Canes look dangerous down the tram tracks but the brumbies pack seems to have the upper hand (just!)

Are the Brumbies getting paid per kick?

That call was stiff imo. Ball came out on its own and the ref happened to be turning around when slipper picks it up

Why the fuck would you have Rory Scott at 8 when Cale went off and leave Valetini staying at 6.

Very poor last 25 mins from the Brumbies.
Clutch kick by Lonergan to save a BP. Keeps them in 2nd

First half was an arm wrestle, second half was really scrappy for both sides. To the Cane's credit, they had worked the Brumbies out and made easy metres up the guts. I also don't think Lolesio is playing well at all. He seems to be aimless in attack, which is strange for a Larkham coached team.
I must say, I really, really hate decoy runners interfering with defenders and not getting penalised for it. Most teams do it, but Kiwi teams seem to be the most blatant about it. Props to them, they push the limits of the laws to see what they can get away with, but it's something the refs really need to start cracking down on.

I think we saw a bit of Eddie Jones' philosophy in practise tonight. Kick in the first three phases if you haven't scored a try. Does it work? Against the top nations or the best of the NZ sides, I am doubtful.

WFT match thread has barely made it to page 2. Why do Aussie rugby fans not give a shit about their best team?
The beautiful, idiotic Hurricanes vs the all-structure funless & errorless Bumbreeze.
Did the ref have a bus to catch? Ignored all knock-ons, especially from contested kicks, and a grand total of 2 penalties awarded in the 1st half
God knows how J.Savea keeps getting picked. Reverted back to his hapless passenger iteration. Rayasi was a special kind of nonsense too.
Tom Wright must drive the Bumbreeze fans INSANE. The Willie Le Roux of aussie ruggy. 1 part mercurial/2 parts colossal great fuckup.

Lolesio looks like a bloke about to go sign for the Fukushima Fugu and he doesn’t give a shit.

Yep, it really looks like his heart isn't in it.

5:30pm kick offs especially on a Friday are stupid. Even with the shift of people WFH, being able to sit in front of the tv for a lot of us at this time is limited due to; getting home from work, dinner, going to the pub with mates, Friday night kids training (club rugby for kids is Friday night)

I like to focus on the positives after a loss...
So, Frost and Valetini are just magnificent...
That work from Toole for the first try was incredible, but the Brumbies were just unable to get him involved properly for the rest of the game except for throw it out wide to the fast guy which doesn't work when the defence has it covered.
