Why wasn't Slade used for that kick?

Punters have regained confidence, HorrorCanes $1.15-$4.75 CruSadists. If it blows out past $5 I might even throw a pineapple at it..........

FFS, of all the times to miss touch from a penalty then lose a lineout on our own throw we had to do it now?!!!

Beaugan off, hopefully just a precaution.

I dislike these NZ derbies. Reminds me how bad the Aus sides are.

Yeah the Tahs suck, they only beat the Canes in Wellington.

Was that a falcon?

He's not trying to knock that on. Strange call.

 

[waiopehu oldboy]

Bullshit call, TT was back on his feet & entitled to play at Savea's pop-up. Justice prevails, kick misses.

But Nisbo's there for balance

FT HorrorCanes 29-23, said I'd be happy with a >12 loss so I guess I must be happy? Enjoy @Dan54, really hope your blokes go all the way after under-performing these last 19 years.............

 

[AngrySeahorse]

Great game.

29-23 at FT

Not enough Whitelocks?

Cracking game - Hurricanes magnificent, Crusaders pretty good. Result was pretty spot on - 5 points for Canes and a BP for the Crusaders. Canes are the real deal.

Geez Dan is happy!!!! Hell I enjoyed that, was as close as I thought it would be, and as good a game as I had hoped!

Tahs fans getting testy. Only matters what happens in the finals.

You do realise that Smith is a Canes man Gwerty(and WOB)? He a Hawkes Bay man

Talking about yourself in the third person?

There's posh

We played some mindless rugby in that 2nd half. Drummond's kicking atrocious. Kick to the Canes back 3 like that and you will get punished.

Tom Taylor was good I thought. Carter seemed to be running a little more freely.

Nadolo's quietest game this season.

Canes played really well. Their counterattack was on song. Ardie Savea was very good and I liked the physicality of both locks.

Coles needs a hug.....

Season over now I reckon. Go Landers.

Yeah, I've never quite understood Smithy's hardon for the CruSadists given he was a Bay boy during his National Bank days, played for CD & D'Auckland in his cricketing days as AFAIK is currently resident in Tauranga..... only explanation I can think of is he's just another northerner who deep down wishes he'd been born a Southern man

 

[qwerty51]

Is he really? He loves Canterbury (I've even noticed it during cricket comms)
