Hurricanes Vs. Waratahs @ Wellington Round 10

[jphil99]

This is gonna be exciting!! Probably the hardest one to call out of all of the rounds fixtures! But I think Canes will win by 4, and a Milner-Skudder hat-trick!

Headline says it all, really, an old-school NZ tight forward who just gets the job done with a minimum of flash or fuss.

Yep WOB, one of the players I like gives everything when he plays, and has got to where he is through hard work! Gotta say good day for Club to have a bye with this game at 2.30.

 

[Jimmy Rumble]

As was mentioned on Rugby HQ, I think this is a season defining game for the Tahs. It's not the end of the world where they currently sit but It's bloody close. Must win, plain and simple.

Betham on Savea will be an interesting match up, he'll have to really be on the ball to stop the bus. Spewing I'm going to be in bed sleeping off the nightwork.

 

[Hawko]

Tahs looking poor so far. Should be at least 0-7

Decent now, looking a bit like the defensive intensity from the Chiefs game last year.

McCutcheon.. what are you doing.

 

[Tomikin]

McCutcheon.. what are you doing.

Bit hard when the whole pack went down..

 

[Tomikin]

7 - 7 All, after Hurricanes in the blindside corner after a good scrum from the canes. Tah's couldnt get off the scrum to cover.

 

[Inside Shoulder]

so Barrett is faster than Betham.
FFS.

Well I doubt Naiyaravoro would've been in the frame.

 

[Tomikin]

well that was quick, Kick off canes gets it, and do a stab kick through, and its a foot race Barett gets to the corner for another try. 14 - 7 Canes

 

[Tomikin]

Good Tah's attack big men running hard doing alot of work. Beale towards the line and hits the boot of a cane and loses it forward..

 

[qwerty51]

I would've given that. How good has Palu been.

 

[FrankLind]

Tahs dominating.

 

[light]

Cheika must have put the boot in at training this week.

Tahs looking 100% committed.

 

[Tomikin]

So Canes try a grubber from there on try line.. Tahs recover and Palu breaks the line and Skelton gets over it out wide from close.

14 - 12 Canes , Foley had a shocker of an attempt.

 

[Godfrey]

Thought Conrad Smith could acquit himself better than throwing the ball in Foley's face after scoring.

 

[Tomikin]

Break by the canes , and then tahs scramble well but Canes on the attack

 

[Tomikin]

And after some pressure Canes go into the corner for Shields in the corner try. Barrett misses the kick 19 - 12 Canes.. Cracking game
