields off. Huge effort from a much maligned player.</p>

<p>He's not maligned.  He just has tits for hands.  But his defence is excellent.</p>

[mariner4life]

Well fuck me, they actually did it.

Bloody good player over the years. Nice to see him go off to France with a leaving present he'll never forget.

Waiting for them to organise stairs and shit.<br><br>
Fuck it was tight but canes D killed them. I watched BB a lot today. You should see the ground he covers not on TV. Big engine to play 80 but still does the awesome stuff at the end.<br><br>
TJP was immense on cover and you should see how he yellss at the forwards to muscle up in position.<br><br>
Who would have think it. We're had teams of champions but this is a champion team.

[Nepia]

<p>Finally! Who would have thought when I went to the first match in Palmy that it would be more than 20 years before I got to see the Canes win a match.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Bloody hell Sparky, the Canes finally have some goodwill and you're throwing hand grenades at it. :)</p>
