Ok I think Cheika got the team right. Good having Hoiles and Potgieter out there atm.

 

[Major Spliff Biggins]

Foley slots the pen 29-19. First penalty converted in 58th minute of the match. That's good rugby.

 

[Gagger]

Foley foils try by tackling prop on the line

"but he can't defend"

 

[ACR]

What's the touchie looking at? Foley completely offside. Lucky escape for Waratahs.

 

[Major Spliff Biggins]

24-29. 9 mins to go. Squeaky bum time.

 

[Major Spliff Biggins]

Some piss poor kicking from the Tahs. Evident all half

 

[ACR]

Glen Jackson is a muppet. He pings the Hurricanes when it was a Waratah player that dove on the ball and played it.

 

[FrankLind]

Congrats Tahs. Well deserved.
Champion side.

 

[Forcefield]

Well done Waratahs. Very exciting game.

 

[ACR]

^^^ Yeah. Tahs played well, both teams did for the most part. Hurricanes just made a few too many errors through the whole game.

Bloody Skelton is a one man ruck clearing machine.

 

[Antony]

What a cracker.

Thought the Canes got away with plenty at the ruck. Since when can you lie on the ground and kick at the ball?

 

[Samson]

Great game by both sides. Tough luck 'canes.

 

[Gagger]

With a pace like this the bench will be crucial - not sure we have it

Totally fucking wrong.

 

[Brumby Jack]

Much better from the Waratahs - the forwards in particular after getting bashed by the Stormers last week.

They took their chances and the Hurricanes gave away 2 tries - the stupid grubber leading to Skelton's try and the intercept right on half time, add to that Ardie Savea's brain fart early on.

 

[Quick Hands]

What a great game of rugby. Hurricances are a very very good rugby side, to be them at home is significant for us.

I think Betham has earned himself a place in the starting team - best game I've ever seen him play. Foley's best game of the year by a mile - and thus the whole backline worked well. Palu and Skelton were fantastic.

Scrum was good, but the lineout needs word (although it got better as the game went on)
A win like this can set up the rest of the season.

I thought Jackson reffed the game well, the way it was played suited his style of refereeing and he let the players do their thing.

Thoroughly enjoyed the game. Thought both teams went well, Canes a bit loose at times, but the Tahs played well enough to win. Interesting battles between the 7s, thought maybe Savea may have got it by only about .01 of a point, though it may of been a little more if he hadn't stuffed 1st try. Obviously not real happy with loss, but still pretty pleased ovel all with game.

 

[pissedoffihavetoregister]

great game.
Canes made a lot of breaks in the first 20 mins, could have scored enough to win the game.
We hung in there.
They went quiet after that.
Enjoyed it immensely. Shit kurtly and horne missed a lot of tackles

Man Skelton is playing well.
