Chiefs v Hurricanes

@Stargazer Bloody hell that's scarcely believable given his performances evaluated by the knowledgeable spectators that only use their eyes to gauge a players usefulness rather than a bank of computers churning out endless statistics like how many times a player farted, how many times he hoiked within three seconds of the ref blowing his whistle etc etc etc used by those being paid hundreds of thousands of dollars to coach and select a Super Rugby outfit. They all must be counting in his favour as there is nothing I have seen in what must have been 50 trials by torture that would see me picking him ahead of any other contracted loosie on their books.

Do I take it that you don't rate him then?

@Yeetyaah I guess it's in NZR's deal with Adidas that they have to do that, but otherwise that makes no sense at all.

We've had this discussion before.
If adidas wants to pay NZR to show off something in their range, that's just aprt of having a jersey sponsor these days.
It has been made worse by the compacted season though and the different colours are having to be worn when not required. -
Getting in early with my prediction that DMac has a "great" game today, looking great against a miserable Canes backline defense, and kicking off another round of his supporters overreacting and calling for him to start in black.
Canes to win by 2 on the back of a 82nd minute 45m left foot droppie from Jordie.
-
I must say I did find it amusing seeing Reed Prinsep lead the Canes out with the amount of hate he gets on here.

Looks like a strong wind from left to right which cause trouble.
