      @gt12 We could've denied them one and got us one. Either way, I'm happy with the 4 points.

        Best speech. Also the whole thing was in a language I could understand. No thanking sky fairies for losing either.

              Geez the despised players were best on show tonite. Otere was mom for me with second half display but Campbell Prinsep and Blackwell were all outstanding for Canes. Player form really levelling out.

              Blackwell? He gave away one try, and gifted the blues penalty advantage on the way to their 3rd. What game were you watching?

                We looked a lot better when Ruru came in. Nock was slow to the ruck and kicked poorly.

                Much more urgency when he came on. Started running from the base too.

                      @kirwan don't worry, Ruru or Christie will start next week, no need for a combo to build at 9-10

                        Strange game when Ruru injects some pace and accuracy to the play.

                          Half the problem for the Canes is that there is no media here in Wellington holding these coaches to account. Piss poor tactics, poor selections and 4 losses.

                          It’s the worst it’s ever been at the Hurricanes but the coaches somehow get a contract extension. Fucking La La land.

                              Ruru has played plenty, it’s Nock and Christie fighting for the bench.

                                @kirwan Point is, none of them have started consecutive weeks, how are they supposed to build a combo with the 8/10 when you chop and change especially when Rurus game is quite different to the other 2.

                                Edit - I already mentioned in this thread Ruru backed up round 2/3, IMO should have started even after his poor performance in round 3.

                                        A couple of Blues trys were great. Reikos outside break and sweet pass was as good as you’ll see. Perofeta’s step was also great.

                                        And the Blues defence was top drawer.

                                          Stats show we only let in 2 linebreaks. Last week we let the Chiefs make 16 linebreaks.

                                          Kept their main threats quiet for the most part.
